Magic Eraser

Going to bed, but had to share this. We are moving, so are doing some heavy-duty cleaning to get our old place ready to sell. Someone mentioned we should try Mr. Clean's "Magic Eraser" to get scuff marks and such off the walls. I was skeptical. But the product is aptly named. Amazing, really. It's just a lightweight sponge. Doesn't feel abrasive, doesn't feel soapy. And yet you wet it, wring it out (which makes it almost completely dry), do a little rubbing, and marks I could have sworn were permanent just disappear. It works exactly like a... well... magic eraser. A few links:
