SHE seeks out useful hacks everywhere, but this lady figures she has found the best yet.
The viral gardening tool was genius for picking up leaves during fall, she said.
But the design of this gadget meant that it would protect her from the effort of bending and stooping for this endless job.
Now she has adopted it, she said it was the end of back-breaking jobs in her garden.
“Trying out the viral gardening tool,” said The Budgeting Mum (@budgetingmumofficial).
She has built a large following of 145,000 on TikTok.
On the platform, she shares useful “money-saving tips, and DIY hacks and bargains.”
It was no different in this post where she showed off her new purchase, with prices starting in the range of $43.
It was super-simple yet super-effective: “No more breaking your back in the garden,” she said.
Then she added: “Here’s a gardening hack for you.”
It was, in simple terms, a two-handed scoop, but on long handles, that collected fallen leaves.
Rather than stooping over time and again, this job could be done from a standing position.
“I’ve been trying out the viral gardening tool that we all need in our lives,” she stressed.
“This is like a rake and dustpan all in one,” was how she described it.
“It lets you pick up fallen leaves without bending down. Genius.”
In the comments section, there was some dissent over her evaluation.
“I’ve got one,” said this person. ” Works well, needs longer handles but easy sorted with some broom handles.”
Another person was definitely a fan: “Love this.”
But there was one unhappy customer: “It’s a good product but an absolute rip-off.”
