Moms love to buy a Kmart so cheap it makes kids’ toys and sweatshirts look like new again.
Shoppers have found an alternative use to the retailer’s $3.25 Slicker Wooden Pet Brush for detangling matted fur on cats or dogs.
A mom has ‘resurrected’ her 10-year-old daughter’s beloved stuffed bunny that she has slept with every night since she was born using the handy tool.
She had put the tattered and worn out rabbit through the wash to get rid of the dirt but only when she brushed it with a Kmart brush did it come out very clean.

Kmart pet brush to the rescue. A Melbourne mother wrote in a mail to the Kmart Home Décor and Hacks Australia Facebook page.
Babies sleep with them every night and they have been born since birth. My eldest daughter is now 10 but now looks brand new.
She had soaked the stuffed bunnies overnight and then put them in the washing machine before giving the pet brushing.
Hundreds of impressive results have been amazed by the budget trick being described as “incredible” and “genius.”

Hundreds of people were amazed at the amazing results calling the budgeting trick “incredible” and “genius” while many more tried it themselves.
“Oh my gosh you should try this. Our bunny looks worse than yours,” wrote one mom.
One replied, “Thanks for sharing, I’ve been trying to get our business back to what’s good for ages, and now I’m going to give this brush a try.”
“Oh my God I have never loved hacking more!!!” A third added.
However, not everyone’s kids wanted their stuffed toys to go through the makeover.
My daughter is very attached to the Jellycat bunny, too. I just showed this to her and asked if she wanted me to clean her rabbit too. She said no, she wanted hers to be “old and special”. Good thing I asked! One of the parents laughed.

The clever hack circulated among the members of the group as many were trying it out on all sorts of toys, clothes and household items. The mother used the brush on her daughter’s chopstick
Would anyone else’s baby fall apart if we removed the “beloved” fur from their rabbit? We bought my son a backup just in case he was smaller. ‘He could feel the difference in the softness and would always pick his old bunny,’ said another woman.

“ I decided to bring my daughter’s ‘Udi’ to try to spruce up the underside of the Sherpa in preparation for the cold weather. I must say I am very pleased! ex-single mom said mail.
She added, “It takes a while but my daughter is happy to do it on her own because she found it a very fun activity.”
Others have cleaned their sheepskin rugs as well as fluffy couch cushions with budget buys report with impressive results.
Best tool ever!! One pet owner said: I have to see how to clean my cat hair carpet now.
