**COMMENTS HAVE BEEN CLOSED FOR THIS GIVEAWAY**

When I was contacted and asked if I wanted to participate in this great sale and giveaway, I didn’t hesitate.  I don’t know about you, but my house needs to be vacuumed daily.  Having two long haired dogs and one cat leaves a lot of animal hair that needs to be vacuumed.  I can’t say that I’m always responsible enough to vacuum every day, but I’ve always said that if I had a vacuum that was light enough, I might just use it every day.  I was fortunate enough to be able to test out a Hoover Windtunnel Air Bagless Upright Vacuum.  (pictured below)

The Hoover Windtunnel Air Bagless Upright has two features that work perfectly with my lifestyle.  First, it is light.  If I’m going to drag my vacuum out of the closet day in and day out, I want a light weight vacuum that easy to maneuver throughout the house.  And this meets that need.  The second feature that is perfect for my life is that this vacuum is bagless.  Having three animal babies that leave adorable dust bunnies (blech), I find that I have to change our vacuum’s bag very often.  So having a bagless vacuum is such a luxury to me!  I just have to empty the canister into my trash and voila. I’m done.  I love that with this vacuum, I won’t have to spend extra money on vacuum bags!

Right now, ALL Addicted to Saving readers will score 30% off Hoover’s entire site when you use coupon code FRIENDS26.  This coupon code works on new vacuums, carpet washers, hard floor cleaners, steam cleaners, air purifiers, vacuum bags and so much more!  To view Hoover’s products, go HERE.  At checkout, paste coupon code FRIENDS26 to drop your total by 30%!  (This coupon code is valid through 11/19/12.)


AND – right now, one lucky Addicted to Saving reader will win a Presto 2-in-1 Cordless Stick Vacuum!  The Presto 2-in-1 Cordless Stick Vacuum retails for $99 and has some awesome features listed below:

The new Hoover® Presto™ 2-in-1 Cordless Stick Vac features the convenience of two machines in one with a powerful cordless hand and stick vac combo. Keep hard floors and carpet clean with the quick and easy stick vac; release the powerful hand vac with one touch for daily spot cleaning. The 3-in-1 detachable tool makes it easy to clean hard-to-reach areas. This 2-in-1 Stick Vac features 14.4V of cordless power and true cyclonic technology for greaat cleaning performance. The vacuum includes a rinsable filter made with HEPA media. The Presto™ Cordless 2-in-1 Stick Vac offers the ultimate in convenience with a folding handle and charging base for easy and convenient storage in tight spaces.

  4. Paula Gillespie says

    I vacuum 2 days a week and I have to borrow my mother’s due to mine quitting months ago. Would be nice to win one!!!

  5. Julie says

    I vacuum at least once a day (then hover over the tumbleweeds with my dustbuster). I have three black animals and the fur is neverending! I’ve been dying for one of these!

  7. Allison Taber says

    Well at the moment it is HOPEFULLY once a week. My vacuum doesn’t really work at the moment so i have been borrowing my parents vacuum. Not an ideal situation but it works until the baby comes.

  8. Tammie says

    I vacuum 1 to 2 times a week. With a dog and a toddler, the more I can vacuum the better. 🙂

  20. Sylvia Hix says

    I probably need to vacuum once a day, but people in this house are lucky if I vacuum about every 3-4 days.

  26. Jessica Jewell says

    I try to vacuum at least 2 or 3 times a week. Usually it ends up being once a week. Maybe twice a month on the stairs.

  33. Tia says

    I vacuum once a week or more if needed, I’m kinda lucky I only have carpet on the stairs and in the bedrooms otherwise it would be multiple times a day with my kiddos lol

  35. veronica Glen says

    My 4 yr old would love to vacuum everyday, he LoVes vacuums, however about 2-3 times a week is the norm.

  39. Christina Warner says

    I vacuum almost daily bc I have an 11 month old who is ALWAYS trying to put everything she finds in her mouth!!

  40. Liza Roylance says

    I vacuum 8 days a week. I’m kind of a freak like that. I measure how my day went by how many times the vacuum gets pulled out. Today was an 8. My vacuum is on it’s last leg for some reason.

  48. arupert says

    With a little one at home that loves Cheerios I find myself pulling out the vacum at least once a day.

  49. JUDY WARD says

    I vacuum about 2-3 times a week all over and as needed additionally per room. My vacuum is about shot so thank you for this offer to win one. I have done/shared etc all of the above to get the extra entries!

  51. Kelly says

    There is just 2 adults and no pets so we only vacuum once a week in the rooms we use. We have 3 empty bedrooms and formal living and dining room that is barely used anymore. Those get vacuumed once a month or as needed.

  60. Julie Stinchfield says

    I vacuum downstairs every day and upstairs once a week (no shoes or pets or food upstairs!)

  67. Jennifer Pagliai says

    We vacuum every single day!!! I’ve been using a old vacuum from our college days. We now have added 3 children & 2 dogs to the family. Need to win this!!!

  70. Jj furr dean says

    Vacuum every other day..instead of sweeping I had back surgery and ita easier to vacuum 🙂

  71. Ashley Anderson says

    I vacuum daily! I have a four year old and a husband to clean up after. 🙂 I’m in need of a new vacuum!

  74. linda b says

    Every other day. Although with 2 kids, 2 cats and a dog it probably could be done more often!

  77. Tammy says

    I should vacuum daily. But only get around to the entire house once a week. But I use my hand held cordless vacuum all the time for quick clean ups. I would love to have a cordless upright!

  88. Krystal says

    I try to vacuum more than once a week. The thing I hate vacuuming the most is my stairs! It’s a chore to drag my big ol’ vacuum up the stairs.

  89. Angie says

    I usually vacuum 2-3 times a month but right now I’m not vacuuming at all as my vacuum got left behind in our move. I love Hoover vacuums!

  91. Angela says

    I vacuum once a week! Would love this because my old Hoover windtunnel is on it’s last legs and this would be a dream!

  98. Sandy C. says

    Because I have a bad back, my husband vacuums usually once a week…what a great husband! However, if I had a lightweight vac like this, I might be able to help out too!

  121. Francine ONeill says

    My husband usually vacuums once a week and a new vacuum would be just the ticket as he is handicapped and our old one is hard to push.

  123. samantha garcia says

    I vacuum everyday. I have to cuz my little one is always dropping food or other stuff. Would love this i have a cheap $40 vacuum thats starting to fall apart.

  124. Nicole Aker says

    I vaccuum about once a week, but if had a lightweight vaccuum like this one that was easy to carry up and down stairs, I would vaccuum more often!! Thanks, also, for the code for Hoover.com. I’m looking into buying a new vaccuum AND carpet cleaner=)

  127. Kimberly says

    Once a week – moving into a new house with three kids so I would LOVE the new vac! Thanks for all you do!!! 🙂

  132. Sally Trueadale says

    I vacuum daily and sometimes twice! With a pet in the home and 3 kids and neighborhood kids my floors are in constant need of vacuuming!

  135. Tina Blevins says

    I try to vacuum about once a week. We only have carpet in the bedrooms. If i had a cordless i would use it daily instead of sweeping.

  150. Courtney says

    I vacuum 3 times a week with a broken vacuum that is literally falling apart. I fixed it last week with scissors! LOL

  155. robyn shook says

    I vacumn at least 2 times a week.My capret is ild ans looks bad.So i vacumn to make ir look better.u

  167. tiffany vdb says

    i wish i could say I vacuum regularly, but with 2 little ones running around, and one on the way, I just don’t have the energy! I’m lucky if it’s every other week 🙁

  177. Stacey says

    I should vacuum every day but it’s usually ever other day. I loooove to vacuum and love floor cleaning supplies! (I know, super weird) When I was 15 or 16 my parents bought me a Swiffer Sweeper for Christmas and I was THRILLED! …Again, super weird, I know. Needless to say, I’d love this!

  181. Patti says

    Two adults, no pets, no shoes worn in the house (socks only) – so I vacuum AND mop once a week.

  182. Sherry says

    Couple times a week downstairs. Upstairs more like every other week, unfortunately. The exception is if people are coming over or my 7 year son gets in trouble (It’s something he can do, making it my pet chore for him.)

  185. Chris S. says

    I vacuum approximately 5 days a week. With 3 dogs and 4 kids, it is a job that has to be done often. Otherwise, we would be living in a pile of dirt and dog hair.

  188. Emily says

    All these post about vacuuming daily and multiple times a week make me feel bad!! I vacuum the whole house once every two weeks if I’m lucky!

  191. Julie Johnston says

    We vacuum once every two weeks if we are lucky. It should be more often but our vacuum is heavy, large, and a pain to use. 🙁

  196. Kyra says

    Downstairs I vac every other day but upstairs I can stretch it to like twice a week. My vacuum is just too heavy to haul up and down the stairs, oh and actually doing the stairs…ugghh!

  197. megan says

    Almost daily! Sometimes 2+ a day, i swear my dog has shed more over the last few days then the last 3 mos total!

  205. Carrie R. says

    I should vacuum everyday with 2 little boys, but on a good week I probably vacuum 3 or 4 times.

  207. April Ketels says

    With 3 dogs, a cat, & 2 children vacuuming is a daily must do chore… Sometimes I even have to bring out the shop vac cause my upright is elderly…

  219. chelsea says

    I TRY to vaccum all high traffic area (living room and hallway) s daily and the others rooms twice a week .

  224. Nataasha Mio says

    Hello! I would love to win this for my mom. We vaccum once or twice a week, depending on how much time we have on our hands.

    Happy Holidays!

  225. Sarah compton says

    I vacuum 2 times a week, but I would definitely do it more often with a cordless that the kids could help with!

  242. P.KOPEC says

    I usually vacum twice a week, more if dh drags in leaves, grass or dirt from his current activity…

  250. Debra Robarts says

    I vacuum my wood and tile floors once a week; nothing like a Hoover to get the job done! I “liked” your page on facebook and “Pinned it” on Pinterest, hoping many others will follow my enthusiasm and pick up a Hoover!

  257. Sandy Henry says

    I always by “duds” for sweepers. Vacuum at least once a week and sure would like a dependable one!

  259. Heather Muisener says

    We vacuum at least 5 times a week. we have 4 dogs and 5 cats of which are all long haired lol And if its not their hair we are cleaning up its all the dirt that they rolled in outside and decided to bring in 🙂

  268. Debra says

    Every time I get the Vacuum cleaner out my Husband takes over. November 19th is my Birthday I am sure I will not be vacuuming that day.

  275. Jenny L says

    I’d like to vacuum once a week but with 5 kids in the house, I have no choice but to do it every other day.

  279. julie says

    too often! 2 or 3 times a week. I am suprised my pets have any hair left with all the stuff I pick up

  280. debs d says

    it would be amazing to win this!! looks so light weight and easy to use. 5 times a week i vaccum

  282. Robert W says

    I never vacuum… But, I think my wife does a couple times a week. We have little ones, so she tries to keep the floors clean. I would love to win this for her!

  288. sandy weinstein says

    i dont vac much, for a few reasons, i have 3 dogs and as soon as i vac, 2 min. later i have a mess again….and i dont have a really good vac cleaner….i had a dyson but returned it twice, was terrible. looking to get a really good one.

  296. Cyndi says

    I vacuum at least 3 times a week but I should do it more often than that with 3 animals and 4 kids! Thank you for the great giveaway!!

  300. Nicole says

    we just moved to a home with carpet…so I have nothing to vacuum with unless I borrow. In the old place I would sweep every day. Have a toddler and a baby..there is always a mess

  301. Lindsey says

    I vaccuum twice a week, otherwise it gets pretty gross. We have a cat, a 4 yo, and a 10 month old.

  307. ruth churchill says

    I vaccum every single day, sometimes more than that. It’s rare that I miss a day, even on weekends. I can’t stand a walking on a dirty floor!! 🙂 Plus I have 3 small crumb makers. 😉

  313. Danielle R says

    I vacuum every single day. I have to. I have an English Bulldog that sheds 365 days a year in massive quantity. He and my mini Schnauzer also bring in lots of leafs and other goodies from outside and I just vacuum all of that up. I want a stick vac so bad because I’m tired of lugging my heavy vacuum around. Cordless would be a bonus!
    Thanks for the opportunity to win!

  317. Kathleen says

    I have two of my own dogs and am fostering two puppies so I vacuum two or three times a day. Really. Don’t ask me how much I have to mop though – it’s unbelievable.

  318. Brianne says

    I vacuum at LEAST once a day. I’m a foster mom to an infant and have my own child so keeping a clean floor is important. 🙂

  325. Melissa M. says

    I vaccum everyday. I have two children, one has allergies and the other asthma so vacuuming is a must.

  327. Ali S says

    This time of year, I need to vacuum at least twice a week in the living room and the entryway or our house would be overrun with pine needles!!

  329. Bobbi says

    We have tile or hardwood throughout the house, so with two kids under 4 and a dog we are constantly sweeping. We had a great vacuum for carpet or hardfloors that we used about once a week…it lasted about five years until one day the handle broke (making it very difficult to use since it was a fairly heavy one) and it finally broke completely a few months ago. This would be a huge blessing in our house!

  331. Carla E says

    I vacuum everyday, sometimes more than once a day. I have 3 kids that think our rugs are place-mats and leave crumbs everywhere!

  335. Ladonna says

    I have a dog with a hair problem. I vacuum the floor every day & the furniture once a week. I have a very very heavy Kirby & would love a new vac.

  336. Joyce Camp says

    To be honest with you, I don’t usually vacuum. My husband has that lucky shore and he usually does it about once a week. With leaves being tracked into this house this time of year, it needs it more and he will usually do it without my asking him.

  342. Stephanie says

    I vacuum 2 or 3 times a week. If I had a vacuum that didn’t suck (in a bad way) then I would likely do it more often.

  345. Diana Cannon says

    With a daycare and a lawn care business I have all ages of dirty boys and girls running throughout my home hourly. Vacuuming every day is an understatement! Between the dirt and kiddie grime I usually hit the floors twice a day!

  346. Diana Cannon says

    I did these!

    I try to vacuum once a week! We have 2 Shih tzus, 2 cats, and 4 year old twins. I would vacuum every day if I could!!

  350. Lindy says

    I have a lot of tile which I sweep but our bedrooms are carpet and they don’t get vacuumed as often as they should! Especially since my big vacuum is broken 🙁

  351. Wendy Vincent says

    I have a 2 year old and a 5 year old, so I vacuum almost daily! They’re most definitely worth it, though.

  358. Derrek says

  364. Stephanie Rose says

    I dont vacuum i sweep do to hard wood floors but i sure would love to see if it works on hard wood.. Sweeping sucks!!

  365. Nichole Avila says

    The older I get the less I vacuum! or maybe its the older and less messy the kids get? Anyway at least once a week!

  369. Abby Exline says

    I vacuum EVERYDAY!! i have 3 kiddos with 2 under 4! and a beagle hound… oh yea a husband that is MESSY!!! I have to vacuum under my table after every meal, that poor rug is not going to last!

  372. devib says

    Once a week with a regular vacuum, but my Roomba hits the floor about 4 days a week to pick up dog hair and baby debris…

  373. grace hubbard says

    With two wolf hybrid dogs there is hair everywhere…all the time. So vacuuming is done on the regular…and is a pain with the hand me down vacuum I have. Gotta love being a broke college kid.

  375. brenda rodriguez says

    with three chows I vaccume every day. but first I sweep up dog hair and pick up the heavy stuff from the rugs!!! would love a vaccume that really does the work without pre vaccume help!!! that doesnt cost a fortune.or weigh a thousand pounds because I had a total knee replacement that has unfortunately leaves me with limited mobility.

  376. Amekins says

    I vacuum two days a week, however I should vacuum everyday because I have two corgis who shed like crazy!! I have allergies so I need to do a better job of vacuuming and stop being lazy!

  378. christy says

    I am a single grandmother raising two special needs grandsons and 1 four-legged brother. I can’t vacuum enough! But I vacuum at least three times a week, more depending if the weather is warm and the boys are in & out.
    ps; your website is a God send, on my limited funds I have been able to stetch that last dollar. Thank you

  381. Susie Clayman says

    We try to vacuum every week or two. 2 cats and 1 dog (soon to be 2 dogs) – it needs it more often but nursing school has taken over my life!

  383. Tammy says

    I vaccum once a week, but have cleaning help twice a month. So it averages out to 4 times a month.

  390. Tammy Latchford says

    I have 5 dogs, 4 cats, and do daycare. I have Pergo/linoleum everywhere and I vacuum every single day to keep up!

  391. Allison Greene says

    I don’t vacuum as often as I should. Maybe once every 3 weeks? I probaby would more often if I had a nice vacuum, the one I have now is a pain.

  392. Alyssa says

    We have two big and very hairy dogs, so we try to vaccuum everyday. We have to at least do it every other day.

  394. Hippie4ever says

    Daily with a stick vac, that does an ok job and when it looks like it needs it with the larger slightly better vac.

  396. Jennifer B says

    I don’t vacuum that often, but my Mom does once a week! With two cats, I definitely need to help out more.

  401. Michelle P says

    I try to vacuum once a week. But I would love to more if I had a lightweight vacuum to bring out.

  402. Misty says

    Vacuum…Well he’s my best friend. I get to visit with him everyday…2 boys and 2 sweet doggies = plenty of droppings!!

  404. Kerri R. says

    I vacuum about once a week or so. I have mostly hard words so I don’t need to vacuum as much as when I had carpet!

  408. Carrie Hellbusch says

    I try to vacuum at least once a week, but with a toddler and one on the way it isn’t easy to keep up with!!

  409. Angela Killingsworth says

    I use my husbands shop vac from the garage…so I pull that thing in about once a month!

  415. Jaime says

    I never vacuum but we badly need one! Last vacuum we had one of our dogs ate
    The cord! We do dog rescue and ended up owning 5 dogs and 3 cats a lightweight smaller vacuum would be awesome

  419. Cyndi says

    I vacuum about every other day. With 4 children, 2 dogs that love to play and roll in the dirty leaves and grass, and a guinea pig whose hair falls out just if you look at her, vacuuming opportuinites are endless at our house 🙂

  423. Joni Bennett says

    I vacuum every day lol. With 5 kids and 4 animals that run in and out I absolutely have to vacuum every day =)

  426. Anita Brown says

    I vacuum once a week but although it is only me, I have a dog, cat and alot of carpet to clean. That job would make that chore so much easier and would also mean a much cleaner house for me. Since I have asthma, a thorough vacuum cleaner is invaluable.

  430. Yvette S. says

    I have two kids and so I like to vacuum every other day to get rid of the crumbs or dirt that they drag into the house. My kids love to help vacuum too!!

  434. Jo Wagner says

    I vacuum once a week. I’d do it more but my current vacuum sucks (or doesn’t suck) so it drives me nuts.

  436. Crystal Pennington says

    I vacuum every other day. It’s because I walk around the house in my stocking feet.
    Any company must remover their shoes at the door.

    I know you said keep it short…I’m hard headed!!! giggling

  437. Robyn Crist says

    I vacuum everyday. I had a swifter sweeper and recently it died. I was debating on buying a vacuum or getting a new one. With a house of 4 and a dog there are always messes to clean up!

  440. Mary Leonard says

    Try to vacuum once a week, but mine is broken and have a tile house with two little ones and a dog! Would love this!! 🙂
