A mum felt tired because she was the only one to clean up around the house. So she came up with a new game to keep her happy as she goes. She put money under the litter with tape around the house, including toilet rolls and pieces of paper on the floor.
When the money wasn’t taken away, she added the prize money. She said that anyone who decided to lend a helping hand could get a small fortune. Unluckily for her family, they don’t join in the litter picking, leaving only their hard-working mum to take back her own money.
The mum posted the idea to Facebook with a photo of the toilet roll. It was lying on the bathroom floor, and showed it was there for full seven days. She wrote online, "Needing something to inspire kids and husbands to tidy up around the house? Clearly this game hasn’t worked here yet, maybe one day. For now, I’ll keep raising the prize money, knowing it’s coming back."
One said, "My kids would probably pick it up, take out the money, throw it back on the floor and forget about the whole thing." A second replied, "No one will pick them up even if it saves their life." Another mum has used a way to get her child to lend a hand with chores around the house. After she changed her laundry area, she left a large sign to everyone else living in the home that reads,"Put your laundry away, or I'll beat you. Love mum."
