Thanks for the comment Brian. I might add, that occasionally, you might have to go in and give it a blast with the compressed air again as over time, it’ll get fouled up again.

I’m so glad I came across your site. It’s hard to find good frugal blogs on the internet. My other favorite money saving sites are

1. BlackFriday
2. Groupon
3. Frugallivingblog

I also just read your post about cleaning a Wacom Intuos3 mouse. Saved me a good sized chunk of change. I am also a Graphic Designer (sort of) but I only use the pen for a few crucial types of tasks, whereas the mouse serves me better for everything else. Thanks so much for posting those instructions. I imagine there are scores of other designers using the Intuos3 who have been saved by your blog.

I may just add you to my RSS reader. We can all stand to live more frugally these days. Thanks again!

I don’t plant a huge garden. Our family only uses the basic vegetables. I’m planning on green beans, onions, cucumbers, 3 varieties of peppers, and possibly a potted grape tomato plant – my soil does NOT like tomato plants regardless of what I do with it.

Hiya Ryan,

That makes me happy that I could help you out. I live in Japan and getting a hold of spares is especially difficult. I was at the point that if I ruined the mouse it didn’t matter because the performance was so poor anyway. But again, I’m glad to help. Oh, and just so you know, there are places selling the intuos3 mouse for less than $139. If you try google shopping, you’ll see prices starting at $53 and going up to $139. I’m not vouching for the vendors… just saying there are options.

My wife tells me that I need to be a little frugal sometimes, and she’s right. But I want what I want. I don’t go looking for sales or reduced pricing or anything like that, and that burns her up because she’s frugal. I really enjoyed reading your blog.

I just read the Cleaning a WACOM Intuos3 mouse article. Absolutely wonderful! I was ready to send my mouse out a window, as the “left click” button was starting to give me trouble. I am an Illustrator & Graphic Designer, so I have been using the pen mostly, but still use the mouse for day to fay computer navigation. I was on the verge of getting a new one myself, which was going to set me back $139 just for the mouse! Thanks to your blog, I have it up and clicking like the thing just came out of its factory box.

Thanks again!
