Carpet cleaning on a penny

I posted yesterday about the great deal I found on Living Social for the carpet cleaners. However the more I stared at our carpet, and looked and looked, I got a dark deep sinking feeling that the carpet was going to need a WHOLE lot more than steam cleaning in one room. I had read recently about ironing your carpet. Yes you read that right Ironing your carpet. Now don't jsut go do it or you' have a mes. First go and read  about it here. I'll wait.
Now that you've read about how you only need rags ammonia and an iron to clean the whole carpet- aren't you excited!! I'M sooo excited! I can't wait to get the gunk off this rug and stop worrying about what might happen in 2 weeks about the carpet!! So first thing, I will be tacking all those ugly stains that have me scared and nervous about the cost of the cleaning. SO here's my crazy goal- to not even NEED ANY deep cleaning from the carpet cleaners and be able to pay only $50 for the carpet cleaning. When I have budgeted $300 that's quite a few smackeroos to save! That means I might just be able to sneak in some fabric,  but probably more like a fence or actually afford to hire an arborist to cut down the tree threatening my children's' bedroom. But I digress. Let's just say it's kind of silly, but I'm excited to go to town on the rug! Thankfully it's payday and I have grocery money so it's not even going to touch the house budget and yet it might cut down the rug cleaning cost by another $25 dollars! I WILL take pictures!
