I haven't done a "Favorite Product of the Day" in a while, and I thought I would go ahead and jump on that... there are many things that I really can't live without (and quite a few that, honestly, I could never see again and really wouldn't care). One of the most important things in my daily/weekly regimen is ... Tide. I don't remember a time that we didn't use it at my house growing up, and even though it is a little more expensive than some of the other brands of detergent, I have found that it is TOTALLY worth it. I have saved more clothes from the "turn into dustrags" pile using Tide than I could possibly imagine. Not to mention, when I take the kids' clothes to the consignment shop, I always get "Wow, these are in GREAT shape!"... therefore increasing my consignment value!
The other thing that I totally love about them is their "Loads of Hope" program. This is a fantastic idea and whomever came up with it, well, they deserve a raise. This program has trucks of washers and dryers that head into disaster regions (right now they are in Tennessee) and sets up for days at a time for people to do laundry. That's it, and it's really that simple. If you are involved with a natural disaster, and manage to escape from your house with three sets of clothing, wouldn't it be nice to know that those clothes are at least clean? They only have so many of these trucks, so they also team up with laundromats in the area as well to offer the same services. How cool!?!?! Not to mention, you can buy one of these groovy retro t-shirt to help support the program
here. They've been to Galveston, TX, North Dakota, Louisiana, San Diego... read more about the program and individual stories here, at
