This giveaway is closed. Congratulations, Maureen!

I knew it was coming, I knew it was supposed to be small. When I got the box, it was even smaller than I thought. When I opened the package, I was in for an additional surprise – the detergent only took up half the packaging!

That is right, P&G has presented detergent in a small size. Same number of loads, just smaller packaging!

What is the Benefit for You?

  • Smaller packaging which is easier for carrying and storing
  • Less and smaller trash/waste in your garbage
  • Enhanced stain removal
  • In your Favorite P&G Brands – Tide, Gain, Cheer, and Deft

What is the Benefit for the Environment?

  • 22 million pounds of packaging saved annually
  • Four million GJs of energy saved each year (quivalent of the energy needed to provide 34 thousand average homes with electricity annually)
  • Three billion liters of water saved during production and disposal (enough to fill up to 1,224 Olympic-sized swimming pools)

Sounds like a win-win situation to me!

    I don’t really have any secrets. I just use a stain remover, spray it on the stain, and let it sit for a long time

  5. Maricele says

    To fight tough stains, I always presoak and wash everything in cold water. Washing in cold water helps to save on my gas bill too! :)

  9. Sylvia Wiginton says

    My best go to stain release solution is using OXY to soak clothes that have been stained. In my experience, this even helps get permanent Sharpie marker out of clothes!

  11. chantelle says

    Entry #4 I retweeted on Twitter. Thank you so much for hosting this giveaway

  14. Maureen says

    I try to clean the stain as soon as possible to increase my chances of getting it out!

  17. Lydia B says

    my favorite stain removal trick a paste of water and baking soda. Smear on the stain and rub in and let set for a few minutes then wash as normal.

  22. crystal h. says

    I like to pre-soak my clothes in a little bit of detergent before I wash!

  23. Cheryl says

    I use Spray N Wash Stain Stick and my laundry can sit for a week and the stains still come out!!

  26. Cheryl M says

    for stains that are “missed” DON’T put them in the dryer..immediately use stain stick or detergent paste on stain when wet and rewash as soon as possible.

  28. Yolli says

    I wash everything except whites in cold water. Also, I use HE detergent in a standard washer. My clothes still come out clean with less suds.

  34. Kay H says

    My favorite cleaning tip for stains is to try the new tide stain boosters. I’m usually a Gain girl but I tried these Tide Boosters on my husbands dirty work clothes and they worked great and smelled amazing. I’m starting to try Tide products now and I really like them!

  41. Suze says

    My favorite stain fighting trick is Stain Stick. I always put it on a stain before putting the item in the wash and it works every time. I am already a fan on Facebook and get the daily e-mail.

  42. Allison says

    I tweeted this. I follow you. My secret is to use baby wipes to take a small stain out ( I always have baby wipes on hand)

  43. jamie says

    mine isnt really a secret but i rub oxyclean on the tough stains and let them sit while i sort the laundry and they come out great!

  45. Lee Ann says

    Hairspray removes ink; peroxide removes blood. BTW, my middle schooler did a Science Fair project on the effectiveness of laundry detergents. Tide and Cheer tied for best stain-removing effectiveness. Tide really is more effective than cheaper laundry detergents. (I use cheaper laundry detergent for towels, which tend to not have stains.) With a family of 6, I do a LOT of laundry!

  47. Elena says

    The process or secret I have is to line dry clothes, they seem to last so much longer and not look so worn.

  54. jaimee says

    my fav stain fighter secret: use Dove bar soap to get blood stains (esp fresh) out. Just wet area & rub with wet bar, and then rub stained area together well & rinse.

  58. Danielle Pontow says

    favorite cleaning process is to make sure your sort your clothes.. Its a necessity if you dont want your clothes to be ruined

  64. LeAnn says

    I work in the medical field. Best way to get blood out of clothes is using saline and massage into the stain (best not to let dry first).

  66. Just Coupons says

    I keep a small bottle of Dawn dish soap in my laundry room for stains. It works amazingly well.

  73. Katy p says

    I try to treat stains as soon as possible and use Shout advanced and oxi clean spray.

  77. Alyssa Hoskins says

    My stain removing secret is #1 Don’t ever use Spray N Wash. It NEVER works! #2 I use SHOUT it always works.

  85. Michelle says

    I use peroxide and toothpaste with a whitener and baking soda. Make a paste and spread it on.

  89. Sunnie says

    I wash my clothes in cold water, except underwear and I also dont use a dryer sheet/fabric softener on towels.

  90. amy h says

    I use borax in my wash to boost my Tide’s effectiveness, works great, even on stinky work out clothes!

  93. erin says

    Well, I don’t have any new ideas (well, from the ones already given) … I really just like to soak my clothes in Oxy Clean. But, I still have not found anything to help with chocolate (mainly chocolate ice cream and syrup!). Thanks!

  94. Debbie P says

    I don’t have a secret, I just normally put stain remover on the article of clothing right after it gets stained.

  97. Tasha S says

    I like to soak overnight and add a squirt of Dawn Dish Soap for my hubby greasy clothes

  101. traci s says

    i dont have any secrets, wish i did lol, just use lots of shout and let set overnight then wash as normal

  105. Lori says

    I take a 5 gal bucket and fill it with white baby clothes stained with spit up/formula/poopy ect.
    I add the hottest water that i can draw from the tap (its so hot you can’t put your hand in it) and a lot of oxi-clean powder- stir with a broom handle, and let it sit overnight. Next day dump in the washer and run as usual. Old and/used baby clothes like new again!

  108. Lori says

    My son drew on his shirt with a sharpie and I got it out with rubbing alcohol. PS he also drew on the rug and wall

  112. Erin R says

    I use my own homemade laundry detergent. The basic solution is AMAZING! Whiter whites, brighter colors…LOVE it! Then I throw vinegar into the fabric softner thingie (yea, can’t think of the name of it! lol). It works as a great fabric softner but also takes out static!!!
