Pure Essentials Giveaway
This contest has ended.
Motherhood is a dirty job, but somebody has to do it...including the laundry. When Proctor & Gamble contacted me asking if Slurping Life would like to give away a basket of their Pure Essentials laundry products, I screamed replied "yes". Really, I get as excited about free laundry products as I do a free camera because...well, just look...
Tide, Downy, and Bounce Pure Essentials are made with Baking Soda (Tide), Aloe Vera (Downy/Bounce) and comes in two fresh scents – White Lilac and Lemon Verbena with Citrus Extracts that leaves clothes feeling clean, soft and fresh. If laundry products can remove the stains my boys create and leave our laundry smelling fresh (and these products do), it's good stuff.
The prize pack includes the following items:
- 50 oz. Tide Pure Essentials
- 44 oz. Downy Pure Essentials
- 70 Sheet Bounce Pure Essentials
- 27 oz.Febreze Fabric Refresher
- Wicker Basket
- Bath Towel
For your chance to win...
- Simply leave a comment on this post by midnight EST Sunday, December 16.
- One comment per person. Duplicate comments will be deleted.
- Make certain I have an email address to contact you should you win.
- You do not have to be a blogger to win, but I need an email to contact you.
- This giveaway is open to US residents only.
- The winner will be chosen from comments via luck of the draw using random.org and announced Monday, December 17.
Good random luck of the draw to each of you.
It is not a requirement to enter, but if you choose to blog about the giveaway and link to this post and P&G / Pure Essentials, we would so feel the love.





















Wahoo! Sounds great, count me in!

Hey Melody! I love your blog header dressed up for Christmas! I need to get creative with mine, but I have no idea how to do it!

Oh, count me in! I'm sure I don't do nearly as much laundry as you do with those boys... but I do have one messy little toddler!!! (and one messy husband, too!)
Posted by: Colleen | December 03, 2007 at 03:09 PM
If Proctor & Gamble contacted me, I would have kept the giveaway all to myself. :)
My 4-year old changes at least 5 times a day (and that's not counting putting on pajamas at night).

Dear Random Number Generator,
Please know that I did 6 loads of laundry yesterday, and the pile to be washed doesn't even have a dent in it. I really need this prize. You've never picked me before. But in the spirit of holiday giving, be a dear and pick me!
Thanks,
