Tide Laundry Detergent is my favorite.  It cleans the clothes so much better than other laundry detergent, and I LOVE the scent.  Especially Tide's Mountain Spring scent.  When you wash your clothes with it, it makes the entire house smell terrific.

Another reason I really like Tide is because I entered a contest, and won a YEAR worth of it.  Which was a really terrific prize for me to get because I normally can't afford Tide unless it's on sale.  Now I'm sure we'll be spoiled when this year is up and I'll have to buy it from now on.  :-)

Aside from how great is smells, it's also great because it's 2X concentrated.  This way you use 1/2 as much as you normally would and you still get your clothes just as clean.  One small cap will remove almost any stain and get your clothes clean and smelling fresh.

There is a measurer right inside the cap.  For large loads, fill to line 2.  For medium loads, fill to line 1.  If your clothes are really dirty, you may want to use just a little extra.  This detergent works fabulous on really rubbed in stains like the ones on my kid's baseball uniforms.  They come home with grass and dirt literally drenched into the fabric!  But after I wash them in Tide, the stain is gone.  (Just don't wait to long to wash them or that stain may never go away)

I love everything about this detergent, except the price.  Tide is one of the most expensive laundry detergents on the market.  For a 64 load bottle, you can expect to pay around $ 15.00.  For a 32 load bottle, it's about $ 9.99.  However, you can find coupons lots of places on-line if you look.  And if you get lucky, like me, you just may win some for FREE!

I just bought the Purex Essentials the other day (haven't used any yet) and I thought about you when I saw the A&H Essentials right beside it ;+) ~ Gigi

Have you ever tried Purex? My mother ran the gammut with me and all my allergies and skin sensitivities and when you have Lupus your skin is more sensitive than normal. She couldn't use Tide with any of the children in my family--it was too strong. She tried several brands and someone suggested Purex. It worked and I have used it all my adult years. Haven't wanted to take chances on other products. And typically, Purex is about $3 per bottle cheaper than the other upscale brands.

Congratulations on your win! So what exactly is a year supply? I always wonder how much someone will get.

Congrats on your winnings! I would have to give it away. One of the girls is allergic to just about anything other than arm and hammer essentials.

Wow! Good for you. It's nice to win a year's supply of anything, but to win a year's supply of a quality product is awesome. Congratulations. :)

Congrats! That's super cool to win a year supply. I have to spring for Tide, because most of the others make my son itch. He was most unhappy when I did his underwear and sheets in another brand. Itch city.
