How do you stay on top of your laundry routine?

Can laundry be fun?  Well, let's not push it, you may be thinking.  But we gave 10 super-lucky moms a Gain goodie basket, filled with laundry detergent, fabric softener, dishwashing liquid, a dryer bar and in-wash scent booster in such great scents as Apple Mango Tango and Icy Fresh Fizz (and more).  Filling the house with uplifting scents can certainly make laundry more rewarding.  (Stay tuned for their feedback below).  In the meantime, what are your tips for keeping laundry from piling up?

I don't know that you can call it "staying on top of it," exactly, since I am not at all a fan of doing laundry.  I have to say, though, that if there is one thing that might change my mind, it's this Gain gift basket I just got.

First of all, thank you SO much, MamasLatinas, for choosing me as an influencer in this program.  I thought I was just getting a bottle of detergent (which would have been nice enough) so imagine my happy surprise when I saw this beautiful full basket arrive at my home!  It had laundry detergent, fabric softener and a few other things I'd never tried before (dryer bar!  scent booster!).  I definitely love having great-smelling laundry, and Gain is the detergent to get for that.  I especially love making towels and bedding smell great.  Boy, did this do the job!

I started my laundry with my comforter.  It didn't take a lot of detergent to give it a great, fruity scent (apple mango tango - yum!).  I stuck the dryer bar to the inside of my dryer, like the instructions say.  I worried a little that the different scents might clash, but in fact when the comforter came out it smelled so wonderful I just wanted to bury my face in it and inhale.  Nothing says "rest" like a great, fresh-smelling bed, and I can't wait to get into it tonight (I think a bubble bath may be in order).  It seems like a small thing, but it is just such a treat.  My mom always used to tell me when I was little that a clean, fresh bed always took away all your troubles.  After washing my comforter with Gain, I believe her.  I think Mami is getting a bottle of Gain as a gift.

Next I washed the kids' clothes.  They are at an age (12 and 10) when they are starting to care what their friends think about how they look and smell (thank goodness, finally!).  Anyway, when I washed my daughter's jeans and gave them to her to hang up in her room, she actually commented on the smell.  A first! 

Oh, and I tried the scent booster on my towels.  I wasn't so sure, since I'd never seen this flaky stuff before and I wondered if it was okay to put in my machine.  It was!  The towels smell great and dried up so fluffy, just like I like them.

Gain has not traditionally been my laundry detergent, but getting this gift basket definitely changed my mind.  I love how great it made everything smell.  (And how clean it made everything too, of course!).  I wish they made scented candles with these smells!

I received my Gain basket just in time for laundry, and must say that I was very surprised with all of the Gain goodies I received :) I recevied laundry detergent, fabric softner, scent booster and dishwashing liquid (no idea Gain carried dish washing soap) Thanks so much MamasLatinas!

I started off with my husband's clothes, that as usual were filthy! This week they were even more filthy since he played basketball this past weekend. I used the Icy Fresh Fixx detergent and the Fabric softner on his clothes and must say that  they smelled so crisp and clean, I could bury my face in them lol!!! More importantly they were so CLEAN! I mean even he noticed how clean they came out...and they dont notice anything lol!

I then washed my clothes with the Gain detergent and Fabric softner and added the scent booster, that I hadn't noticed was part of my gift basket :) This made my clothes smell even crispier and fressher then my husbancs, the scent booster really enhanced the smells. I just love how it smells and how clean my clothes are!

The last item I used from my gift basket was the dishwashing liquid. I was a bit hesistant since I didn't even know Gain had this type of product, but I was pleasantly surprised! I loved the smell of the Apple Berry Twist dishwashing liquid loved that I only had to use a few drops to clean my dishes. All in all I loved all of my Gain products!

Gain is my new favortie brand!

Hello. My name is Katherine, I am a married mom of two and 1 more on the way.

I just finished using all the Gain products I was sent and was VERY impressed. I mostly focused on the products for laundry, the detergent, the dryer bar, the in-wash scent booster, and the fabric softener.

I ended up trying these products out with 4 loads of laundry, including one load with very smelly dog items to really try out how great Gain is and I was impressed! It left everything smelling and feeling wonderful, the smell was so pleasant that it lit up my whole bedroom as I was folding clothes.

My husband noticed immediately the change in the laundry detergent and he loved it also, we usually use Arm & Hammer but we are changing to Gain after this great experience.
