I, on the other hand, will be running around the soccer field with the 5 year olds instead and getting ready for another F-word coming up tomorrow. (I think I just may be a glutton for punishment.)

Clean Your House Like Target House: Giveaway

***Closed: Congrats to Anara***

We shop at Target constantly. To be honest, I stop in way more than I should just to "pick up one thing." And I always leave with way more than I planned.

However, from May 10 through June 13, I can feel a lot better about some of my purchases at Target. Procter & Gamble has teamed up with Target stores to invite you to clean your house like Target House, while helping St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. St. Jude is one of the world’s leading centers for the research and treatment of pediatric cancer and other childhood diseases.

When you purchase specially-marked "red" Procter & Gamble products at Target, Target will make a donation to St. Jude. Fifty cents will be donated for every specially-marked "red" Swiffer Wet Jet and Swiffer Sweeper Starter Kits purchased, and twenty-five cents for every specially-marked "red" Bounce, Downy, and Tide product purchased between May 10 and June 13 up to $250,000.

In addition to the monetary donation, Procter & Gamble will be providing families with these same products to use throughout their stay at Target House, a long-term care facility that offers many of comforts of home, as well as at other St. Jude residential facilities in Memphis.

We use a ton of Procter & Gamble products in our house. Bounce dryer sheets are the only kind we regularly buy. They leave our clothes soft, without irritating the little one's skin. We've also been regularly buying the Tide Stain Release, and I'm so happy to finally be able to tackle the stains the boys bring home.
I am a huge fan of the Swiffer Sweeper too. The 2-in-1 Starter kit is perfect for cleaning the messes I inevitably find throughout the house. Because it comes with both dry and wet cloths, there's no small mess it can't handle. Ours seems to have found a permanent home in the kitchen, where it's easy to grab as needed.Win It
A lucky reader will win their own "spring into summer" cleaning supplies, including samples of Bounce, Tide Plus Febreze Freshness Sport and Tide Stain Release, and a full-size "red" Swiffer Sweeper Starter Kit

To enter: Tell me one cleaning task you plan to tackle this summer.
