I have a sign on the wall of my laundry room that reads
Laundry Today, or Naked Tomorrow!
No self respecting Canadian mom wants to see a naked family in ‘feels like -40c’ weather, so laundry today, it is! In fact, with a family of five that includes three messy boys; it’s laundry day – every day – at our house!
Keeping up with the laundry is part of my every day living, in fact on any given day you might see me tweeting lines like:
Laundry rules my life

It’s 2013, why can’t laundry do itself?
Well, with Tide Pods, it almost can! Tide Pods make doing laundry a breeze, whether it’s the first load of your day or the fourth!
Tide Pods are a detergent + stain remover + brightener in one easy and exciting little pouch that dissolves in both cold and hot water. They come in three great scents; Spring Meadow, Ocean Mist and Mystic Forest. 1 pod takes care of one load of laundry, just toss it in the washer before you add your clothes and close the lid! No more pouring, measuring or spilling, saving you time to go take care of other messes!
As as stay-at-home mom there are few things I ever get to do alone. Whether it’s going to the bathroom or cleaning the house, I always have a curious boy or two in tow. My little helpers love to scrub toilets and chase the vacuum, but they love helping me with the laundry the most. I’ve used Tide my whole life, but when using the Tide Pods, my little boys feel like big boys when they get toss one in the bottom of the washing machine and help Mommy out! Like any household detergent, Tide Pods should be stored away from children, but with supervision my big boys make big helpers! Consider it training for when they are older, now if only I can still get them to clean when they are teenagers!
As my six year old says, Tide Pods make doing laundry Easy Peasy Lemon-Squeasy!
Have you tried using Tide Pods yet?
I like those a lot! I tried a sample and then bought a gigantic tub of them at Family Dollar. So darn easy and they clean well!
I have never even thought of using Tide pods before being given an opportunity to test it out. Now I’ve purchased it and will continue. It totally totally cuts down the amount of time I’m in the laundry room, so easy even my 14 year old son doesn’t whine when I ask him to do a load! 🙂
amen to that!
I love the idea behind hte pods! Definitely make it easy to do laundry. And even better, easy for the kids to do their own laundry! I mean really! No measuring. Just pop one in! My boys could easily do their own laundry with this!!
so true!
I use these!!! They’re awesome!
I love Tide Pods, it makes it much easier for the older kids to do their own laundry and not waste all my soap!
It is funny, I didn’t find that big of a change in the amount of laundry I did when we had our first child, but with #2 here now I feel like all i do is laundry!
their clothes are so small you almost don’t notice it with one, but I can assure you it certainly piles up with three, especially the bigger they get!
Surely laundry should be able to do itself! Feels like -40 with the windchill! My sister is in Ottawa and has been lamenting the temps
Great product. So easy to just pop in the washer. No mess with detergent running down the side of the bottle. I find that is a problem with liquid detergent.
me too, I hate when that happens!
I think these are such a great idea. Love the convenience!
Love the cool decals in your laundry room!!
thanks hon
Oh I really wish they made these in unscented! We have gotten a few samples but only my husband can use them since he isn’t as sensitive as my daughter and I 🙁
I’ve heard others say this too, it wouldn’t surprise me if they came out with unscented pods in the future!
I have tried them. They are really easy! I love your pics! Super cute 🙂
I love them! They clean better than any detergent I have used so far. I wish there were more scents available.
I had a few samples and although I liked using them, I didn’t care for the scent. Wonder if there is an unscented version. The ease of using these is great!
I never bought Tide before because I often thought it was expensive. I do 3 loads of laundry almost daily. When I got to try, really try the pods I was in love. Easy to use, no mess and I tested the cost thing. I actually save money compared to the cheap stuff I use to buy (I do not think I ever measured properly) Plus they work great in the cold water (saving money)
Love this post! You’re too cute, Jen!
I’m adoring my Tide pods. My kids even play ‘basketball’ tossing them in the laundry machine!
lol my kids fight over who gets to toss the pod in!
