This Giveaway is now closed.? A winner will be announced soon.
When it comes to doing laundry, stains are no stranger in my household. With two very active little boys ?and a darling husband who works very hard ? it seems as if a day doesn?t go by that I don?t ?have to deal with some type of stain.? This is why I could not wait to try out a brand new product from OxiClean that will hit shelves this month ~ ?OxiClean Max Force Power Paks and OxiClean Max Force Gel Stick Pre-Treater .
I could not wait to try them out. ?I had no problem finding a few pieces to put to the test.? Believe it or not, laundry is one of my favorite chores.? I just love fresh , clean clothes and linens.?? It only gets frustrating ?when my clothes don?t get their cleanest or my whites their whitest.? ?That is just one of my biggest pet peeves, but desides that, I love doing laundry?.. with the exception of folding and putting away part, ?now I don?t like that.? But oh well, it?s something we all have to do so I embrace it.
I have never tried OxiClean before-I?ve heard of it and even seen the commercials but never tried it for myself so I was excited to give it a try.? For this test, if stains are needed – I?ve got them ?and now with OxiClean handy, I was ready to go.
The Gel Stick Pre-Treater?works great on tough stains ?? even ones that set-in on clothes for a week! Just rub the gel into the fabric and let it sit for a few minutes before throwing it into a normal load of laundry.? The Power Paks are pretty easy to use.? Just toss them ?in with your laundry along with your detergent and let it do the rest.? I like that it?s mess free and ?helps get rid of stains.
Each of these new products contains OxiClean’s “4-in-1 stain fighting power” so whether grease, oil, blood, or dirt, appears on clothing, you know that dabbing with OxiClean will leave the garment looking new again after just one wash.?
I was very pleased with this product and I just ?LOVE how they make my laundry smell- so CLEAN and FRESH.? The best part about it is that they are ?easy to use- ?literally takes only a few seconds to grab a pak and toss it in.
?Win It!
One lucky reader will win a both the OxiClean Max Force Power Paks and the Max Force Gel Stick . You have until Friday, February 27th to enter to win.? A winner will be picked at random and you will have 48 hours to claim your prize!

blood and set food stains
I accidently left a tube of lipstick in a jean pocket one time. After going through the washer and dryer, I now had 7 pair of jeans covered in lipstick. The only thing that got the stains out was shampoo and scrubbing with an old toothbrush. We love Oxi-Clean around here. With three kids, I always have some stains to remove.
I have 2 kids, so lots of tough stains, the toughest would probably be spaghetti sauce, what a pain!

I have 2 dogs. Messy dogs. My couches could use some tough love from Oxiclean. So could my jeans–I do a lot of painting and do-it-yourself projects, so I’m always trying to get stains out. I’d love to win!
mustard is always a terrible stain to get out mverno@roadrunner.com
my daughter gets bloody noses sometimes, those are always tough to wash out unless you get to it right away.

As I discovered last night, coffee stains on a white blouse do not come out easily. I need this stuff! :-)
At least once a week Liz spills chocolate milk on her shirt at school. And chocolate milk is a real booger to remove.
My son got mud splatters all over his hoodie then washed and dried it without treating it. I want to try soaking it overnight in OxiClean to see if it will dissolve the stains that set.

I have twin nieces who just started eating baby food. I think the the pureed peas are the grossest thing they eat and leave the worst stains. I would love to try these products out. I’ve used the classic oxiclean powder and love it.

.-= Katie´s last blog ..Four. =-.
I am a mom of three boys, so it’s not just one stain story. But I’ll pick one: the grease stains on the lap of some Khaki pants my oldest has. I did pre-treat them, but forgot to check before I put them in the dryer. I’m guessing these won’t be ones I get to pass on to the younger two. Well, at least I bought it at consignment. :-)
I want to try it on my husband’s jeans. He works really hard and his jeans get filthy will dirt and grease stains.

The worst stain that I have ever had to try to remove was red lipstick from my daughters new pink shirt.
I tried everything that I could think of, found online etc.
But at last in order to get it out I had to bleach the shirt.
So it is now my daughters new white shirt.
Thank you so much for the chance to win.

Wish this product have been around when the kids were little…for the grass stains on their knees. Now it would be useful for the miscellaneous food stains.
I have a few stains on my carpet that i have not been able to remove. I have no idea what those stains are from i just really want them gone.

My 6yo son is a tough stain story daily, lol! He plays outside in our yard just about every day (rain or shine) and always has dirt and grass stains on his clothes.
I could use this for so many reasons. My daughter has a habit of walking around and even going outside in her socks. It is hard to get them clean.
Mu husband also does mechanic work and his clothes get filthy. :P
The tough stains I deal with are oil and grass. I alway use Oxy to get them out.

Brand new crisp, white shirt. Parents decided to take me out for…Italian. I was extra careful, but still ended up with sauce on my shirt. I couldn’t get the stain out, so *boom* – there it went, straight into the trash. That really stunk.
