Wow – OxiClean Really Works!

Posted on 07. Sep, 2009 by Kate in Parenting

You may already know this. In fact, I might just be the last mom on the planet to know this, but now that I know, I can’t help but share. OxiClean is the best damn invention since sliced bread. I’m usually wary of any product hocked through late night infomercials, but I have to admit it – this stuff really works!

I found out recently at my mom’s house, of all places. Why she never clued me in before, I don’t know. We were doing laundry together (not something we normally do) and she put the OxiClean in.

I said, “Mom, I already put detergent in,” like, duh, you saw me since you were standing right there! Ahh, the special relationship between a mother a daughter. She explained that OxiClean “helped” the detergent get the stains out and I was all, “yeah, right,” if not physically then mentally rolling my eyes.

Lo and behold – all those stains – gone. Out. Vanished. No bleach, no faded colors. It’s truly amazing stuff.

One last example that’s probably gross, but every mom either has or will encounter this problem. Throw-up. Vomit on the sheets. Nice, soaked in puke, smelling like well, you know. This happened the other night – the wee one tossed her cookies during the night. I didn’t get to the sheets till morning, well, OK the afternoon the next day and they stank.

Normally, I’d have to run them through the washer a few times to really get the smell out but I poured in some OxiClean the first go round and guess what – they came out not only looking clean, but smelling fresh! I tell you, I’m hooked.
