This is my laundry pile, more often than not. You’ve seen it before. (Hey, give me a break: there is someone currently residing in my apartment who goes through up to five outfits a day, depending on his mood.)
You know, Kendrick and I were sorting our clothes to send out to the laundromat the other day, and I said, “wow, in a month or so I’ll be doing all this myself.” And in return, he gave me a “aw, sweetie, that really sucks” grimace.
I mean…is he kidding?! He’s kidding, right? I could not possibly be more excited about the prospect of having a washer/dryer of my very own to do with what I will. You New Yorkers without laundry rooms in your building know what I’m talking about: it’s a dream, the idea of coming in from a rainy day and being able to throw my jeans right into the wash, or getting into toasty, straight-from-the-dryer sheets at night, or knowing for certain that my favorite t-shirt will not be returned to me shrunk down to a size more appropriate for my six-month-old (this just happened; I am not happy about it).
Anyway. This is all to say that I am very much looking forward to becoming intimately acquainted with laundry detergent very, very soon.
If you’re similarly enamored of lovely-smelling laundry, good news: Method is launching a “Say No To Jugs” photo contest in which readers submit a photo documenting why laundry is such a chore (as an example, perhaps it’s a pain to lug around big, heavy jugs that spill everywhere). The entry with the most votes will win a year’s supply of detergent, and there are several runner-up prizes, as well.
Ooh – and every Thursday during the month of May you can download a coupon for $2 off of any laundry detergent from the “perks” tab.
(Why “Say No To Jugs”? Because Method’s detergent has a precision-dosing pump, and comes in streamlined bottles that are a) recyclable and b) take up far less space in your cupboard and on the planet than those oversized things you’re used to hauling around.)
Method is a sponsor of Ramshackle Glam.
