The day I received my sample share kit in the mail, my dearest seester was at the house so she received the first sample! She was fairly excited, because she has a lot of dark clothes and swim suits that she wants to protect.
To prepare for my actual sample share party I chose a day when the majority of the females I'm closest to (aka family) are in one place at one time. We typically get together at Mom's house every Sunday for lunch so it seemed like the perfect opportunity! The sample share kit contained enough Woolite for one load of laundry per sample. (10 total) I wanted to really stress that it was to help preserve denim so I cut out the pockets of a bunch of destroyed jeans and used them as "gift bags". I also included a sealed bag of Purex scent boosting crystals and 2 Bounce dryer sheets. (Everything needed for one perfect load of laundry!) Then I made cute Woolite tags and attached them to the pockets with a clothes pin.
The day of the party we all met at Mom's house as usual. My sisters, sister-in-law, nieces, Mom, Aunt and brother were all present. YES I did make my brother get in on the action. As you can see, he wasn't exactly thrilled to be involved but I didn't exactly give him a choice.
After engorging ourselves on tacos we sat around Mom's living room & I explained to everyone how I had received the samples from Crowdtap. I then went on about how the Woolite was designed to not only clean darker colors but to protect them from fading and early-wear as much as possible. We joked about how we love this commercial and how the clothing torture is depicted in this awesome video made for Woolite and directed by Rob Zombie! Rob Zombie Woolite Commercial Much like me, my sisters wear primarily dark jeans and darker clothes. So this is a huge benefit. My niece asked if it had to be for jeans and I told her no, it's for anything you want to keep from fading so it continues to look like new. She glanced down and motioned at the new, gorgeous bright blue dress she was wearing and said "like this, right?!?" EXACTLY!! Why spend a ton of money on clothes just to ruin them in the wash? I find that it's cheaper in the long run to protect the clothes I DO have. I brought up the fact that I have jeans that are a year old that look as new as the jeans I bought within the past month. I only wash them every other time I wear them. I flip them inside out, use cold water and Woolite. I finish by line-drying them. The results speak for themselves.
We talked about Woolite for awhile and the conversation transcended into the clothes we most want to protect, eventually fading into general conversation. All in all, I had a great day with my family and I felt good knowing I was able to share a cool product that I love with everyone.
