You don't have to be a parent of a Special Needs child, a teacher, or a therapist to enter able2able giveaways. This giveaway is open to the USA. New to blog giveaways, and a little nervous? Check out able2able's Blog Giveaway FAQ's.The winner is Nicole Green! You have been emailed and have 72 hours to reply or Random.org will be used to select another winner. Congrats!
able2able… Your Special Needs Resource Directory is a blog for parents and caregivers of Special Needs children, Special Ed teachers, and pediatric therapists. When I decided to start doing product reviews and giveaways, I promised that I would stay true to the voice of this blog and feature products that are resources for my readers.
I still take that vision very seriously. But when I get an opportunity for a giveaway like this one, I jump at it. Why? Why not? We all like to have fun, like nice things, and it wouldn’t be healthy to let our devotion to our Special kids define us. So when My Blog Spark contacted me and offered this giveaway from Proctor & Gamble and Gain Dishwashing Liquid, I said "heck, yeah". It sounds like fun. We all deserve a little fun! So, sniff, sniff, hurray!
I just realized I’m talking about sniffing on able2able and I’m not talking about allergies or winter congestion! I’m actually talking about the new Gain Dishwashing Liquid. If you love the fresh, clean, smell of Gain in your laundry, than you will la-la-love the long lasting scent of Gain when you wash your dishes! Dirty work has never smelled so good! Gain Dishwashing Liquid is sold at WalMart and is available in four scents: Original, Lavender, Apple Mango Tango, and Citrus Splash.
I have used dye free, perfume free laundry products for years (guess allergies can’t be avoided on this blog!). I was not at all familiar with the scent of Original Gain. As an aromatherapy lover and a busy mom who is always looking for a way to relax that doesn’t require extra time, I was disappointed when my review sample was Original Gain scent and not lavender. I left the open shipping box in my guest room over night. I stopped short in the doorway when I went back in the next day. The room smelled great!

I have to avoid perfumes and air fresheners because of all the allergies, asthma, and exzema in this house. That doesn't mean I don't miss my smell-goods. Original scented Gain smells good and fresh. I took a big sniff, smiled, and relaxed a smidgeon. I guess if you don’t have time to stop and smell the roses, you can multitask and enjoy the smell of your dishwashing liquid!
In addition to being sent a bottle of Original Gain Dishwashing Liquid, I was sent some fun "I Love Gain" t-shirts. Since new Gain Dishwashing Liquid is sold at WalMart, I was also given $15 in WalMart giftcards to share with able2able readers! Everybody say, "Thank you My Blog Spark, Proctor & Gamble, and Gain!"

One lucky able2able reader will win $15 in WalMart giftcards complements of My Blog Spark and Gain Dishwashing Liquid so you can add some smell-good to your day.
