Household chores have a tendency to bring on bouts of dread and procrastination, but they are a necessary evil. Laundry is one household chore that I don’t mind doing in the least; in fact, I find it quite relaxing. Yes, I’m serious. It may be because before last February when my fiance and I moved into our own home, we were slumming it in apartment living and didn’t have a washer and dryer of our own for four years, so when I do laundry now, there could be a whole lot of gratitude at work. Sorting laundry, putting it into the washer and then into the dryer, and folding it afterwards is a pleasant experience for me overall. I play music, dance around the house, and I make the act of taking care of my home as enjoyable as possible. What I do not like about laundry, however, are the giant bottles of laundry detergent. Buying laundry in bulk, just like anything else, is a big money-saver, but then you have a huge bottle of detergent that you have to try to maneuver, measure out, and get into the washer without making a mess. Not fun. That is why I am a big fan of laundry detergent brands going in the same direction as dishwasher cleaners–making it concentrated and compact so that you can easily take a little pod out of the package, put it into the washer, and that’s all there is to it. Easy.
A couple of weeks ago I wrote about the laundry detergent brand all® and the release of their new all® mighty pacs™,along with a microsite that contained a coupon for $1.00 off. Since then, I have had the chance to try these new pre-measured pacs of concentrated laundry detergent, and I have to say, I am impressed.
I have never used all® brand laundry detergent before. It is not my usual brand, but I was interested in trying the all® mighty pacs™ because of the convenience–it opens up a world of no longer lugging around heavy detergent bottles or holding my breath as I measure a cap-full of detergent while being ever so careful not to spill it. What I also really liked about this product is that the concentrated detergent contains active stainlifters™ that work to thoroughly clean clothes while also removing stains. This was a definite selling point for me because my fiance is the messiest eater I have ever encountered. Regardless of what he eats, he’s wearing some it by the time he’s through, so I battle food stains often. I have also taken up gardening this year and we have a rather large yard to maintain, so we frequently walk into the house covered in several layers of dirt. A detergent that can leave our clothes spotless while also removing tough stains sounded pretty amazing, and just what we need around here, and I am really happy to be able to say that that is exactly what we got with all® mighty pacs™.
all® mighty pacs™ are available in two varieties; original, which leaves fabrics with a light, fresh scent without being the least bit overpowering, and free and clear, which has the same cleaning and stain-fighting power as the original without the use of perfumes or dyes. I know a lot of people don’t like using laundry products that have a scent as it can sometimes be too strong, and while I don’t think that this is the case with the original, all® mighty pacs™ free and clear is a great option for those who are scent-sensitive, or who have sensitive skin or skin allergies that flare up when in contact with dyes and synthetic chemicals. Overall, I was super pleased with all® mighty pacs™ and it is safe to say that I found a new laundry brand.

It would make my life easier because getting laundry done with a teen and a toddler isn’t fun while you are trying to get college finished.
So much easier to throw one in the washer & go. With a busy life, I am glad we have these to help!
Besides the convenience the stain release would be fantasic
These awesome looking Mighty Pacs would improve my laundry experience by making laundry doing a much more efficient experience – just toss & go instead of measuring!
for those who don’t have washer at home..it will make it easier to carry to the laundromat
just toss and run after the kids- this would give me more time to hold my newborn coming soon

These would make my life easier because I won’t spill when I’m trying to pour out the detergent! It will make things stay cleaner, and I won’t waste as much!
i love that you just throw it in the washer
My laundry experience would be better without the drips from our jumbo laundry detergent dispenser!
These packs would make it so that I never spilled liquid or powder all over my laundry room!
They would make my life easier when I’m doing laundry with a toddler under foot.

These would make life so much easier. No more measuring, just drop in and wash!
No scooping or measuring would make the laundry much easier
Less mess and waste. Plus they are a lot quicker 🙂
I love the simplicity! No measuring, drips or sticky mess!
easy to use and I love the smell of ALL! Thanks, simmsmba@gmail.com
Their real easy to use & get clothes so clean .
Verys to handle and deliveres a great cleanenness
No measuring required. Just throw a pack in. That’s certainly easy,
Not only would it be a time saver, but also a mess saver! With our new washing machine you can’t rinse out the measuring cup of the big bottles of detergent (the ones with the spigot) so it sits on a rag on the dryer all messy. :/
Because theres no pouring involved, easy to do!!
It would make it a lot more convenient and no spills!

There would be no more measuring or spill the detergent.
no measuring means no mess…..not dealing with big heavy jugs either

might help the males in the household not put too much soap in the machine! LOL
It would be easier to store away than a large box of detergent and simpler to carry home. Great for taking on trips when having to go to the laundermat in a strange town. Thanks.
it would be easier and less messy
We keep our soap up in a cupboard and quite often my children will dump the soap from the cupboard to the cup slopping it down the cupboard, but of coarse when mom finds it no one knows how it happened and by then its dried and at times dripped down to the linoleum. This will make my laundry life much easier. THANK YOU!
its a much faster way of doing laundry
Anything to make life easier. Thankyou, Ken
I like All detergent, but I have never used the pacs. I am sure it would be easier and a lot less messy.
Nice prize

These would be so simple, no measuring or spilling detergent
i don’t know yet, but i’d love to try it to find out! thanks! 🙂
They are so convenient!
These would just make laundry easier and faster.

They would make my laundry experience while traveling much easier. No hauling around large bottles of detergent 🙂

All pacs would eliminate the mess of the powder detergent. Easy to carry too. Takes less space.
I always use All detergent, the large one with dispenser on side. The All-Mighty Pacs would eliminate me, always, having to wipe down side of dryer from spills.
it will be quickere and possibly get toddler stains out
no measuring
We have stackable Washer/Dryer with NO room for storage- this makes for spills of detergent. These packs look so easy to use and no mess!
it would make doing laundry quicker and less messy
Love the idea of just throwing the little packet in the washer

It would make it very convenient -no measuring!
I recently spilled a half full bottle of laundry detergent. All Mighty Packs would improve my laundry experience by keeping that from ever happening again.
I think these would be easier to store than a bottle of detergent and no measuring required.
pre measured would help me cuz I always put in too much detergent
they’re so simple! toss them in and go. nothing to spill or cleanup. love em
I’m not consistent with the amount of detergent I use. Pre-measured would help.
I just love how easy it is. Toss and go, no need to measure, lift a heavy bottle.
These would make it easier for the kids to help with laundry
it is fast and easy no measuring
I love how simple they are to use. My kids are getting to the age where they can help with laundry and these just make it easier.
I really like these All mighty pacs – i think they would make doing the laundry easy and make my clothes super clean. Thank you for the giveaway!
The pacs help because the kids can get everything ready – they throw in a pac and then I start the load. Love them!
It would make laundry so much easier.
No more spills, thats awesome!! Just toss it in the washer and way to go!

Simplify – no measuring
I like that there’s no measuring involved, and hopefully they will clean better than the detergent I have now!
I’d skip the measuring part – and no more irritating drips!
