To kick off the launch of our Alice blog, we’re giving away a Flip Mino video camera!
We’re big fans of video blogging and we love the way video brings out the personality from people like 5 Minutes for Mom, Momversation, Gary Vaynerchuk, Hack College, Jun Loayza, the Motherhood’s Sisterhood of the Traveling Flip, Shama Hyder, This Full House, Ryan Stephens, iJustine, Jessica Gottlieb, Mommy Musings, Cool Mom and Chris Brogan. We’d love to see more people expressing themselves with Flip.

Fave household cleaner is the new Green Works by Clorox – All-purpose natural cleaner!!
http://tinyurl.com/d9gvch
The product that I would never switch away from would have to be Windex. The generics just don’t make the cut when you really need to clean the dog nose prints off of the windows.
I am absolutely and completely loyal to Charmin Ultra toilet paper. While it is more expensive than other brands its soft thick tissue makes it worth the splurge and rough thin paper are a personal pet peeve not worth messing with.
Greenworks by Clorox! Luv the stuff! Thanks for the chance to win! I want a Flip SOOOOOO bad!
I can’t live without baking soda. I know, lame right?
I use it to scrub my sink down every night and the bathtubs too. I never have to worry if I’ve gotten all the residue off because it’s edible.
D-oh! http://twitter.com/JessicaGottlieb/status/1270184314 here’s the link
@alice I love the new non-toxic dishwasher tablets from @methodhome http://tinyurl.com/bq52e8
It doesn’t leave any streaks like other eco detergents, but it doesn’t promote algae in the water like with other dishwashing detergents. And it comes in a cute package. Swear I don’t work for the company.
I’ve bought Bon Ami cleanser for years — It Hasn’t Scratched Yet!! :)

I just tweeted, but don’t know how to leave the link. Can you DM me? @theappleofmyeye
@ Courtney – I saw your tweet, thanks!
For others, you can leave the link directly in the URL portion of the comment form, or paste the URL directly into the comment form. I’ll be making sure none end up as spam.
Thanks!
I don’t know if you’d consider it a household product, but I do! I can’t live without Shout. The stain remover. I love that stuff! Not only do I buy one of those big jugs every 2 weeks, but my children’s clothes always look brand new! I hate stains, and thankfully, I don’t have to worry much about them.
It is my life saver!!

My favorite household product is probably Pledge. I usually buy store brands for cleaning products to save money, but I always buy the real Pledge. It just works better.
Please enter me to win the flip video camera.

Oh, I like Pledge too. :)
You know the one…that product that makes you giddy with excitement every time you clean. The product that makes the sun shine even though there is a storm brewing outside. The product that puts the cherry on top of a well cleaned home. Well, I might be going a bit overboard, but I can answer that question without hesitation…
I {heart} Clorox Green Works! I started using the product when I was pregnant with my third daughter that was born this past December. I’m sorry, but I cannot depend on anyone else to take care of my home like I do, so giving up cleaning was not an option. I did however give up products with harsh chemicals that might harm my unborn daughter and when I found Clorox Green Works, I jumped for joy…well kinda. It was more like a pop up and a little squeal than an actual jump. All the same, I was thrilled and still have to have the product around.
I figure, why not keep the chemical free products around for the rest of my and my families life and stop the pollution in it’s tracks. Well, I can’t save the world alone, but I can sure do my part.
Not to change the subject, but how would you like to win a Flip Video Camera? I sure would and that’s why I entered over at Alice.com. All you have to do is go over to Alice.com and answer the question…What is your favorite household product? Super easy! Now GO!

Here is my RT http://twitter.com/ChristyMoss/status/1270146741. My husband and I love kleenex. Most recently Kleenex introduced their Vicks infused Kleenexes. One whiff of those delightful tissues and we were instantly transported back to childhood – to a time when our mom’s rubbed Vicks on our chest. aaaaaahhhhh. :-)

I LOVE the scotch brite blue wavy no scratch sponges. They are by far the best and last a long time if you know how to! I use them in my sink/dishes as long as I can, then use them to clean the appliances/stovetop or the bathroom (disinfectant wipes after that to be safe – anal about cleaning), then use to wash the floors. Yes, I wash my floors with a sponge and hot soapy water. I could not live without these little gems!

and in flickr. come on, who’s with me on these Scotch Brite sponges?!
Separately, @Arianna – I love me some Charmin Ultra too!!!
I love the Mr. Clean Magic Erasers….mostly because my husband uses them to clean the showers, it’s one cleaning task I don’t have to do anymore since I began purchasing them!!!
Thanks for the shout out!
Fun contest idea. Flips are the best aren’t they?
Do diapers count? The first thing that came to mind were Pampers! I love them and won’t put my kids in any thing else. They’ve been around my house for quite some time. However I won’t be sad when I have to stop buying them!
I retweeted! http://twitter.com/TannaC

And my favorite product: Tissues! Nothing is more unattractive than a runny nose…
I sent out a Tweet. I’m @dinkypopsnomore.
In our household, I can easily think of two things we would never switch from: 1.) Charmin TP – There are some sensitive bums in the house, and this is what we’ve used for years! 2.) Tide Laundry Detergent – Not only are there some sensitive bums, but also sensitive skin. We know this works on our stains and doesn’t cause any funky allergies or skin issues.
I love Clorox Bleach! In any of its forms, nothing else stands up to it for us!
Twittered it too: http://twitter.com/kiniwoman

That’s easy – Mr. Clean’s Magic Eraser – I LOVE that thing!! It works on anything and everything – and it’s great when you have a messy 3 year old boy!! Oh yeah – and a messy husband…hehehe

That is my twitter comment. May I confess I have no idea how to link it back here? I am a ditz.
However, I am in LUV with my Magic Eraser mop. It has truly been magic for me. Now? I better go take a pic of myself with it!
I am most loyal to Clorox Wipes. I use them for everything. I love them because they are disposable and they clean up all the germs and bacteria. They are easy to use and not that expensive. I love and would never ever give them up.
I lovve my magic eraser! I don’t know how or why they work…but crayons, markers, scuffs, pen, sticker gunk beware…you’re comin’ off with this thing!

Is that how I link to my twitter? I just left a tweet!
Favorite Household item = my Dyson DC17 Animal Vacuum.
Can’t fathom how I thought I had a good vacuum cleaner before this one.
Not entering contest. Just wanted to share. A Dyson really is worth the money.
My can’t live without product is “Simple Green” cleaner. It is the most fabulous all-purpose cleaner I have ever used, and can be purchased at the dollar store. From shower to car tires, it cleans it all with minimum elbow grease!

Hey you didn’t tell me yesterday that there was a flip contest on! Oh my heck I want. one. bad… :)
I heart Lysol and those antibacterial wipes. I spray and wipe like a fiend whenever my roommate or I are sick.
Well crap I forgot the question part.. My favorite household product? I love Comet Cleanser. Is that too lame? I mean what’s not to love? It’s cheap, it does the hard jobs from toilet cleaner to counter and sink cleaner to garage floor sparkle-er! I don’t even buy the store brand stuff, Comet already is cheap! I especially like the lemon scented varieties…
Hmmm a whole blog post about Comet?? I could try..??
here’s the tweet http://twitter.com/ciaraj13/statuses/1274332813
i actually have two, but purex liquid laundry detergent in after the rain scent is one i can’t live w/o. it’s cheap, makes clothes smell nice, and it works pretty well when you put a little on stain, rub it in, and then wash.
another is comet spray cleaner…it’s cheap, too, and keeps bathrooms, kitchens smelling clean. :)
oh yeah, bounty paper towels…my goodness there are a lot hehe :)
I love Charmin toilet paper… the ultra strong kind! No matter the price, it’s what I buy. Twittered: http://twitter.com/meganlhill/status/1274356549

Not even a year’s supply of another brand could keep me from my ALL’s Free & Clear laundry detergent. I have a son with very sensitive skin and I’ve tried all the free detergents out there, but nothing works like All’s! Period. (And the price rocks!)
I just twittered! http://twitter.com/livinglocurto/statuses/1274366832
I can’t live without white vinegar. I mix it with water and clean most everything with it. As for a brand, I like the Swiffer Wet Jet for fast clean ups.
Ok. I’ll throw my name into the hat. Here’s one of my favorite products.

Vinegar is one household item I can’t do without. Not only does it clean well, I use it in my Scooba to clean floors, and it makes a great laundry rinse (in place of fabric softener).
I heart Baby Bits. They’re small soap pieces that allow you to make cloth wipes solution. I use them on EVERYTHING.

Oh and by the way. If you pick me I’ll make the video…ummm…very interesting.
Love Ajax Dishwashing Liquid cuts grease the best!
