Giveaway: Seventh Generation Kit

 ***CLOSED***

Congratulations to #28, Sarah!!



It's back to school time in Georgia, which means a ton of excitement and a ton of germs!
Sad, but true, and I've already had The Talk with Sam.  You know the one about
washing his hands and using hand-sanitizer as often as possible.



MyBlogSpark and Seventh Generation provided me a wonderful kit full of germ-killing
products to kick off this school year.  I received a Seventh Generation backpack, 
disinfecting wipes, disinfecting multi-surface spray cleaner, facial tissue and paper towels. 
Have you tried Seventh Generation?  Well, they would like to give one of my readers the same kit!

Here's what you could win...



All you have to do is leave a comment below with a tip for keeping your home germ-free
and you're entered.  If you follow me, you can have an additional entry, but please leave 
a 2nd comment stating that you follow.  I'll pick a random winner on Saturday, August 14th at 8PM. 
Hope it's you!


Sponsor will ship prize directly to the winner.

I keep a bottle of sanitizer in the van and everyone "pumps" when we get back in after church, shopping, etc. Also, we use hydrogen peroxide to clean tons of stuff in the house from fruit to the bathroom sink - love it!

Close the lid on the toilet seat every time you flush. The spray from the toilet flushing can spread germs. *Thanks* for the giveaway!

How fun. I use some of their products and I do use lysol & anti bac. But to keep the flu bug away once school starts we pray. It has kept us protected for the past two years. Thank you Jesus. Praying this year is flu free and clear too.

I keep a full set of (natural) cleaning supplies under every sink in the house. This way I can easily access them when I'm in the room and do a very quick wipe-up. If I had to go to a different room to get the supplies, I probably wouldn't do it as often.
