Clean Your House Like Target and Help St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital at the Same Time! Spring into Summer Cleaning Supplies Review and Giveaway

One of my favorite stores in the planet is Target. I could seriously get lost shopping there. Not lost in the store I can't find my way around lost, but lost in a world of cool, fun things that I dream of having the cash to buy all at once lost. I could spend about ten minutes or more on each aisle. I mean come on! Kids clothes, make up, greeting cards, snacks, toys, home decor, cleaning supplies - you name it, Target's got it.

Spring is quickly surpassing us and we will soon be moving into summer. Some of you, myself included, still have some spring cleaning to get done before the season ends. At Target they have a huge stock of all the cleaning supplies that you could need to get your house in shape for summer. If you are still in need of cleaning supplies I wanted to let you know about an awesome promotion that is going on at Target right now where portions of your Proctor and Gamble cleaning supply purchases will go towards St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.




About St. Jude (taken from the press release)

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is internationally recognized for its pioneering work in finding cures and saving children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. St. Jude is the first and only pediatric cancer center to be designated as a Comprehensive Cancer Center by the National Cancer Institute. Founded by late entertainer Danny Thomas and based in Memphis, Tenn., St. Jude freely shares its discoveries with scientific and medical communities around the world. St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance. No child is ever denied treatment because of the family’s inability to pay. St. Jude is financially supported by ALSAC, its fundraising organization. In 2010, St. Jude was ranked the most trusted charity in the nation in a public survey conducted by Harris Interactive, a highly respected international polling and research firm.

Target will donate fifty cents for every specially-marked “red” Swiffer® Wet Jet® and Swiffer Sweeper® Starter Kits as well as twenty-five cents for every specially-marked “red” Bounce®, Downy®, and Tide® from May 10 through June 13 at Target stores for a total of up to $250,000.

In addition to the donation to St. Jude, Proctor and Gamble is providing St. Jude patients and their families with these same P&G cleaning products to use throughout their stay at Target House and other St. Jude residential facilities in Memphis.

I hate cleaning, but I can't think of a better reason to get off my lazy, procrastinating butt and go out and buy some of the specially marked "red" P&G products to get myself in the "spring into summer" cleaning mood!



For review I was given some "spring into summer" cleaning supplies that are available at Target. In other spring cleaning posts I have raved over the Swiffer duster but I also love the Swiffer Sweeper! I was so happy to receive a "red" Swiffer Sweeper Starter Kit including wet and dry Swiffer cloths to get started with. One thing I love about the Swiffer Sweeper is the fact that the handle can be made for any size from short to tall. My boys loved taking turns running the sweeper around the kitchen floor and I loved putting them to work! Other "spring into summer" cleaning supplies included samples of Bounce, Tide Plus Febreze Freshness Sport and Tide Stain Release.


Win It!

Two lucky Pretty Pink Momma readers will win the same "spring into summer" cleaning supplies that I received for review! Each kit includes a "red" full size Swiffer Sweeper Starter Kit (ARV $16) and samples of Bounce, Tide Plus Febreze Freshness Sport and Tide Stain Release.
