Another new year, another chance to turn over a new leaf in your laundry practices! The New Year is a great opportunity to restore any area of life that can be improved on. It feels great to start fresh after the holidays and clear the way for new beginnings.

Naturally the laundry room plays a big part in the renewal process, so we made a list, checked it twice, and provided 8 laundry resolutions of our own to inspire you.

1. I will do my laundry when I feel like it, even if it’s 3 am!

2. A giant pile of warm laundry is a perfect place for a nap, I will take one if I need to!

3. I won’t let laundry sit longer than a week before I wash it.

4. I will always separate whites from colors before washing.

5. I won’t nag my kids, significant other, or my cat about doing their own laundry.

6. I won’t leave wet laundry in the machine a long time before transferring it to the dryer.

7. The laundry won’t fold itself; I will do it or get help from the kids.

8. I won’t yell out loud if I “misplace” a sock or two.

We hope this list helps you ponder your own resolutions as you start another year, and that you have fun thinking of ways to add sparkle to your laundry and to everyday life. Everyone at Purex wishes you a bright, clean, and happy experience all year long!

This August, Purex and Zout asked people around the country to submit nominations for their favorite teacher to win $2,500 in the Zout Helps Teachers sweepstakes. Amy D. of Wabash Middle School in Indiana was chosen at random from an incredible 7,500 nominations submitted.

Excited to share the news, Purex turned to Facebook fans for ideas on how to notify her. Combing through several great suggestions, Purex brought to life one fan’s proposal to surprise her in person with an oversized check.

The lucky winner has her mother Debbie to thank for the nomination.  With the help of Zout, her 6th grade social studies classroom now has an extra $2,500 toward school supplies.

Congrats to Amy and thank you to everyone who nominated a teacher.
