Cascade Dishwasher Action Pacs Giveaway
This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to commentor #185: Erin from Long Island!
Time is of the utmost importance at our house during the holidays. Like so many others, we have extra shopping, errands, baking, activities, and places to go. We like anything that helps makes life more simple. That’s exactly what Cascade Dishwasher Action Pacs has done for us.

Product Description: Don’t let stuck-on food and grease slow down your routine. Cascade ActionPacs with the Grease Fighting Power of Dawn gives you the scrubbing power of Cascade and the grease-fighting power of Dawn. It’s the perfect combination for an amazing clean. Plus, they’re incredibly easy to use. Just place the ActionPac in your dishwasher—no unwrapping and no mess.
Cascade ActionPacs are concentrated times 4 to get the dirtiest dishes clean. Just place one ActionPac in the dishwasher soap dispenser. There’s no measuring or opening of individuals packets.

I have a confession to make. I have always washed my dishes by hand before putting them in the dishwasher. Not anymore. I’m now scraping the food off the dishes and letting the dishwasher and Cascade’s ActionPacs do the work.

Cascade ActionPacs get the job done. They’re simple and easy to use and I like that!
Did you know that Cascade is on YouTube?
Like most of us, actress Alyson Hannigan’s life is very busy. She currently stars on the CBS hit comedy “How I Met Your Mother”. Between juggling her new role as a mom, and her role on television, there is at least one part of Alyson’s “fully loaded” life that she doesn’t have to worry about – dishwashing.
Even in the most fully loaded dishwasher, Cascade ActionPacs help get dishes clean the first time. So load it up. Cascade will get it clean.
Cascade Dares You To Fully Load It with Alyson Hannigan

Time Saving Tips from Alyson Hanigan:
1. I keep all of my main cleaning supplies in a bucket under my kitchen sink, with an additional supply bucket in the upstairs bathroom. The bucket acts as an easy-to-carry caddy I can take from room to room with me, and having one on each floor saves time.
2. I keep a calendar with all of my appointments and commitments, whether they are work related or personal. This helps me to avoid schedule conflicts and keeps the importance of my family life on par with my work life.
3. Since mornings are hectic in my house, I often organize myself the night before (laying out clothes, packing lunches) so I can leave on time the next day. Planning ahead allows me to spend more time with my family before leaving for work.
4. I keep a laundry basket for every person, and separate the clean load out for each to fold and put away their own things.
5. My closet can get a bit crazy at home—to save time, I keep all my shoes in shoe boxes with a Polaroid of each taped to the outside. This way I can quickly and easily locate the pair of shoes I’m looking for and get out the door on time.
6. To save time and energy, my husband and I only run the dishwasher when it’s all the way full. Cascade ActionPacs are no fuss—we toss the little packet into the dishwasher dispenser and our dishes come out clean the first time, every time.
7. With a new baby, free time is hard to come by, so multitasking is key. As I talk, I dust my furniture. You can also tuck a second cloth sprayed with window cleaner into your back pocket. That way, as you’re dusting your cabinets, you can take care of those small fingerprints on the glass doors at the same time.
8. I combine my daughter’s diaper bag with my gym bag, which not only allows me to hit the gym at a moment’s notice, but also reduces the amount of baggage I carry with me
9. Every week I put the grocery store receipt on the fridge so I can remember what items I buy from week to week. This helps to eliminate an overstuffed freezer or pantry because I’m not re-buying items I forgot I had.
10. I keep 3-4 trash bags in the garbage can at once, that way when one is taken out there is a refill ready to replace it.
11. I keep a shoe rack on the back of my passenger seat in my car with extra pairs of heels, running shoes, as well as socks and shoes for my daughter in case an impromptu meeting or change in weather occurs—then I don’t have to run home between trips!

The Cinnamon Apple Spice Scent would be great. I didn’t even know they made that scent. I’ve never seen it in a store that I purchase Cascade from. Yet, if it is a limited time scent then the Fresh scent would be wonderful too.

Normally I would say citrus right off the bat, but the Cinnamon-Apple Spice scent sounds pretty interesting for dishwashing detergent! We use a different brand of this pacs right now – would love to try the Cascade ones and see how they compare

The citrus scent
Like a ‘fresh’ start, I think the Cascade ActionPacs in the Fresh scent would best suit the cleaning performance.

i hope to win this giveaway.
My preference scent would be Cinnamon Apple Spice.
