Tropical Traditions nontoxic cleaner giveaway!

As a fun follow-up to yesterday's Healthier Homemaking post, Tropical Traditions is hosting a giveaway of two of their fabulous household cleaners.

I have really enjoyed working with Tropical Traditions for several reviews/giveaways on this blog. They are a great company with really good customer service and such a wide variety of great quality products. I was excited to receive their Powdered Dishwasher Detergent and Glass and Surface Cleaner to review for y'all. And, as with all of their other products, I couldn't have been more pleased.

Powdered Dishwasher Detergent

I had never used natural dishwasher soap before, and to be honest, I was kind of skeptical that natural detergent would get the gunk off of our plates. I don't rinse things very well and often have melted cheese, etc. stuck to dishes (hey, if I don't have to spend the time to rinse them thoroughly, why would I?!).

To my (pleasant) surprise, the Tropical Traditions Powdered Dishwasher Detergent has worked just as well as the dishwasher detergents I normally use, and I don't have to call poison control if one of the children sticks it in their mouth [ahem].

As far as the price is concerned, it goes on sale for $19.99 (and is on sale this week!) for a 5lb. container, which is enough for 40 loads of dishes. I believe this is a little more than you will pay for conventional dish soaps on sale with a coupon.

Glass and Surface Cleaner

 I have been very pleased with Tropical Traditions Glass and Surface Cleaner. I have used it to clean windows, mirrors, etc. and just as the product description on the website, it really does clean without leaving any streaks.

And, of course I love that it's free of any harsh, toxic chemicals. My babies can 'help' me clean the windows and I don't have to worry about what they're inhaling.

Regularly priced, the glass cleaner is more expensive than traditional glass cleaners. However, when it goes on sale, the price is comparable. You can buy a one gallon container for just $0.10/ounce, which I think is really reasonable. You'd just need a spray bottle you could pour it in to.
