Not-So-Dirty Secrets for Making Laundry Easier
Doesn’t it feel so mundane and pointless doing some household chores sometimes, such as laundry? I mean, we pay for cleaners, only to have our hard work erased time and time again. It’s like a clock hand which is stuck and is moving forward one pace then back again, rinse and repeat {pun intended}.
I was recently invited to take part in#AHFreshPerspective – it’s the Arm & Hammer Triple Chamber Challenge testing out the new Arm & Hammerâ„¢ Plus OxiCleanâ„¢ 3-IN-1 Power Paks, to prove that laundry can be simple and effective. Since I’ve used OxiClean for too many years to count, and very much trust its effectiveness – I was game. After all, these particular power paks are the only detergent boosted with the stain fighting power of OxiCleanâ„¢ and the freshness of Arm & Hammerâ„¢ Baking Soda. So right off the bat I knew they’d pack a powerful punch.
Endless amounts of laundry can also be really costly to a large family, luckily Arm & Hammerâ„¢ Plus OxiCleanâ„¢ 3-IN-1 Power Paks are just $0.19 per load versus $0.35 per load for other leading brands. Every little bit of money saved, helps – and over time, this can save you a lot! Especially since the Coldwater formula also helps to save money with energy bills.
Product Benefits:
- Easy-to-use paks mean no bulky bottles, spills or messes
- Lasting freshness from the makers of
- Arm & Hammerâ„¢ Baking Soda
- Powerful stainfighting with OxiClean™, Canada’s #1 Versatile stain fighter
- Cold water formula saves energy and money
- Available in Fresh Scent and Coldwater
I’ve been using Arm & Hammerâ„¢ Plus OxiCleanâ„¢ 3-IN-1 Power Paks solely in my home for months now, and quite honestly, I haven’t given it much thought. During each and ever countless wash, these power paks did what they are intended to do, without other effort from me. In fact, I think I only had to stain soak one item during this time, a food stain which I wanted to ensure would come out. Yet thinking more in depth about it, I usually do a lot more stain treating, especially with three kids. This really proves the stain fighting power of the product.
Here’s a laundry hacks visual tip sheet with not-so-dirty secrets for making laundry easier – which offers additional ways to save time when doing laundry.
So yes, the Arm & Hammerâ„¢ Plus OxiCleanâ„¢ 3-IN-1 Power Paks work very well in our front load washer {though they can be used in all washers, including HE}, just toss them in and let them work the magic – while you do other things. You know, like the other mundane cleaning chores that also seem never ending {looking at you, dusting!}.
Take the Triple Chamber Challenge for yourself and I’m sure you’ll notice how much easier laundry is to do. Purchase this deep cleaning liquid laundry detergent that tackles tough stains and keeps your clothes smelling fresher, longer –  at mass, drug and grocery retailers across Canada

Not going to lie, I hate doing laundry. One of the worst chores there is. That’s why I’m glad my hubby does the laundry. I do the sheets and blankets though and only use pods because I hate measuring out soap. So this would be great to win
Loving the laundry hacks! I would love some free laundry products to help make doing laundry easier!
We do a number of loads of laundry a week and I love the laundry paks are they are less messy to deal with. I’d love to win as this prize would make laundry much more simpler than having to measure out laundry soap.
I’d love to win because I do a LOT of laundry and this would really help! During the school year I do laundry almost every day – there are uniforms for basketball, choir etc. that need to be clean for practices, games performances etc. Plus there are all the school outfits, and since my kids are little they tend to get messy so I need to get the stains out instead of letting them sit. And then there is my husband’s cycling gear, my volleyball stuff, etc. Keeps me busy!! I tend to hang most of our stuff to dry, so the process takes longer in winter – I am so happy it’s hot and sunny summer weather right now, I can get through the process much faster since everything dries so quickly on my racks.
I work with food everyday, there is constantly near permanent grease and oil stains on my uniform, plus since my fiance plays soccer, he gets lots of grass stains. This would help us tackle all that laundry
I have a lot of stinky gym clothing I have to deal with! Id love to win as I was thinking to switch to laundry pods instead of liquids
I’ve got a hubby that comes home with dirty work clothes everyday and a son that has dirty stinky hockey uniform in the winter & a grubby soiled baseball uniform in the summer. I need all the laundry cleaning power I can get.
dirty work clothes everyday
I would love to win for the crazy amount of laundry that I do every week. With six people in my house it sure adds up!
We have so much laundry to do each week and winning this would really help out.
socks, socks, and more socks. can’t wait to try it on them. thanks
With four very active kids and a hubby who is working everyday in our 3 gardens, I have a ton of laundry to do virtually daily. Love power paks for no-mess detergent so this would definitely come in handy overall!
i wash alot of things separate and in laundry bags, as well as hang to dry alot of things.
I am the lead hand in our local food manufacturing plant and am in charge of the cleaning..the dish room is basically a very small HOT room, more like a hallway and I’m in it about 6hrs every day. I wear steel toed rubber boots, bright yellow slickers and not only do I get hot,sweaty, and icky, I also have a tendancy to get wet as well
I’d like to win to tackle the grass stain from soccer!
I do lots of dirty laundry. I have to wear a custom compression garment that covers most of my hand and arm. The hand part is hard to keep clean, so I would love to try out the the new Arm & Hammerâ„¢ Plus OxiCleanâ„¢ 3-IN-1 Power Paks to take the Triple Chamber Challenge for myself. Thanks for hosting this giveaway.
My kids sporting clothing stinks to high heavens!! and I am famous for running a load of laundry and forgetting about it – I think have to re-run it.. lol
I always use cold water for washing but I could do with some extra power for those stains that just don’t want to come out.
my biggest tackle is blood on t-shirts my son is prone to nose bleeds so we need something that take the stain out and I love using the paks as I hate the powder/liquid where you have to measure as it seems like it doesn’t last as long
Great tips! Number 9 is the tip I’m using so everyone self sorts their own clothes. I’ve never tried these before, thanks for the chance.
The amount of laundry we go through in the summertime is kind of ridiculous…
Food stain is the worst, I always seem to spill something on my self.
I have two little girls who currently like nothing better then getting into dirt and mud so I need an easy way to keep them looking clean.
Every since my kids could walk they have been taught to put the darks in one basket and the lights in another basket. Only problem is they thing if they had it on their body, even for a few minutes it’s dirty and it goes in the laundry. We’re working on that one. I would love to win as I’m doing laundry every day.
I have 6 children so there is everything from dirt, food to grass stains. I have to do laundry daily
I love doing laundry and would love to win because it calms me and would be lovely to have an ample supply of laundry supplies!
I don’t like doing the dirty clothes that hubby has when he is working in the garden. Hard to get it out. I do like hanging clothes outside on nice days.
Have to admit I’m a bit of a slob, always spilling things. So would love to win as I have to do a lot of laundry.
Hubby is in the process of digging up several tree stumps in our garden so I would love to win as his clothes are covered in dirt
Lots of different laundry
We are out in the country and it seems like no matter what there is never a shortage of dirty laundry! I try to use cold water as much as i can but it would be great to have some extra stain removing power on my side.
I’d love to win because I would like to try them
I would love to win as we have loads and loads of laundry since we have 2 kids, my carpenter husband and myself.
I love doing laundry and I already put a towel in the dryer to speed up drying time. I think I will try sorting whites and colors as you suggest. I love using baking soda for cleaning and baking. Thank you for your useful and sensible tips.
I have never used Arm and Hammer Oxi -Clean and I would love to see how well it cleans our laundry. Thank you for the opportunity to win it.
I do laundry a couple times a week Thanks for the tips
I’d like to win because this family goes through a lot of laundry. Work clothes, coffee spills, outdoor clothes and absolutely everything covered in cat hair.
I already use a few of these great laundry hacks (socks in mesh bag, separate laundry baskets for light & dark laundry, Arm & Hammer Cold Water Detergent). I would love to try the A&H Power Packs for stubborn stains on our light coloured clothes, tablecloths, & socks. I also need help making our towels soft & fluffy too.
With three young kids and two of them being major mess makers, my house feels like an endless pile of pre-treating stains and washing laundry. These pods would make life so much easier!
I’m the only one I’ll allow to do our laundry. It’s actually the only chore I’ve always loved doing lol
I seem to attract dirt on my clothes and when I try not to spill it always happens, especially when I wear white
As much as I like doing laundry, I find it a chore. I hate measuring the right about of detergent so using packs would be so much easier!
I have a sock basket. There is always socks in it, either ready to be paired or already paired and never put away and there are always unmatched socks. Unfortunately it isn’t try dryer or washer eating them…they are getting lost on the way. If I throw one away the other magically shows up.
I do at least one load of laundry a day. We are a family of 5. With a 5 year old and almost 3-year-old twins, it’s necessary! I would love to win because it would help reduce one of our household expenses and I already use and love this product.
I would love to win for the grass stains on my grandsons pants , a typical boy and always has grass stains , i always have a ton of laundry to do in this house 🙂
Hubby is a Mechanic and comes home with very dirty clothes lots of days so I need a good detergent to get them clean!
We spend a lot of time outdoors camping so that causing lots of dirty laundry to deal with. Plus hubby’s work clothes are always getting dirty and sweating. I don’t mind doing the laundry as long as I don’t have to iron it! Always looking for a price friendly detergent that works great.
I love with a lot of boys , from smells to dirt , its just the worst job , lol Id love to win , we go through so much laundry !
I have 5 boys and a husband who works outside. Our laundry is filthy and vast.

I do at least a load of laundry per day, so this would be a great help. thanks!
dirty work clothes everyday!!
I work in waste management aka garbage! there’s nothing clean about my laundry. I want to win because my clothes are stained and germy and I’m a clean freak
I hate doing hubby’s cloths. He is a mechanic and there are days he come home greasy, oil and fuel from head to toe. I would love this win this. I have used this and it works really well
Always lots of laundry to do with the puppies and grandkids around.
I HATE laundry ! It never ends in this house ! I sometimes wonder where is all comes from . I am so ready to try something that makes it less of a chore !
I tend to let laundry build up to the point where I’m running out of essentials, and then spend several days doing binge laundry sessions. Which is fun :0
I have active boys and a husband who works in the trades so my laundry is a never ending pile of stains and dirt. I would love to win because I love the convenience of the detergent packs but often go with the more economical liquid.
My daughter is a messy eater and my husband plays hockey so we do a lot of laundry!
I always find things in pockets so I have to have a little jar or box by the washing machine to throw all the miscellaneous things in. I’d love to transition into using laundry packs because my husband has a tendency to pour/use too much detergent (on the rare occasions that he does the laundry).
Grass stains,food stains and my dog love to jump up on my bed after she has been out in the rain.
I have a hard time getting white socks clean again. Would love to win and try this.
For a family of 3,I honestly do not know where all the laundry comes from,it is a never ending task! This would be wonderful to win,everyone needs laundry detergent and it would be a great help! 🙂
We have so many dirty laundry and I only have time to do it on the weekend! I want to win because I love Arm & Hammer!
Mustard, ketchup, spaghetti sauce.. ugh! My son gets everything on his clothes! Plus my daughter is working at the Stampede this year; she’s coming home with dirt and grease stains & I have to wash her uniform every day!
My boyfriend has the most oily skin I have ever witnessed on a man. Seriously!!! Within only a few days after washing the bedding, his pillow case is always so full of oils from his face and neck! So gross! LOL! But apparently normal for him as he’s seen several doctors about it over the years. The only thing that seems to take the oils right out is OxiClean Stain Remover mixed in with our regular detergent. Because we are such huge fans of OxiClean products, we would love the chance to try out their new Arm & Hammer Plus OxiClean 3-IN-1 Power Paks.
I have a muscle disorder so I let my clothes pile up a bit then wash everything in one day.
This would definitely help me with keeping my whites, white!
My hubby works in the trades and comes home with dirty laundry filled with stains and dust.
My laundry is lots of dog towels from their crates, workout clothes & bedding.
My husband perspires a lot and that is my biggest problem.
I absolutely love everything about doing laundry except for putting it away but other than that I enjoy it. I deal with all kinds of stains, blood, grass and lots of red wine lol. But I have a feeling the OxiClean would help me out.
