sample share: cottonelle clean care #MoreIsBetter

Welcome back :) November by far has been my most active sampling month! This time, I got to sample Cottonelle's clean care toilet paper from crowdtap. Cottonelle is promoting the fact that Clean Care Double Roll now has 35% more sheets than Charmin's Ultra Strong Double Roll. As someone who tries to save wherever I can, 35% more sounds great to me. I loved Cottonelle before this announcement, I buy it whenever I can get it for a good price (which actually happened to be last week on amazon...check out my stock up photo below ;)) as the quality is really good and I love how the rippled texture makes everything feel cleaner (check out their youtube page here to see some of their #GoCommando ads!). One of the fun photo challenges for this sample was to unroll one of the rolls (208 sheets, if you were wondering!) to see how much 35% more looks like. So with the help of an eager two year old (read: I bribed him with candy to let me photograph him!) we discovered a roll can completely cover a toddler, as well as fill up an underwear bin (check out those photos below!). Overall, this is one of my family's top toilet paper brands. Keep scrolling to check out the photos!

PS: As a side note, if you're not a savvy Amazon shopper, the Ibotta rebate website has a $1 rebate when you buy Cottonelle at target this week :)

we may have stocked up a little...

"get it off me, mom!!"

candy?? well, sure, now I'll allow a photo!

I'm done now!

Sample share: Cottonelle Deck the stalls holiday party

Late last month, I got accepted into the Cottonelle deck the stalls sample share. It was one of the most fun sample shares I've done! 5 Cottonelle fresh care flushable cleansing cloth dispensers were  mailed out to me, as well as decorating supplies (we added our own hot glue gun and markers!), coupons, and holiday conversation cards. I got together with some of my friends and family (and had my two oldest kiddos help out!) and we each made our own dispenser to show off in our own spot (most common place: bathroom sinks/on top of toilets. One ended up on my mom's kitchen counter!). I've done a review of the Cottonelle clean care routine previously (read up on it here!) and I still LOVE these wipes! They are very handy and have become a must-buy when we battle any viruses. Nothing but the freshest, best clean for my boys! I just wanted to show off our dispensers and all the work that went into them. Check out all our photos below (yes, I went a little camera happy!)

Sample share: Cottonelle cleancare routine

My final sample share of this epic run: Cottonelle clean care routine. It included a sample of both toilet paper and wipes for me, as well as coupons and travel packs for three of my lucky friends!.

The first thing I did was set up the cleansing wipes dispenser. With six people sharing a bathroom (most of them boys!) you can never have too many cleaning items available. I was pleased with how easy the pack was to open and how easy it was to fill the dispenser.

Nice, easy rip!

It sits nicely on our bar soap holder!

It's first use came quickly-I had a messy four year old who just couldn't wipe his bum well enough! The usual solution? He bends over while mommy cleans him with some wet toilet paper. That's got to feel gross (although my DS just giggles!). The Cottonelle wipes were perfect-quick and easy! Next I got to pick out who to dish the sample packs to.

Bob looks very enthusiastic!

My mom is my sampling buddy! I can always count on her for an honest opinion--and a great photo!

Ron was excited to try these out-he wouldn't put the cat down for the photo op!

As you can imagine, toilet paper flies off my shelves. We've tried just about every brand you can imagine. Of all the brands we've tried, this is one of the softest. The texture made my six year old to rub the new rolls against his cheek since it was so soft! It was strong and didn't rip or shred when we tore it into squares (one of our DS loves to over-use toilet paper, so we've taken to lying out a few squares across the counter to avoid a half roll being used every time he pees--and that's not an exaggeration!) nor when we wet it for easy clean up once the wipes we used up. Cottonelle is easily one of my top three brands, and I love to stock up when I find a great sale!

"Mom! it's so SOFT!"

"I love this paper!!"

Cottonelle Clean care & fresh care flushable wipes!

I recently got the opportunity to do a sample and share through crowdtap for the new Cottonelle Clean care toilet paper, as well as the fresh care flushable wipes. i was very excited for this one, as we are a family of 6 and toilet paper goes pretty quickly here!! I am always up for trying new brands--in fact, I usually switch brands a few times a month based on what's on sale, what coupons I have, ect. The second I opened the 18-pack of toilet paper I was sent, I was in heaven! It's got a nice, quilted texture that is soft and gentle, even though they are 1-ply sheets. In the middle of my sampling, I got a terrible stomach virus, as well as gave birth to my fourth son all in the same week. This toilet paper gave me no issues on either account. The flushable wipes are a great addition to our clean up routine, as I have three young boys--one in the midst of potty training--who sometimes need a little extra help cleaning up. My oldest, who is five, loves to announce that he got to use "the wipeys." They are also handy for cleaning up the small messes my potty-training toddler leaves behind on the seat! Overall, I am very satisfied with both products. They are both something I would definitely purchase!

our fresh wipes sit on the bar soap holder that came installed in the bathroom--perfect location for easy access!!

The entire sample share--a big pack and wipes for me, a small pack and wipes for two of my lucky friends!

ripply texture is part of why I love this product so much!

pretty design on the flushable wipes box! :)
