Wanna free box of 20 Mule Team Borax?

Borax hooked me up with a free sample of their product so I could review them. I have used their product before, but only as an addition to a homemade laundry detergent I found on pinterest!
Only thing I would change would be to add in purex crystals for added scent, otherwise there's no smell... bad or good...

I wanted to review the borax on it's own, with nothing else mixed with it. I didn't realize how useful it could be all over the house! I knew of the effectiveness with clothing and stains, but didn't realize it could be used for carpet stains, to boost your dishwasher's cleaning power and to clean and deodorize in the bathroom and garbage disposals and drains! Pretty versatile product if ya ask me!

I first tried it in my dishwasher by adding 1/4 cup of borax in the bottom of the dishwasher, to keep the dishes and glassware from leaving spots or film. The glasses seemed to be a bit less spotty!

My sponge filter in my shark vacuum was in desperate need of a "defunk", so I put about a gallon of hot water in my kitchen sink with about half cup of borax and soaked my filter in the water for 2 hours. I rinsed it out and was surprised at how clean and white my filter had returned to.

I also tried to use it as a carpet stain remover and wasn't as pleased with the results. The instructions were to dissolve 1/2 cup of 20 mule Team Borax in 1 pint water. Sponge on and wait a half hour and rinse well. Then let dry and vacuum. The results were ok, but I went ahead and used my trusty little green machine afterwards.

I know of the effectiveness of borax for laundry stains and delicates, and feel like every household should have a box on hand just in case. There LOTS of other uses for Borax other than the ones I've mentioned.

The winner will be contacted via email on January 29th.
