GIVEAWAY CLOSED
Well, I wouldn’t typically show you such a dirty dish, but the dirtier the better for this post.
My BlogSpark and P&G recently sent me the baking dish and some Cascade Complete All-in-1 Action Pacs to give them a try.
Let me tell you, most everything I buy is store brand. I shop at Aldi’s for groceries, and Walmart for household products. I used the Walmart brand of dishwasher soap, because well…it was cheaper. On a typical day, I do 2 loads of dishes, on a cooking or baking day, I’ve been known to have 5-6 loads, so I try to save where I can. Before I tried the Cascade Action Pacs, I really thought that my dishwasher was not very good, that maybe it was just a bottom of the line dishwasher and didn’t get the job done. I would spend lots of time, pre-washing, rinsing and MOST of the time, re-washing dishes that came out of the dishwasher still dirty. So, I not only was spending more time washing the dishes, but also more money on water and soap.
My challenge was to bake a Blueberry Cobbler, wash the dish and show you the results.
And of course, I couldn’t bake without sharing the recipe…

Wow! I also tend to buy the cheapest, and I too prewash my dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. I may have to try this. Thanks for the review and the giveaway!
I would buy groceries, like laundry soap, air freshners. I would try the cascade action packs also. I have seen them at wal-mart but, like you always bought the cheaper things.
I find that we have to rewash dishes here too. It seems any BBQ or tomato-based residual never ever comes completely off! I would use the card to try these action pacs, and with whatever is leftover on the card get some groceries!

My dishwasher isn’t that great. I’d definitely buy some Cascade if it would improve cleaning performance!

I’ve always wondered about that Cascade, now I will have a good reason to try it.

I would use the GC to purchase household supplies. I don’t have a dishwasher, so I couldn’t get the Cascade product! I do wash dishes by hand and go through a lot of dish soap, so I would stock up on dish soap.
