I am absolutely loving my Frigidaire Washer & Dryer that I got from being on the Mom Central Test Drive team! It has made doing Laundry so much easier! I can't believe how much money it has saved us as well. Ladies,my husband is now doing laundry more than once a week!
Today I thought I would talk about washing your clothes in cold water! Are you reluctant to turn off the heat in your laundry routine?Did you know that 80% of energy used in washing a family's clothes comes from energy needed to heat the water?Despite what your mother told you,washing your clothes in hot water is NOT the only way to get them clean. Washing your clothes in cold water will help reduce the energy being used and save you money in the long run. You may want to use a 
good detergent specifically made to enhance that. Tide Coldwater is a great one.It allows you to make the small change to cold water washing and energy savings in mind. It's great for those HE washers just like my new Frigidaire set. Imagine how much money I may save using my new Frigidaire and switching to coldwater. I am making the switch and I am curious to find out! Using Tide Coldwater, families can do 3 washes in cold for the same energy in one wash in hot. They can also save up to 50% of energy used.
Oh did I mention Frigidaire now has a new celebrity ambassador?Jennifer Garner will introduce Frigidaire's time saving appliances and challenge us to pledge a little bit of our own time to help children n need.They have a new campaign called "Make Time for Change". Nov 1st will be gaining an extra hour due to the time change?Frigidaire and Jennifer Garner are challenging you to pledge that time to make a difference in the lives of children.Everyone who goes to Frigidaire.com and raises her hand with a pledge to make time for a child, will commit Frigidaire to donate $1 to support the CHANGE. Also everyone who pledges their time will be entered to win a new Frigidaire Professional double wall Oven.(When you enter on THEIR site)

I hate the folding and ironing. I’d use the hour for reading.
