Shout Free Stain Remover Review And Giveaway

In my house, hubby does the laundry. The reason for this is because our laundromat is located outside our home, in a remote basement of our condo complex, and my husband (a police officer) doesn’t want to send me alone to an isolated room to do our family laundry. That is good, because the idea of going there scared me so much that I actually just sent my laundry out to be done for me and delivered back to me when I was single, which cost a pretty penny. So each week, my husband takes our laundry bags, and whatever laundry detergents and products I give him, and marches off toward the laundry room alone with a magazine to read and clean our clothes. I love that man 🙂

laundry stain remover
We recently started to use Shout Free, a spray which helps to prevent stains on clothes by soaking a soiled item of clothing in a dye-free, 99% natural stain fighting formula until you are ready to wash it. Considering we only do laundry once a week, but have a son that makes a mess everyday (everything from writing on us with pens and markers to wiping his food-covered hands and boogers on us), something that allows us to salvage some of our clothes is fabulous. It’s horrible to watch your entire wardrobe evolve into a scavenger hunt for something that doesn’t have spots or stains on it, despite being freshly laundered. Obviously, washing our clothes wasn’t enough, we needed to treat soils as they happen or else our wardrobe would continue to diminish, and our favorite clothes will be distant memories.

So far we’ve done the laundry twice after using Shout Free stain fighting spray, and since we started to use it, my maternity clothes with spills and dirt have come back to me clean and wearable again. Considering how expensive (and short-lived) maternity clothes are, not having to replace them to be presentable in public is fabulous, and I’m wondering why I didn’t have a laundry stain fighting spray like Shout Free in my house previously. If you have kids, you should have a laundry stain remover! I love that Shout Free is mostly natural and doesn’t contain any harsh fragrances or dyes. We keep it near our hamper now so that we can spray spots when we toss our clothes in, preventing any soiling from becoming a permanent stain on our clothes while it sits there, waiting to be washed.

Shout is offering downloadable coupons on their Facebook page for Shout Free and Color Catcher with Oxi. You can learn more about their laundry products at the Shout website Shout It Out, and two readers will also have a chance to win Shout Free by leaving a comment below.

I wrote this review while participating in a campaign by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Shout and received a product sample to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for taking the time to participate.

    I’ve actually never tried a stain removing spray…I’d like to.

  • Heather!

    I do all the laundry in this house! I don’t mind it at all, though, because of all the household chores, laundry is probably the one I mind the least. The ONLY thing I really hate about it is putting the clean folded clothes away! That *should* be the easy part, but I just hate it, so our clothes sometimes sit, neatly folded, in a laundry basket for a week or more before I finally force myself to do it!
