LaundryTree Soap Nuts Giveaway
Congrats to Kyra of Michigan! Everyone check back soon for another LaundryTree Giveaway!
I’ve heard of Soap Nuts; I knew they were out there, but what the heck were they? Fruit you put in your washing machine? You’ve got to be kidding. How could they possibly work? LaundryTree.com gave me a chance to find out recently, and I’ve been nothing but Nuts for about two weeks now.
I haven’t used laundry soap for years. Seriously. I’ve concocted my own combination of Borax and vinegar, but it’s had its drawbacks. While totally chemical free, the whites didn’t always get as bright as I’d like. And while vinegar is a natural fabric softener, it never worked as well as chemical-laden dryer sheets. So I was completely caught off guard to find that after using Soap Nuts, my whites were whiter and the clothes softer. (Soap Nuts have no brighteners or bleach, but by golly, the whites look nice anyway.)
Wondering how they work? Soap Nuts are actually a fruit found in India, Indonesia, and Nepal. When they’re dried and then placed in water, they create a nice soapy solution. Totally nontoxic, totally natural. LaundryTree.com sends along a little drawstring bag that you put three or four Soap Nuts in; you also get an essential oil of your choice for adding a few drops of fragrance. After all your wash is done, remove the Soap Nuts from the bag and dry them. Or just throw your bag of Soap Nuts into the next load. (I don’t know how, but the little bag always manages to conveniently fall to the bottom. I was certain I’d lose the thing, but I haven’t yet.) You can use them a total of three to four washes! Then they’re compost. We love compost.
You want to try them too? LaundryTree.com is giving away a $20 gift certificate to their store to one of you! Just follow the rules below. For another shot at winning, LaundryTree has also thrown a $20 gift certificate into the Gimme Recipes! Contest gift bundle. AND keep your eyes peeled, because we’ll be giving away two more $20 gift certificates in the upcoming weeks!

these sound reaaly different! I want to try!
July 10th, 2008 at 10:20 am
I see that the soap nuts work in hard water, which I have. Even with a water softener, I still have trouble getting clothes clean sometimes. I’d like to experiment with the soap nuts and see how good of a job they do for me.

My daughter and I have sensitive skin and these sound like they would be perfect for us to try.
July 10th, 2008 at 11:12 am
These are really neat looking. I want to use something natural, and I also have sensitive skin, so these should be perfect for that.
July 10th, 2008 at 11:22 am

I love the fact that I can stick them in an airtight container and they have virtually unlimited shelf life. With the price of laundry soap rising constantly, these are an affordable option for cleaning clothes. And I can stock up without worry or have to worry about chemicals as these are all natural. Thanks for the giveaway!
July 10th, 2008 at 11:57 am
It’s amazing what they can do - making whites brighter and clothes softer?! Awesome - and it’s natural!! Plus, my hubs has sensitive skin, so this is great!
July 10th, 2008 at 12:22 pm
We are always looking for ways to “green” our life. This sounds like a great idea, and from the testimonies seems to work. I’d love to try them.
July 10th, 2008 at 12:29 pm
What a unique and wonderful way to wash our clothes. Friends have used this product and “Rave” about it. Sure would like the opportunity to try this product! Good luck everyone.
July 10th, 2008 at 12:38 pm
I’ve been using some “green” laundry detergent from Costco, but would love to try other things. This sounds like a great product!!!
July 10th, 2008 at 1:50 pm
They are organically grown and are chemical-free
July 10th, 2008 at 1:52 pm
I would like to try the Soap Nuts because I am just flat out intrigued by them…And I love that they are chemical free!
July 10th, 2008 at 2:23 pm
so cool
July 10th, 2008 at 2:23 pm
i would love to try it. seems great.
July 10th, 2008 at 2:24 pm
i am trying to stay “green”, so this is a great prize.
July 10th, 2008 at 3:06 pm
I’m desperate for these! I haven’t had luck with Borax, and I can’t find a “natural” detergent that is chemical-free enough for us.
July 10th, 2008 at 3:07 pm

July 10th, 2008 at 3:24 pm
I like that it is chemical free and how neat that you can use it as shampoo as well!
July 10th, 2008 at 3:42 pm
Plz pick me!

I love that they are chemical free (yay!!) and organic too. Definitely something I would love to try!!

I’ve been wanting to try these as a shampoo. I’ve heard that they prevent hair loss and repel mosquitoes! Sounds good for laundry too.
July 10th, 2008 at 5:14 pm
My baby has bad eczema breakouts and I have tried everything to limit flare-ups. I am hopeful that SoapNuts will help!
July 10th, 2008 at 5:18 pm
I’ve never heard of these before - how interesting!
I suffer from a variety of rashes and everyone in our family has sensitive skin so I would love to give these a try.
July 10th, 2008 at 5:21 pm
Our family has different skin types so we would love to give these a try!
July 10th, 2008 at 5:25 pm
I’ve tried these before and they were great. Love to win some more! Great giveaway, thanks.
July 10th, 2008 at 5:28 pm
What a cool product! We have been getting greener every year, and actually being able to compost these is an added bonus.
July 10th, 2008 at 5:36 pm
Looks neat!
July 10th, 2008 at 5:49 pm
Wow, what a great fruit/product!
I’d love to try it, I try live chemical free as much as possible, so this would help!
Thanks
July 10th, 2008 at 5:50 pm
I’d like to try them because folks were going nuts for them on a discussion at Apartment Therapy recently. I use Charlie’s Soap and am very happy with it, but am always willing to try something new and green.
July 10th, 2008 at 5:52 pm
Very interesting. I used to make my own laundry soap as well, and the whites just kind of got greyer and greyer. I would like to try these soapnuts because I am trying to live greener and this seems like a perfect solution to the laundry soap dilemma. (WHY can they not come out with refillable laundry soap containers that don’t use huge amounts of plastic?)

very good for the skin. soap sound nice
July 10th, 2008 at 6:04 pm
These Soap Nuts sound fabulous and really ingriguing. I see that they are good for sensitive skin, psoriasis and exema………and I am lucky enough to have all three!! I’m going back to read more!!
Great giveaway!
July 10th, 2008 at 6:18 pm
I have sensitive skin and have been trying to get away from chemicals (which is also good for the environment) and I would love to try these! Thanks for the great giveaway!
July 10th, 2008 at 6:22 pm
The more we learn about how skin absorbs toxins, the more I want to try chemical-free products. If my clothes can come out free of chemicals, I will be a soap nuts cheerleader to all who will listen.
July 10th, 2008 at 6:28 pm
I have never heard of these, but would love to try them. I HAte the smell of bleach and if this would help my whites without bleach, I give it a thumbs up. I also like the fact that it is safe for my septic tank! I hope I win!!!!
July 10th, 2008 at 6:35 pm
This unique soap sounds wonderful for the entire family. My daughter has exzema and we are careful with what we use.
July 10th, 2008 at 6:52 pm
You can even clean your jewelry with these things! Thanks for the giveaway!
July 10th, 2008 at 6:53 pm
i have long wanted to try something like this
July 10th, 2008 at 6:58 pm
Wow! I’ve never heard of these. I would love to try soap nuts. I’ve been trying to convert all our cleaning/bathing/everything products to natural ones and I haven’t found any laundry detergent that I like yet. These sound really interesting.
July 10th, 2008 at 7:10 pm
I’ve been using the ball that you put in the wash for up to 35 loads and I really like it. Running out and would love an alternative method to see how it compares. These sound fantastic.
July 10th, 2008 at 7:17 pm
I love how compact they are and how long lasting
July 10th, 2008 at 7:28 pm
I’d love to try them! Laundry day is a nightmare and I’d love to try something new!
July 10th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
I also make my own laundry detergent and have the same issues. I’d love to try these. Thanks for the great contest!
July 10th, 2008 at 8:34 pm
I love that they are chemical free and good for sensitive skin. My daughter has that Thanks so much for the opportunity.

Cleaning jewelry : squeeze half a lemon into a small amount of soap nuts decoction and brush your jewels with an old tooth brush.
July 10th, 2008 at 8:56 pm
Also, I am subscribed AND I have blogged you here:
http://carolsbloggys.blogspot.com/2008/07/dkmommy-enter-by-713-and-win-yourself.html
Here is how to make a “soap nuts decoction” as per my suggestion above:
Bring 10 to 15 half shells of soapnuts to boil in 1 litre water during 10 minutes, leave it to cool down and screen the obtained liquid. The decoction is now ready for use !
July 10th, 2008 at 9:20 pm
I’d like to try these as I am using cloth diapers and soap nuts doesn’t have the residue like regular detergents that can make prefolds less absorbent…although I do use Seventh Generation, so I’m not sure if that contains residues. I also would like to try these because I am trying to use green cleaners and detergents. Thanks for sharing!

July 10th, 2008 at 9:34 pm
this would be great-I have eczema and was told to quit using sheet fabric softners. they would be good for my sensitive skin
July 10th, 2008 at 9:52 pm
I’ve got a bunch of environmental “nuts” in my family and I know they’d like to know about (and try) these Soap Nuts. Thanks for the link.
July 10th, 2008 at 10:55 pm
this would be great since my daughter has sensitive skin!
thanks!

Would love to try soap nuts, we are trying to become a greener family. This sure would help. I haven’t found a natural way to wash clothes that I truly love yet.
July 11th, 2008 at 12:06 am
Wow, good for babies, high efficiency washers, sensitive skin, and hard water? Count me in! Truly though, I’d love to try them for the sheer novelty. I wonder if I can grow my own Laundry Tree . . .
Thanks for the contest!
July 11th, 2008 at 12:22 am
I love to try anything that is an all natural solution! Perhaps they could be used as something like fresheners for your drawers?
Thanks!
July 11th, 2008 at 12:29 am
I have six lovely children, Three teens, and three under the age of seven. That is alot of laundry, these are eco-friendly, reusable and then can be used in my garden (Should I ever finally brave my yard to create one!)
I love the concept, and I’ve told people at work all about them, but now I want to try them and try to convince people to get them. Any little bit can help our water systems and the earth!

Greetings! What an unusual, amazing product! I would love using it for laundry and I love the fact that they are good for sensitive skin. Three of the four of our family members have very sensitive skin to many products. Please enter me in your fantastic drawing. Thanks, Cindi
July 11th, 2008 at 5:46 am
they sound amazing! I’d love to try them, I saved the site to check back. Thank you!
July 11th, 2008 at 6:02 am
I would love to try these because my son and daughter have very sensitive skin and because as a family we are trying to go more green.
July 11th, 2008 at 6:43 am
You can use it to clean jewelry, that’s bizarre but so cool.
July 11th, 2008 at 8:04 am
Amazing. My son has very dry and sensitive skin. This sounds like something that might really help him. Thanks for the chance.
July 11th, 2008 at 8:14 am
I need somethign natural for my sensitive skin.
July 11th, 2008 at 8:28 am
i would love to see if this actually works.
July 11th, 2008 at 8:47 am
Although I love the idea that SoapNuts are naturally cleansing and will do wonders for our laundry I also like the fact that SoapNuts are good for our septic.
July 11th, 2008 at 9:13 am
I would love to try something chemical free and when looking at the website I noticed it helped with eczema — which my son has. Trying to put cream on his skin is impossible but maybe using this product when doing the laundry will help his dry skin!!!!
July 11th, 2008 at 9:31 am
I’d love to help treat my daughter’s sensitive skin. Thanks for the giveaway:)
July 11th, 2008 at 9:58 am
I have been using natural laundry detergents for years, but these Tree Soap Nuts look even better for the environment and it’s great that they can be put into my compost bin.
July 11th, 2008 at 10:32 am
I would like to try these because I am curious about them. It would be great if they got our clothes clean.
July 11th, 2008 at 10:39 am
They can also be used as a soak to clean jewelry
July 11th, 2008 at 11:12 am
Interesting……Very interesting!!!!! I have never heard of these before. I would love to try with the Plumereria essential oil.
July 11th, 2008 at 11:12 am
This is why I’d like to try them: “They are organically grown and are chemical-free, and they are incredibly gentle on clothes AND skin. They are especially great for those with sensitive skin — including babies and those that suffer from allergies, eczema, and psoriasis.” We have allergies and eczema in our house!

Wow. After reading out these and that they work in hard water which we have and all natural they really sound like something I’d like to try. Anything to help the enviroment !
July 11th, 2008 at 4:49 pm
i want to win
July 11th, 2008 at 5:00 pm
My husband is now a stay-at-home dad. He thinks he does everything better. However, the laundry is suffering. My son and I have sensitive skin. I’d love to use the soapnuts to show my wonderful hubby that I am still better at laundry and that I can make the white’s whiter! Help me to do that!

July 11th, 2008 at 7:29 pm
OMG! Are you serious? Fruit. Well, i want to try it mostly because i’m curious, but also for the chemical free advantges (of course.) I recently just stumbled upon a recipe for making my own soap and wanted to give it a try. Still will, but these sound awesome.
Thanks for the opportunity!

July 11th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
I’ve never heard of soap nuts, either! I would love to give them a try. My skin is so sensitive, this might be a welcome change to itching and scratching and itching and scratching…
July 11th, 2008 at 7:53 pm
I also have sensitive skin when it comes to laundry detergents - this would be very cool. Why not also try it for washing other things like maybe furniture - or for handwash/dry clean items. So neat!
July 11th, 2008 at 8:08 pm
I’ve been wanting to try these since I first came across the site. I have sensitive skin, would love to give this a try!

July 11th, 2008 at 8:21 pm
I’ve been hearing a lot about them, and I just want to give ‘em a try! I’d also like to introduce my mom to them. She’d love the idea.
July 11th, 2008 at 8:31 pm
These can be used in HE washing machines! That’s wonderful. I’m looking for ways to go greener and there aren’t many choices for HE washing machines.
July 11th, 2008 at 8:36 pm
I would love to try Soapnuts, because I really don’t like using the detergents with all the chemicals.
July 11th, 2008 at 8:59 pm
Says they are good for Hi-efficiency, front-loading machines, which is good, bec I’ve got one!
I also have sensitive skin and have to buy everything frangrance-free, so finding soap that is fragrance-free AND low-sudsing is difficult and expensive (like Tide HE, Free formula).
Would love to try the Soapnuts.
July 11th, 2008 at 9:44 pm
Looks like a great product.
July 11th, 2008 at 9:48 pm
ive never heard of these before but would love to give them a try. Do they work i those special less water/less energy machines as well?

July 11th, 2008 at 10:25 pm
I’d love to try these in my new HE washer! Apparently the soapnut soak can also be used as shampoo–who knew!?
July 11th, 2008 at 10:47 pm
I’ve been dying to try these. I love that they’re safer for the environment than chemical cleaners.
Aside from using them for the laundry, I’d love to try them as a jewelry cleaner.

July 11th, 2008 at 11:11 pm
I want to try these because with my family I do a lot of laundry and I am sick of the recycle bin filling up with the plastic bottles. Soap nuts have less of an environmental impact overall and in packaging.
July 11th, 2008 at 11:11 pm
I’ve never heard of soap nuts before this. I’d love to give these a try. They also give instructions on how to make glass cleaner from the soap nuts too.
July 11th, 2008 at 11:41 pm
love this
July 11th, 2008 at 11:45 pm
the most important feature to me is that they are all natural
July 11th, 2008 at 11:54 pm
I’m glad that they can be used for cloth diapers as well. My son has sensitive skin so we have to be careful about the products we use!!!

I had no idea that you could use soapnut soak to clean your produce. What a versatile product! I would love to give these a try.

Since having my baby, I’ve wanted to switch to a more all-natural detergent. I’d love to try these crazy things!

I think these would be great for travel because you could carry them on in your luggage if you are traveling light, unlike liquid detergent which you have to limit to 3 oz or check
July 12th, 2008 at 10:15 am
I would try this
July 12th, 2008 at 10:28 am
Wow! I have never heard of these before! I am trying to cut back on the amount of chemicals that my family uses. We have allergies and I am also trying to be more earth-friendly. I would love to give these a try!

Love the product it looks wonderful for patient/family that have sun/skin cancer for sensitivity to and with the skin. Thanks
July 12th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
I would like to try them because I have two kids who are allergic to most laundry soaps. (amazingly Tide is not one of them, weird) But I also cloth diaper and need to be careful what soaps I use with them. The one in cloth diapers is one that is allergic to most detergents. I need to find something natural for my children’s skin and for the dipes.
July 12th, 2008 at 12:53 pm
Soap nuts are an interesting concept. I like the fact that they are organic and chemical free.
July 12th, 2008 at 2:04 pm
Soapnuts are supposed to be good for Eczema, which my husband has. I’d love to give them a try and see if they help his sensitive skin! Thanks so much!
July 12th, 2008 at 3:07 pm
I’m a cloth diapering mama and I think these would work great for that!! My boys have such sensitive skin anyway!
July 12th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
I have used soap nuts and they are really cool. They look like critter droppings (LOL) but they work pretty good and I love that they are safe for my family and the enviroment.
July 12th, 2008 at 3:09 pm
I have never heard of soap nuts.Very good for the family and earth friendly. THANKS
July 12th, 2008 at 3:30 pm
I would wash Jesse Jackson’s mouth out with them.
July 12th, 2008 at 4:42 pm
I have been tryin to find more ways to be green (ECO-Friendly). Think of all the less waste from plastic containers, and less chemicals. I hate all the chemicals in everything. I have super sensitive skin! It is so cool that you can use these in the laundry, Jewlry, and also for hair! Then I can send it out to my backyard compost heap! Yes I am a little hippyish…I definllyhave to try these!

July 12th, 2008 at 7:08 pm
I would like to try them in the laundry and as just a regular cleaner like the site suggests. There are a lot of things like this I’m running across lately and I’m curious to how they will work, but with the economy I cautious about spending my money on things that I’m not sure of. I sure hope they really do work though!

July 12th, 2008 at 10:27 pm

I am trying to go green in small steps - haven’t started in the laundry room yet and soap nuts would be a great start.

I would love to try Soap Nuts! It seems like everyone in my home has some sort of sensitivity to every kind of detergent I buy! I am also trying to be more organic these days!
July 12th, 2008 at 11:17 pm
I have sensitive skin and these sound like they would be perfect for me to try.
July 12th, 2008 at 11:21 pm
I would like to try SoapNuts because they are a 100% natural cleaning product. Using them would be enviromentally friendly and I am trying to do more to help out the environment. In addition, I have sensitive skin and would like to try SoapNuts out because they are great for people with sensitive skin. This is a great giveaway and I really hope I win. Thanks.
July 13th, 2008 at 12:02 am
I’m always looking for better alternatives to the usual commercial detergents that I’m using!
July 13th, 2008 at 1:09 am
I like that it is a natural cleaner. I am interested using it as a jewelry cleaner.
July 13th, 2008 at 1:13 am
My goodness; we can use it as a produce wash? So many different uses for this that it’s like an all purpose cleanser. Only without all the crap.
Thanks for the wonderful giveaways and for leading us to greener pastures dkmommy!

I also like that it is versatile and can be used as a produce wash. I have a large family and would love to see how this works, since I do lots of laundry.
July 13th, 2008 at 1:38 am
I’m very interested in these…I would love to try them because they’re organic. And we’ve been working on changing over to all organics!

THat is the craziest thing I have ever seen. We have friends in Indonesia - I have to ask them about these nuts. I would love to try them out! Thanks….I also subscribed to your blog.
July 13th, 2008 at 7:27 am
I’ve never seen anything like it before, I’d like to try it!
July 13th, 2008 at 8:09 am
I would love to give this a try. I could do my laundry AND clean my produce!!!!
July 13th, 2008 at 9:26 am
I’m always looking for a different laundry solution than my big plastic behemoth of a jug I lug from the store each month. It makes my back spasm, I’m sure, so these little nuts will be more welcome than a pair of flip flops on a hot beach. For real!
July 13th, 2008 at 9:57 am
I want to try SoapNuts because it is a new, eclectic spin on cleaning.
July 13th, 2008 at 10:16 am
I want to try them because I want to find a natural nontoxic detergent.
July 13th, 2008 at 10:44 am
I love the fact that they are all natural, that alone would make me want to try them!
July 13th, 2008 at 11:37 am
I would love to try these to see if they work.
July 13th, 2008 at 11:47 am
Soap Nuts sound pretty neat. I’d like to give them a try.
July 13th, 2008 at 12:02 pm
how cool i’d love to try them because they are just ‘different’ and intriguing!!
Thanks for a great contest! I hope I’m the lucky winner
July 13th, 2008 at 12:48 pm
I want to try them because these are definately green and I hate buying the big plastic bottles of detergent. I think I would try the energy essential oil first!
July 13th, 2008 at 1:00 pm
I’d like to try them because anything “Green” is a good thing. Also, my son has a skin condition and I am always looking for alternative products that are natural and not chemical laden.
July 13th, 2008 at 1:08 pm
So far I haven’t found a green alternative that works as well as the big brand names. I’d love to find a really good product that would work well, save money and save space in the laundry room.
I can make Soapnut Soak and use it for cold water washing or even shampoo! Who would have ever thought of that.
July 13th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
Everyday I learn about new ways to do your ordinary chores a healthier, greener way! Today, this one tops them all! I would love to try this non-toxic way to do laundry! Laundy Tree Soap Nuts is the most genius product I have heard of in a long time! Laundytree.com is a wonderful website with many great products. I learned a lot from visiting there today!
July 13th, 2008 at 1:37 pm
I love that they are 100% natural and they leave the clothes with no scent. I get bad headaches with the scented laundry products so this would be great to try! Thanks for the giveaway!
July 13th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
count me in please
July 13th, 2008 at 2:28 pm
Wow - I read your blog on these with fascination…unbelievable. I would love to try these, as I don’t like doing my laundry with harsh chemicals & odors.
Thanks for the giveaway!
July 13th, 2008 at 3:53 pm
After reading about these, you can color me “amazed”! A very important item for me was that soapnuts are great for high-efficiency (HE, or front-loading) washers! Jeepers - they can be used for everything from jewelry cleaner to produce wash. That’s what I call versatility!!! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
July 13th, 2008 at 6:22 pm
wow! 100% natural, i love that, i hate using chemicals so this would be great for us!
July 13th, 2008 at 6:49 pm
I’ve got a new baby and would love to switch to a more natural cleaner! They say on the site they are great for cloth diapers.

i love anything that’s all natural, i have very sensitive skin so this would be so great for me!
July 13th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
I want whiter clothes.
July 13th, 2008 at 8:40 pm
Bleach is not used in my house so this “soap nuts” is a great discovery if it really works.
July 13th, 2008 at 9:32 pm
a wonderful site, I currently use a few green products, but mostly from seventh generation. I would love to try this product. The sampler pack sounds like a good back to start and ocean breeze scent oil. Thanks for the contest
July 13th, 2008 at 9:51 pm
Soap nuts are an amazing, 100% natural cleaning product
July 13th, 2008 at 10:24 pm
Very, very cool! I would love to try soapnuts because they are all natural, good for the environment and cause no irritation for people with sensitive skin! Thanks so much for the opportunity to win!
July 13th, 2008 at 11:13 pm
I have sensitive skin and these look quite unique and plus they are good for environment - thanks so much for the great contest!
July 13th, 2008 at 11:29 pm
I would love to try these out for my two little boys. Since the youngest is still only 5 months, I need something sensitive like this. Thanks for the contest!
July 13th, 2008 at 11:38 pm
Since tonight is the last night for the giveaway I am not going to post a link on my blog just to get an extra entry. Not really fair considering the day is almost over. I’d love to try these because I have sensitive skin and therefore I cannot use a lot of products. These look great! Thanks for the chance
July 14th, 2008 at 12:58 am
I would like to try Soapnuts because I am interested in learning more about an environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic detergents.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:39 am
Soapnuts are antimicrobial and beneficial for septic and greywater systems–how cool is that? These things look amazing!
July 14th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
I have seen these as a friend of mine uses them. They are fantastic and I would love to try them myself. The website looks like it has lots of good ideas for using the nuts. Count me in.
