CLOSED: Tide with Acti-Lift Back to School Contest

Now that school has started, your child's day will be filled with messy arts and crafts, greasy lunch spills and difficult grass stains. Back-to-school doesn't have to mean back-to-stains.

This season, feel good about letting your kids be kids, when you use Tide with Acti-Lift. Acti-Lift's stain fighting technology includes the ingredients:

• Enzymes: Help clean and clear the fabric surface to allow for stains to be lifted away.
• Polymers: Offer deep cleaning power to help pull stains off garments and keep them away
• Booster: An added agent that helps brighten whites with every wash.

Tide lifts many dry stains as if they were fresh with its Acti-Lift technology and is sure to help save precious time and money spent on laundry, getting an 'A plus' grade from moms across the country.

Visit www.tide.ca for helpful product information, practical tips on laundry care, special offers and promotions, updated fabric care articles, and an interactive Stain Detective, which provides official Tide stain removal solutions.

The worst stain is tomato sauce that wasn't immediately washed - I've washed the same shirt at least 6 times and I can still see it.

The worst stain would have to be grass ones off of his jeans. I am not sure what they were doing at school one day but he had them on his butt, his knees and they were almost impossible to get out

The worst stain is from pesto, I guess it's the oil and I didn't wash it out right away. It was a brand new shirt so I'm mad at myself for letting it get stained!

Mushed banana- absolute worst. I can NEVER get it out. It turns brown and stains. I've gotten out paint, pen ink, crayon, permanent marker, grass, tomato and all manner of food stains, but banana is my nemesis

I would have to say when my kid's decided to pick these purplish red berries off the tree in our backyard and mix and mush them up in bowls on our deck the mess was all over their clothes and I could not remove them even after multiple washings.
