One Night in the Tropics release 
I’m a sucker for packaging. When I first saw Method products (they carry them at Target around here) I picked them up for the cute packaging before I saw that they were green, healthy products. I’m addicted to the seasonal pear scent and I plan on grabbing another 15 candles this holiday season.
Once I figured out that Method products are healthy for the environment and my family (and totally come in a bunch of clever and yummy varieties) I picked up hand wash and surface cleaner and wipes.
I like the fragrances, but I also have to be careful with what I use because my older son is super sensitive with fragrances and chemicals. His eczema flare-ups make him super uncomfortable and his behavior rapidly declines when he’s itchy.
I like Method’s free and clear line with no dyes or perfumes. You don’t actually need smelly smelly fragrances to clean your home. We’re all used to air fresheners and perfumes covering smells or giving us an illusion of clean when clean really smells like “nothing.”
Method’s People Against Dirty campaign is cheeky and fun. I dig it. Mostly I like the prices and availability. I’ve seen the brand branch out into regular grocery stores in addition to Target and that makes me happy. You can also pick it up online and on Amazon.com.
I definitely recommend this brand if you’re looking for nontoxic cleaners. Keep in mind that nontoxic doesn’t mean you can DRINK this stuff or make it available to your toddlers. But it does mean you can rest easier when you’re cleaning surfaces that food/hands/mouths are going to come in contact with.

My least favorite chore is NOT cleaning the bathroom. It’s in fact, cleaning the kitchen floor. It’s an endless, back aching task.
I’ve also just followed Method on Twitter (@lindaole)
Thanks for the great giveaway!
I hate dusting. And cleaning those hard to reach areas like the floor behind the toilet, next to the washer, under the fridge– which is also essentially DUSTING. I’m following your mama reviews AND method on twitter. I’m @superjules.
Doing the dishes.
my leave favorite house hold chore is cleaning out the cat litter box….but alas, I love my cats and do this daily for their benefit.
I hate cleaning the toilet but I love the design of the toilet cleaner bottle. I don’t mind doing this unsavory chore if it means I get to play with this cool bottle.
Also I’m following Method on Twitter. Do I get bonus points if they are following me?
I don’t like cleaning toilets, or behind the toilets. Of course I still do it, but it’s my least favorite.
I also followed Method and Your Mama Reviews on Twitter. (@hol410)
I hate cleaning the shower! And I really don’t like doing the dishes, but that still happens every day.
I follow Methodtweet on Twitter (@tarasana)
I hate vacuuming!
And I’m following Method on twitter! Love them. If only they could make vacuuming as fun as cleaning the toilet! (@kburk)
I love Method products and I completely agree about clean smelling like nothing. I hate heavily scented anything. My least favorite household chore is laundry. Can’t really explain it, but I’d rather clean a toilet than do a load of laundry.
I HATE doing the dishes, mostly because I associate the smell of dish soap with nasty food-encrusted plates. I love Method unscented stuff b/c it doesn’t give me that association!
I also follow Method on twitter…
I hate cleaning the bathtub, but I love Method! I already follow them on Twitter. I love the way their dish soap looks; I keep it on my sink all the time!
I don’t like cleaning the bathroom. It gets dirty so fast with 3 males in the house…whom need to learn to aim.

Mopping / scrubbing the floor. It’s messy, it makes my back hurt, and it’s dirty again within a day or two.
I think it’s really neat that most of their refills (like the hand wash) come in squeezable plastic pouches instead of big bottles.
Emptying the dishwasher is pretty high on that list.

I HATE SWEEPING!!!!! my husband said hardwood floors were better on our allergies so all the carpet got takin up and we put laminate flooring down so now i have to sweep everyday and it still looks dusty!! Hate It!!!

I HATE to dust!
My Favorite task is taking a shower! Why? Cause I feel clean, then afterwards, my showers smells AWESOME because of teh Ylang Ylang Daily Shower Spray!
I do NOT like to scrub the tub, with its icky tub rings and the stuff that imbeds itself in the tile.
I loathe unloading the dryer + folding clothes. I have no problem filling the washer up, but when it comes to transferring/unloading I avoid it at all costs!
I like the multipurpose spray cleaner bottle and soap dispenser. Their products are very eye appealing and offer wonderful fragrances.

I hate cleaning the toilets!
I *hate* cleaning under the toilet seat :P
My least favorite household chore is putting up clean laundry!!! With 5 kids and 1 husband, the laundry NEVER ends! I don’t mind washing, drying, or even folding! But outting it all up is a pain!
following method on twitter now! :)
i *love* how the hand soap bottles look! very clean and classy looking! i don’t mind having them in my bathrooms and kitchen! i love how they look and how they show off the pretty soap inside!
My least favorite household chore is scrubbing the toilet. I will do ANYTHING to avoid doing that if I can. I wish everyone else would clean it several times a week so I wouldn’t have to touch that nasty commode!
I don’t Twitter, but I Facebook. :)
I love the look of the children’s body wash. The animals are cute! The dish soap is also cool, because it looks completely different from all of the other bottles out there.
I have several chores that are my least favorite. To top the list – I hate mopping/cleaning the floor. Always seems time consuming and it’s just an all out chore to do. Hate trying to mop under the counters.. getting enough to the cabinets to feel like I have actually gotten things clean. Next, I hate cleaning out the shower stall. Luckily I use the method shower spray but I still give a good scrub down every few months. It’s difficult to clean standup shower stalls for some reason…. sometimes I feel like I should have just jumped in the shower with my cleaners and done the deed – clean body, clean shower at the same time that way at least.
Last would be unloading the dishwasher and folding/hanging clothes from the dryer. Come Method! Make something that will do those two things for me and I will be happy!!! :)

I do not like ironing. It is not my favorite at all.
The one thing I absolutely hate doing but have no choice is the bathrooms. I have 2.5 and there are so many surfaces that have to be cleaned and cleaned right. But I am going to give method a try and see. The showers have to be the hardest to clean so lets see how the shower spray works.
I hate mopping the kitchen floor. HATE it.
The body wash for kids (in peach, specifically) looks cool and my daughter would love it.
