8/30/2023 0 Comments Downy unstoppable commercial![]() ![]() Both my car and kitchen smell fantastic now – you definitely notice the fresh, clean scent when you walk in the room or get in the vehicle. The first load of laundry I did with Unstopables consisted of the floor mats from my car and the area rugs from my kitchen. Keep in mind that it’s not actually a fabric softener (in fact, Downy advises using regular Downy in conjunction with Unstopables if you actually want the laundry softened.)įiguring the good smell would wash out the next time the clothes is laundered, I started thinking about what I could wash that wouldn’t need to be washed for awhile again. And since the smell is so long-lasting, I started thinking about what I could wash with it. I opened it up and was immediately rewarded by the nice, clean smell I remembered from the six-month-old towel. (Again, yes, I am that stubborn.!) At the end of the P&G BlogHer house tour, reps stated that attendees would be mailed full-size samples of many of the products we saw during the conference.Ībout two weeks ago, the P&G samples did indeed arrive… including a bottle of Downy Unstopables. So I decided I wouldn’t buy it - solely due to the misspelling. But now I’m really digressing.ĭespite Unstopables’ nice and super-long-lasting smell, I couldn’t shake the idea that I’d be rewarding Downy for their bad spelling by buying the product. The sushi bar is called “Golden Rolls,” but their sign says “Golden Roll’s.” Know what that apostrophe on their sign is doing? Preventing me from spending any money at Golden Rolls until that sign is fixed. I’m so bothered by bad spelling and punctuation that, as much as I love sushi, I won’t even patronize a sushi place near our house because of a punctuation error on its sign. I’m the kind of person who finds The “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks and The Great Typo Hunt both hilarious and sad. It’s just one of those pet peeves of mine. As a writer, a former copy editor, and a Journalism/English major in college, I loathe seeing grammatical, punctuation and spelling errors in professional use. The P&G rep did not have a satisfactory answer to that question. I did.)Īside from the “What’s in it that makes the scent last so long” question in my mind, the more pressing question in my mind was this: “Why is the word ‘Unstoppables’ spelled incorrectly?” The rep said “That towel was washed six months ago in Downy Unstopables.” It smelled great! It was just the way you likely want your laundry to smell when it comes out of the wash: not perfumey - just fresh and clean. ![]() When I walked into the P&G laundry room, I was immediately handed a towel with a Downy Unstopables logo on it. ![]() Procter & Gamble had a big booth designed like a house, and bloggers were invited to walk room to room, learning about various P&G products. I first encountered Downy Unstopables at the BlogHer ’11 conference last month. Perhaps you’ve seen Downy’s newest product, Downy Unstopables. ![]()
