Gain's New Dishwasing Liquid - A Pre-Review and Giveaway

I hate doing the dishes.  Seriously - it is one of my least favorite chores.  In the summer, it is too hot to be standing over a sink of steaming water.  In the winter, I get very dry cracked hands, and doing dishes certainly doesn't do me any favors.  I'm all for equality, so I don't like dishes during the spring and fall just to be fair.   Besides, the weather is so gorgeous in the spring and fall that I'd rather be outside.  For some reason sinks are made just a smidge too low for me, so doing dishes also hurts my back (though not nearly as much as it did when I was pregnant).  In fact, I'm going to share a little secret with you.  There are some days when I don't cook just so I won't have to do the dishes. Shhhh! 

So, when MyBlogSpark contacted me to do a review of Gain's new dishwashing liquid with the statement:

Now, everything you love about Gain is available for your dishes. With three refreshing scents, you can kiss the days of boring, unpleasant dishwashing goodbye! You´ll soon find yourself saying, "Honey, I´ll do the dishes tonight."

I was skeptical, but thought, "Why not!"  I'll give almost anything a try once - especially if it might make me enjoy dishes more (or even better, make my husband want to do them instead!).

I have received my package with the Gain dishwashing liquid (fresh scent) three shirts (size large) and three $5 Walmart gift cards.  I was originally planning on giving it all away, but have decided to use one $5 gift card for myself to try a different scent of Gain (after which I will provide you with my review of this new product since I think I'm more of a lavender girl).  Also, one of my good friends (and fellow dish washing despiser) will receive another of the gift cards.  However, I am saving one $5 gift card and one shirt, for you, my sometimes loyal readers.

Here's what you have to do to win (mandatory):

1. Go to Gain's website and tell me which scent you'd most like to try.  Also tell me which color shirt you'd most like to have if you win.  Be sure to leave your email address in your comment if it isn't visible on your profile.
