Q. "When and Why is laundry detergent a suitable gift?"
A. The right laundry detergent can be a wonderful gift for many occasions. I've found some of the best times to give laundry detergents as gifts are when friends are going through a change in their lives; think a high school graduate going to college, an expectant mother's baby shower, or a happy couple moving into their first place together. Moments like these tend to fly by in a flash, during which much of the small stuff is put to the side until the need arises. Why not help fulfill that need before your loved one even realizes they have it?
Your nephew going off to college will be busy planning out all his classes, jittering about a new school/town/state/country, and all the stuff he needs to pack to have a fun time. If he's like most college age boys, he'll probably forget all about how he'll wash his clothes. That's where you come in with a big box or multi pack of extra strength Persil detergent for him to keep his clothes clean and fresh to impress his teachers and female classmates with ;)
Is your best friend having a baby? Then it's likely she's in a similar mad rush to get "everything" right and ready for her new baby. Clothes of course play a HUGE role for the mother to be; not only will she be buying lots and lots for her baby boy or girl, but so will her friends and family. All this new clothing will mean a lot of washing. But when it comes to baby clothing, not just any detergent will do. With baby's sensitive skin, it's best to use detergents specially formulated for newborns/toddlers. There are quite a few options in the Persil detergent range made for baby's sensitive skin.
And how about your best friends new home? Moving can be a very hectic experience; trying to get everything moved and in place, kept track of with hopefully nothing lost in the process. During the first week or two your friends will be running around unpacking everything; and that includes dirty clothes hastily packed in bags or boxes to make the move on time. Plus they'll have even more dirty clothes they've been accumulating during the move and unpacking. Of course once it comes time to clean all that laundry, chances are their laundry detergent will be packed away with other miscellaneous items. Why not save them the trouble of having to dig through endless boxes before finally giving up and buying new detergent, by giving them a great selection of Persil laundry detergents as an early house warming gift?
These are just a few instances of laundry detergent being a fantastic gift for family and friends; the great thing about laundry detergent though is that it's a very versatile gift good for nearly any occasion!
Which leaves us with one final question left to address:
Q. "How do you give someone laundry detergent as a gift?"
A. There's actually a very simple answer to that question: The best way I have found is to create a laundry gift basket. This could be composed of various boxes and bottles of Persil, some fabric softener, and dryer sheets all packed in a laundry basket (where else?!)
So, next time a friend asks you what they should give as a gift, proudly declare: laundry detergent!
