Skoy Cloth Review & Giveaway!

In a household full of kids, a dog and my husband, there are usually many reasons I need a towel or a paper towel. And after a while it can really start to pile up! Either you have to wash towels daily, or you are wasting a TON of paper towels. Between normal cleaning and cleaning up after everyone, it gets to be a bit much. I am on a eco-friendly kick lately and have been searching for ways to lessen our impact on the earth.  In my quest for earth friendliness I have come across Skoy and their amazing Skoy Cloths! 

The Skoy cloth is an absorbent, biodegradable cloth that you can use for all kinds of household tasks!  Use it in every room of the house for all sorts of cleaning jobs!  I love it to pick up spills quickly and for washing dishes! I was really impressed at how well they held up to scrubbing pots and pans! And best of all, they are totally reusable! They replace sponges, paper towels, and significantly reduces your use of kitchen towels! This has gotten me down to washing kitchen towels once a week!!!
http://www.skoycloth.com/doc/C6.jpg 
Skoy cloths are made of natural cotton and wood-based cellulose pulp and is European made. Using a SKOY cloth is equivalent to using 15 rolls of paper towels in an average home. With the high cost of paper towels, as much as $2 per roll, SKOY cloth is the obvious choice for your wallet and the environment. The SKOY cloth has an absorption factor of 15x its own weight.  This cloth is definitely worth the money!!  A 4 pack is only $6.99!!  Best of all, since it dries quickly, you have far less bacteria on your cloth.  Another way to keep it bacteria free is to microwave it for 1-2 minutes, making sure you have it damp before putting it in.  (It is very important that the cloth is wet to avoid a fire)  You can wash your Skoy Cloth in the washer or your dishwasher!!  These cloths are so wonderful!!!


I have a 4 pack of Skoy Cloths for one lucky winner!! Keep reading to find out how they could be yours!!:
