I honestly thought that when we dropped our daughter off at college in August that we would see her frequently on weekends. Boy was I wrong. She’s taken to college like a fish to water and has only been home once in the last six weeks. I’m actually really glad about that but it means that I didn’t send her with nearly enough cleaning supplies than she needs. I decided to visit her this past weekend and make my delivery a little fun and Halloween themed by putting together a “Trick or Treat” box filled with A Plus Values for a (hopefully) A Plus Student!
I headed out to Walmart to pick up some Henkel products to fill a box.

You may not know the parent company Henkel but I’m sure you are familiar with some of their products like Dial, Purex and Renuzit.



I suppose most college kids would say this Halloween box was stuffed full of “tricks,” lol!
When I was younger we had a little jingle that we sang at Halloween it went like this:
Trick or Treat, Smell My Feet, Give Me Something Good to Eat
Not too Big, Not too Small, Just the Size of Montreal
So I took the inspiration of that to put together the “Trick or Treat” box.

And I filled it with things every college freshman student needs to keep clean and smelling good.

Purex Ultrapacks, Purex Dryer Sheets, Dial Liquid Handsoap and Renuzit Adjustables.


College is expensive, so I try and save where I can so when the housing bills come due we’re not overwhelmed with the price tag. Along with the affordable products to begin with, I’m taking advantage to Get $10 Back in Coupon Savings* (*Coupon savings delivered electronically via opt-in e-mail. While supplies last. $20 purchase requirement based on advertised retail price, before coupons.) that you can get through the #APlusValues. All you need to do to get the coupons is:
Enter your e-mail address and upload your receipt here to enter the A+Values program. If your receipt is valid, you will receive your $10 coupon booklet via e-mail from Henkel and Coupons.com. You can find all the participating products here.
And just so you don’t think I’m a completely dull mother….

she did get some “treats” with her box too 🙂

Oh my gosh, that made me laugh! I love this, what a great college student package 🙂
I just lost the cool mom of the year award. Good job.
Based on the stink I experienced upon visiting my son's college dorm room for the first time, I know this stuff is vital. VITAL, I tell you!
You are such a fun mom. What a great little box and I love the little note.
What a great way to "trick" her into cleaning and doing laundry! I love Henkel products because they do such a great job. Here's to your daughter having an A Plus year! #client
Great job on the trick or treat box. I remember getting care packages from my mom when I was in college. It was always awesome.
This is such a great idea. I love those air fresheners they work great. I've always been a Purex fan since I started doing my own laundry.
That's a great gift box! I love the Rest in Peach freshner!!
I loved it when "care" packages arrived for me when I was in college!
What a fantastic box! Everything is put together so very well.
You did a fantastic job! 🙂
That is a great college package! And "Rest in Peach"… LOL!
This Trick-or-Treat box is a great idea. It's perfect for college students.
