In a bygone era when women wore dresses and high heels to carry their families’ laundry in a wicker basket to their very first automatic washing machine, they turned to Tide for “the cleanest clothes possible.” More than a half-century later, families still turn to Tide, now offered in more than two dozen liquid and powder formulas. To celebrate its 65th Anniversary, Tide is issuing special-edition packages with the 1947 label. Procter & Gamble (P&G) invites consumers to enjoy a blast from the past with retro-packaged Tide, Bounce and Downy available at Target in May, while supplies last.
The vintage packaging harkens back to Tide’s early print advertising, which featured copy such as:
- Washday soaps? Jane tried ‘em all, And every new detergent. But, none matched Tide – and so she cried, „“Please send some Tide! It’s urgent!“
- Detergents, soaps, she tried them all and wasn’t satisfied … But now his shirts are dazzling clean! Smart girl … she turned to Tide!
My Thoughts: Tide is a name I always knew growing up since it’s been around before I was even born. And it’s nice to see a product stick around for so long. Then I know it’s a proven product. I love P&G’s idea of bringing back the retro look of Tide and I think it’s fun to see how much things have changed. Even just the thought of women wearing dresses and high heels doing laundry. I won’t even tell you what I wear while doing laundry! Things sure have changed.
You can purchase the retro-packaged products at Target nationwide.
WIN IT

usually jeans and a tshirt (since that’s usually what I wear every day!) I usually do laundry on Wed/Thur/Fri. Even though my kids go to public school our middle school (just the middle school, the high school & primary school’s don’t require it) requires the students to purchase ($20) gym clothes which is a tshirt with our school logo and their last name on the back and gym shorts with the logo on one leg and their initials on the other. Next year we’ll get another set (maybe) so laundry day isn’t so crazy. I think its crazy, and feel for the families that really struggle.

Me and the kids actually have a lot of clothes so we can still wear what we want when the laundry is piled up. My husband, on the other hand, doesn’t have many clothes so he usually wears pajama pants or sweats while waiting for his jeans and shorts to get clean. Thanks.
