New White Cloud Facial Tissue Box Designs by Children’s Network Hospital Children + Upcoming Coupon to Save!

by Briana Carter on June 6, 2013

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of White Cloud for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

As you know,I’m a fan of White Cloud products and I’ve posted many times about how you can get great quality paper products without sacrificing quality. White Cloud is the smart alternative – why pay more for another brand when you can get everything you need with White Cloud! White Cloud has found another reason for me to love them – they are teaming up with the Children’s Miracle Network (“CMN”) to create miracles in the lives of children receiving treatment in its 168 U.S. member hospitals.

As part of its partnership with the Children’s Miracle Network, the children have put their creativity and imaginations to work by illustrating a template that may become a new White Cloud Facial Tissue box design. Can you imagine the smile on a little one’s face when their design is chosen? Possibly a rare moment of normalcy and excitement for a child that faces more challenges in their daily lives than many of us have ever had to face.

White Cloud has had the three winning designs printed on White Cloud Facial Tissue boxes and are now available for sale for a limited time. These are adorable designs might make you stop and think about the talented young artists who created the designs. These designs are adorned with bright colors, polka dots, sunshine and lions!

Remember, White Cloud products are available exclusively at Walmart stores and the winning designs are available in select locations only. Find a store near you using the White Cloud Store Locator.

White Cloud will also be presenting the winner’s hospitals with a $15,000 donation on behalf of White Cloud. Also, be on the look out for a new $0.75 off coupon in July’s All You magazine.

$1 off White Cloud Facial Tissue Printable Coupon + Case of White Cloud Facial Tissue Giveaway!

by Briana Carter on July 26, 2012

It’s that time of year to start thinking about back to school! Yes, it is almost that time. <hears parents cheer and kids groan!> This means it is time to start thinking about what is on your back to school shopping list.

White Cloud is inviting everyone to check out their Back to School promotional tab on Facebook. This is a fun app that allows parents to remember and take part in the excitement when preparing for the new school year. Let’s All Go Back allows you to travel back in time by uploading a photo of your younger self and uploading a photo of your child. We’ve all been tagged in those “way back” pictures enough to find one of ourselves already on Facebook! Don’t laugh at mine!

As a kid, I was one of those that was thrilled to go back to school. I loved school and loved being able to see my friends. We usually shopped for new clothes and shoes during this time too so that also made it fun as it was always a special day with my mom.

Every year when the kids go back to school, I take pictures in our front yard. This is the one day where they actually want me to take their picture as they are usually spiffed up and ready way ahead of schedule. If I forget to get out my camera, you can bet they are asking me if I’m going to take pictures this year. Share some of your memories and family traditions on the White Cloud Back to School App on Facebook.

I’m know you’ve all been reading this very carefully and are now waiting for the part where I tell you about a deal with White Cloud! Yep, there is a deal and it’s a good one. As you know, I’m a fan of White Cloud products and I’ve posted many times about how you can get great quality paper products without sacrificing quality. White Cloud is the smart alternative – why pay more for another brand when you can get everything you need with White Cloud!

Many of you will have facial tissue on your back to school shopping list. I know my elementary age kids normally have it on their list. In the past, my middle school age child has been able to obtain extra credit or something extra from teachers by bringing in a box of facial tissue to share with the class.

Purchase a White Cloud Facial tissue 3-pack for just $2.18 after the coupon available on the White Cloud Facebook Page. This makes it just $0.72 a package, which is a fantastic deal on facial tissue. The prices I’m seeing right now are around $0.82 and up per package for other brands. The coupon you can print out is for a $1 off any facial tissue 3 or 6 pack multipack. Print now and be sure to use before September 30, 2012. If White Cloud facial tissue is not sold in your area (check the store locator here), you will receive a $1 off White Cloud Bath tissue instead of the facial tissue coupon.

Here’s the deal:

White Cloud Facial tissue 3-pack cubes or flats – $3.18
Use $1/1 White Cloud Facial Tissue 3 or 6 pack multipack printable coupon
Net Price: $2.18 or $0.72/each!

White Cloud Bathroom Products Great Value + Printable Coupon

by Briana Carter on May 21, 2012

If your house is anything like mine, you go through quite a bit of bath tissue, otherwise known as TP in our house. Unfortunately, unlike some of the people on that couponing show on television, I do not have a wall of toilet paper. Oh, how I wish I did but I have never been able to get bath tissue completely free like that unless I am using store rewards to purchase it.

Since using store rewards to purchase bath tissue is not always possible, I like to go for a brand that gives me the best value for my money. My goal is always to buy the lowest price bath tissue that I can find that has decent strength as it really needs to pass the FPT (Finger Poke Test.)

We’ve been using White Cloud bath tissue exclusively for several weeks and there have been no complaints in our household. White Cloud 3 ply is just $0.25 for 100 sheets; 2-ply is $0.19 per 100 sheets. This is a fantastic value.

Not only does White Cloud have bath tissue, they also have a new line of facial tissue products, which we discussed here on the blog a couple months back. Right now, on the White Cloud Facebook page, you can get $0.50 off White Cloud Facial Tissue, 90 ct box.

It is only available in select markets so if you have it in your area, grab a few boxes now with the coupon. I know school isn’t even out for most of you but it’s not too early to start stocking up for Back to School Facial Tissue packages! I personally love all the designs available in the facial tissue line.

You may remember the Rate the Roll Challenge I participated in a few years back. In it, I discovered that White Cloud GreenEarth Bath tissue is a great green product and you don’t have to sacrifice softness to support products made from 100% recycled fibers. Best of all, White Cloud GreenEarth products are extremely budget friendly.

Like me during the Rate the Roll Challenge, I would have never guessed the White Cloud products were made with 100% recycled fibers as there was no difference from the non-recycled fiber products. I always was under the impression you had to sacrifice quality to use a green product. You do not have to do that with the White Cloud GreenEarth products.

Consumer Reports has conducted an independent evaluation of 25 bath tissue products including White Cloud 2-ply Soft & Thick and White Cloud 3-ply Ultra. Click here to find out how they did.

White Cloud Green Earth Paper Towels Giveaway + $1 Printable Coupon

by Briana Carter on November 2, 2011

If you’ve been around BargainBriana.com for awhile, you may remember way back when I participated in the White Cloud Rate Your Roll Challenge. Finding the best quality product for the lowest price is always a goal of mine and sharing that information with my readers is important as I know you are looking for value as well.

Having four kids in the house and one very klutzy mom, who makes just as many spills, we are always in need of a good absorbing paper towel. There are some messes you just don’t want to use dish towels for…especially one from the other night, which was so gross, I won’t even discuss!

A few weeks back, White Cloud sent a huge box of paper towel to us. I find the White Cloud Green Earth paper towel to be very comparable to the other brands I normally buy. I would have never guessed it was made with 100% post-consumer recycled fiber as it performs just as well as other brands I’ve used in the past. Not only does it cost less than other brands, it is made from recycled products such as office paper. This is a win win!

Here’s what the recycled fibers slush looks like before it is made into paper towels as I discovered on my trip to the White Cloud Factory last year:

Do you want to try out White Cloud Green Earth Paper Towels? You can print a $1 off Green Earth Paper Towels on WhiteCloud.com. You will also be entered to win a year’s supply of White Cloud Green Earth Paper Towel and Bath Tissue. You can enter this up to one time per day so enter daily for more chances!

It gets even better, I have 10 FREE product coupons to giveaway! Switching to a paper towel that is made from 100% recycled post-consumer fibers is something small you can do, which makes a big impact. ~~The first 10 readers to leave me a comment on this post withe the small steps they’ve taken to be more eco-friendly will win a coupon for a pack of White Cloud Green Earth Paper Towel.~~

White Cloud Roll-volution: Call Out Your Paper Takers #PaperTakers

by Briana Carter on July 20, 2011

We all have our pet peeves when it comes to replacing the toilet paper. The irony is often we get annoyed with the “Paper Takers” for not taking the 10 seconds to replace the roll because we don’t want to take the 10 seconds to replace the roll! Even worse is when there is just one square left on the roll so the previous “Paper Taker” doesn’t have to change the roll. If you ever find yourself in this situation, join me in “Calling Out Your Paper Takers.”

This is how I often find our toilet paper:

Call out the “Paper Taker” in your household by customizing your own video at either WhiteCloud.com or Facebook. This is so simple to do and you don’t even have to be in the video. Simply head over to either White Cloud’s Facebook page and look for “Create Video” to customize your video. If you aren’t on Facebook, you can visit WhiteCloud.com/roll to quickly customize your video. It only takes a few clicks of the mouse to customize your video. You can then send it to your “Paper Take” through Facbeook, Twitter, or email.

Today, July 20, 2011, White Cloud will be hosting a #PaperTaker Twitter Party. Just follow @whitecloudmom from 1 – 2 p.m. CST for a chance to win $25 Walmart gift cards throughout the party when you tweet with #PaperTakers. If you win, you can use your gift cards to try out White Cloud for yourself if you haven’t already used it.

Let’s put a end to these “Paper Takers.” Join the Roll-volution and let White Cloud help stop the madness! Remember, you can customize your own video NOW and take control in a light hearted way! You can also print out this $1 off 1 package of White Cloud Bath Tissue or Paper Towel (excludes 4 pk).

Last year, White Cloud asked me to participate in their Rate the Roll Challenge and I discovered that the White Cloud Green Earth bath tissue not only was a larger roll than the competitor but it was also much softer. I also shared via Video about the absorbency of White Cloud Green Earth paper towels. Me with a giant roll of bath tissue:

Let me know in the comments who in your household is the “Paper Taker.”

Disclosure: White Cloud has compensated me for my time on this project. Rest assured, all opinions and thoughts are always my own. My goal as always is to help you save time and money. For more information read my disclosure policy.

White Cloud Green Earth Bonus Packs

by Briana Carter on April 21, 2011

In honor of Earth Day, White Cloud is offering 50% more Green Earth. Last year, White Cloud asked me to participate in their Rate the Roll Challenge and I discovered that the White Cloud Green Earth bath tissue not only was a larger roll than the competitor but it was also much softer. I also shared via Video about the absorbency of White Cloud Green Earth paper towels.

I think White Cloud Green Earth products are great and I’m sure you will too. In addition to these benefits, White Cloud is offering bonus packs to help stretch your paper product budget! Right now, you will receive 50% more bath tissue, which means three additional rolls for the same price as well as 50% more paper towels, which means one additional roll.

Tomorrow, White Cloud will be promoting Earth Day with a Twitter Party! Just follow @whitecloudmom from 1 – 2 p.m. CST for a chance to win $25 Walmart gift cards throughout the party when you tweet with #green #earthday. If you win, you can use your gift card to try out White Cloud Green Earth Products for yourself!

Last summer, I also had the opportunity to visit the White Cloud headquarters and see how White Cloud paper products are made. Green Earth products are made from 100% recycled materials, which is purchased from the New York area and Eastern Canada.

Kruger Products, which is the manufacturer of White Cloud Green Earth, launched Sustainability 2015 to reduce the company’s environmental footprint across a variety of areas including energy, water, greenhouse gas emissions, waste, and packaging materials.

This summer, White Cloud Green Earth will be sold as a FSC-certified product, which assures consumers that the fiber used in the manufacturing is from sources with certified forest management practices. Kruger Products’ use of recycled paper in it’s products save more than 1.6 million trees a year.

What shade of green will you become this year? What steps are you taking to reduce your footprint?
