"We know consumers are always looking for innovative solutions to help tackle household chores and ease their daily routine," said Kelly M. Semrau, Senior Vice President – Global Corporate Affairs, Communication and Sustainability at SC Johnson. "The Scrubbing Bubbles® One Step Toilet Bowl Cleaner is just that – a one-step solution that revolutionizes the way busy families approach toilet cleaning."

"One and Done" Solutions

Colleen Padilla(2) - founder of ClassyMommy.com and mother of two - uses time saving tips to free up her day and manage her to-do list.

"Our household is definitely a hectic one. Just like everyone else, we are always looking for easy solutions to household chores – even if it means doing them together so we spend less time cleaning and more time playing," said Padilla. "The Scrubbing Bubbles® One Step Toilet Bowl Cleaner is just that – a one-step solution that helps do the job for you. And – no more arguing about who gets that dreaded job!"

Padilla teamed up with Scrubbing Bubbles® to share additional "one and done" solutions to help get through the day, including:

• Form a Routine. Nothing is worse than facing a house that has been neglected all week. Set a 15 minute rule with the family to keep things tidy and neat on a daily basis. This helps everyone stay on track when Monday morning rolls around and will help you avoid being overwhelmed.
• Pack Now, Enjoy Later! I like to pack my kids (and my own) lunches the night before. This makes our early mornings seamless when trying to get everyone out the door.
• Peace of Mind is Just a Step Away. Keeping the toilet clean is a daunting task, but with the Scrubbing Bubbles® One Step Toilet Bowl Cleaner I just step on the pedal twice a day and it helps clean the toilet for me. I feel better knowing there is one less thing to worry about—especially in the bathroom!
• Automatic Time Savings. Using automatic bill pay really saves me a lot of time and hassle. I set all the bills to be paid on the same day so I know everything is getting paid on time and it's something I never have to put on my to-do list.

Shake Your One Step Dance Contest

In addition to launching this one-of-a-kind product, Scrubbing Bubbles® is also kicking off the "Shake Your One Step" Dance Contest on the Scrubbing Bubbles® Facebook Page.  Everyone will have the opportunity to submit a dance video of themselves showing America how they like to get the job done and have a little fun.

Each week there will be a $500 prize given to the dancer whose video gets the highest number of the votes and the chance to win a grand prize of $2,500 and a "Shriek to Chic" bathroom redesign plan from celebrity interior designer, Lisa LaPorta. So dust off those dance shoes and get ready to One Step your way to glory!
