**This Contest is Over – Thank you to everyone for entering!
I received an email from Hefty asking me if I wanted to test out a box of Hefty’s Kitchen Bags with Unscented Odor Block Technology. AND – besides trying out the bags, Hefty also asked if I could offer a giveaway to one of my Addicted to Saving readers!! Of course I jumped at the chance! I love reviewing products and even more, I love providing my readers with fun giveaways!
For my review – I was excited to try Hefty’s Unscented bags. I do not like scented trash bags. They give me a headache and beyond that they just smell foul to me. So, these bags were great from the get-go because they have Odor Blocking Technology but don’t have that overpowering scent that scented garbage bags have. I used my Hefty bag like I use all of my kitchen garbage bags. I filled it up with scraps of veggies, fruit, meat, and of course regular “trash” items like empty wrappers, papers, etc. Last week was kind of a crazy week for me so while it normally takes me less than a couple of days to fill the bag, last week it took me about four days to fill the garbage bag. By day four, my bag was filled to the rim and ready to go out. Both my husband and I were impressed with the quality of the bags, the strength of the ties and the fact that the bag didn’t smell like it had been sitting in my kitchen full of cooking scraps for four days! We were impressed and we are using another Hefty bag as I type this post. 🙂

For our family, the thing that makes the litter stink the most is the cat litter. We have 4 cats and it is my sons job to scoop the 3 litter boxes every day. He wraps it up in 2 smaller bags and then drops it into the trash can. In about 30 minutes it mixes with the other smells of the trash can and smells worse than you can possibly imagine! EWW!
The scented bags that are on the market right now affect my sons allergies and make him sneeze as well as have horrible headaches. I can’t wait to try the new ones!

Leftovers and things from the fridge and kids lunches usually cause the worst smells. After a bag sits for three or four days waiting to be full, during the week, it gets pretty smelly!
