Win A Holiday To Costa Rica With Method
It's that time of the week again. You look around your home and there seems to be an endless number of chores to do. Finally wash the mugs you've been hoarding, collect up the infinite amount of pet fur, and don't even mention the loo...

Well, we'll stop you right there. Method is on a mission to challenge cleaning stereotypes and bring an end to the dreaded "Chore Wars". With 39% of cohabiting couples saying most of their arguments are about household chores, Method cleaning products are here to restore harmony to your home.
Has your bathroom become a battleground? Does it kick off in your kitchen? Tell us about the dirt dodgers in your house for your chance to win an escape to Costa Rica.
