“I’m thrilled to be partnering with Bounty during the Olympic
Games season as it’s a product I use in my life every single day
and I couldn’t live without it,” said Allyson Felix, Olympic Gold
Medalist. “While I’m quick on the track, I’ve got to be super
speedy at home too! I’m always a fan of products that can help me
do things better and Bounty helps me pick up messes in record
time,” Felix added.
Additionally, Bounty is asking people to share their best
quicker picker upper tips showcasing how Bounty helps them beat the
clock when it comes to cleaning up spills and messes. People can
