Cash Prize Cleansers

The Virginia Candle Company's Money Soap Contains Real US Currency

Money Soap is one way to incentivize people to take hygiene seriously. Every bar contains a tube containing real money. It could be $1, $5, $10, $20 or even $50, but you won't know until the bar is worn down to the middle. The scented soap from the Virginia Candle Company has a pleasant pearberry fragrance.

The green glycerin soap is made in the United States and is intended for external use only, on the hands and body. The novelty item makes a great gag gift, as well as an educational tool for young children. To encourage them to wash their hands more often, the excitement combined with the cash prize is fun motivation. There's also the added bonus of potentially having Money Soap pay for itself.
