Chuck the Yuck is a hip line of . . . barf bags! Designed to stylishly dispose of all pregnancy and kid-related yuck. From morning sickness and motion sickness, to everyday yucky stuff, like dirty diapers and melted ice cream cones, Chuck the Yuck is a hip way to catch and toss it all. With Chuck the Yuck in your diaper bag, handbag and hybrid you will always be prepared for life's yuckiest surprises!

To really understand Chuck the Yuck you'll need a little background. Growing up in the Minisce household being sick meant lying in bed with a cold, wet cloth on your forehead and the appearance of the "big green bowl" hereafter referred to as the BGB. The BGB was (and for those of you wondering, 20 years later, still is) a green Tupperware bowl the size of Texas that our Mom would fish out from the dark recesses of her cabinet to place beside the bed in the instance that the sick Minisce child would have to throw up and be unable to make it to the bathroom. Don't get me wrong, now that we are all parents there are definitely times that we long for our Mom and her BGB. In fact Holly alone has endured so many of those times it would've been nearly impossible for her not to have created Chuck the Yuck.

But, the truth is we, like all moms today, are busy. So tossing the BGB or another updated replacement into the mix isn't a real possibility. Now a cool, streamlined, disposable bag (Chuck the Yuck, of course!) is right up our alley and we think most parents will have our backs on this. So buy a pack of five or better yet several packs of five and you'll thank us later. What's the saying? Oh yeah, better safe than sorry.

Inventor(s):  Heather, Holly & Courtney Minisce

Chuck the Yuck is the passion of three entrepreneurial sisters: Heather, Holly and Courtney Minisce. We are the proud mothers of four boys and one girl.

On July 15, 2007 our Dad passed away from the extremely aggressive disease, ALS (Lou Gehrig's). It was our first experience with terminal illness and within 10 very short months we watched our Dad go from a vibrant, funny, meticulous, 64 year old man to someone who needed help to accomplish the most simple of tasks. We wish he were here to see his dreams for us come true but we won't let his early passing be in vain. We will do all we can to give ALS the visibility it deserves. We will donate a portion of Chuck the Yuck proceeds to the ALS Association to support their tireless efforts to find a cure for this devastating disease.

The product is called TheDishTrap-EZE & Pouch. This invention solves the problem that occures with all Dish Washers. Make your dishwasher more productive and damage free!

 

Problems solved:

1.) Items turning up side down and filling with dirty dishwater.

2.) Items banging together being damaged.

3.) Small items falling to the bottom of the dish washer being damaged or causing damage to the dish washer.

While at a friends house they were emptying their dishwasher. She was complaining about the problems that are listed in the product section. I also have had the same issues. I just accepted the problem as I assumed everyone does. The more we talked the more we became convinced that a product needed to be created to solve this issue. We sought out to do an extensive survey of many types of users to determine the need for such a product. having confirmed the need, we developed a protoype which addressed the issues. We distributed the prototype to several types of users.

They included:
- Families with Infants.
- Families with multiple Children.
- Families that did Entertaining.
- Single Users.

We then obtained feed back on it''s use and any other comments as to it''s design. We made modifications to the prototype and proceeded to the finished product, redistributed the end product to the users. In all cases the final feedback was all positive.

We proceeded to form a company (Time Saving Solutions),Filed for Provincial Patent,developed a web site created a logo, contracted with a manufacturer and look to market the finished product.

TheDishTrap-EZE & Pouch saves Water,Energy & Time which = Money.
The product is made in the USA and is ECO fri

Inventor: William Ryan

My background for over 50 yrs. has been in the Engineering & Energy Conservation field. I resently have retired but don''t feel like living retired (HA,HA).

Developing this product to solve an every day issue for households has made me very worth while.

Being retired does not mean (sent out to pasture). I enjoy being creative. Developing TheDishTrap-EZE & Pouch has rejuvinated my desire to create and solve issues.
