The award-winning DaysAgo Digital Day Counter helps time-crunched, on-the-go families monitor and organize their daily lives. As the winner of a Good Housekeeping “Good Buy Award,” the DaysAgo is the first digital day counter to answer the age-old question, “How many days ago did I open this?” The gadget has a digital screen that starts counting with just the touch of a button. By counting up days, the DaysAgo can help determine when food has been opened and needs to be used, or can track days between household chores -- from taking care of plants to giving family members their medications.
Kathleen Whitehurst, CEO and co-founder of double u products, originally designed the DaysAgo to help busy moms keep the food in refrigerators safe for their families. Now the DaysAgo has become a lifestyle product for which consumers themselves are always finding new uses.
The DaysAgo is available with a magnet to adhere to metal objects; a suction cup for those items that are not metal or are oddly shaped; or with two different sizes of elastic bands. The large band can wrap around bigger items, such as a bag of coffee beans or a carton or bottle of milk, which often needs to be consumed in seven to 10 days of being opened. The small band fits perfectly around such items as baby bottles, juice boxes, bottles of olive oil or wine, and medication.
In addition to offering families this unique household gadget, Kathleen also offers a special Pink edition of the counter. A 10-year breast cancer survivor, Kathleen is committed to supporting breast cancer awareness – and to encouraging women of all ages to get into the habit of doing regular self breast exams. The Pink DaysAgo comes with a suction cup so that women can put it on their vanity or bathroom mirrors and keep track of when it is time for their monthly self exams.
Kathleen has partnered with Breast Cancer Network of Strength as part of her effort to promote early detection and self breast exams. Her company will be donating 10 percent of all sales from the Pink DaysAgo to provide emotional support to all those touched by breast cancer.
