Melton Times - Count On These



Melton Times has just done a fab feature in their Taste supplement (21 May 2009) all about Count On It labels and their future in the States. Here's what they said...
A Businesswoman who used her experience as a mum as a springboard to success is going from strength to strength. Lyndsey Young, who was nominated for a Melton Times Green Business Award in 2008, came up with an invention call Count On It - fridge and freezer-friendly stickers with dates that scratch off.
It was recently taken up by Lakeland and ITV's Amanda Holden has put her name to the product.
Lyndsey said "Once you've opened a jar or packet .... this is way to remember when it was opened and help cut down on waste."
And now Lyndsey hopes to break into the American market using Amanda's newfound fame State-side. Amanda, a judge on 'Britain's Got Talent' who will soon also be presenting 'The Early Show' in the USA, juggles a hectic lifestyle caring for her two-year old daughter Alexa.
She said: "These labels are fantastic - I put them on everything from pasta sauce to Alexa's leftovers. I love giving Alexa fresh, wholesome food, but because of my busy lifestyle, I need to keep track of when I opened stuff. These labels do the job for me".
Count On It labels are available from Lakeland shops or online at www.lakeland.co.uk or www.count-on-it.co.uk.
