(WBBM NEWSRADIO) – Dating is general is hard, and now with a global pandemic it is even more difficult.
According to Pew Research, over 50 percent of young people are living at home with a parent, whether it’s due to travel restrictions, workplace flexibility, or simply the need to move back home; therefore, people are facing even more challenges to dating...remember what it was like in high school? Awkward...
So ORBIT gum is stepping in to help “babysit” your parents so you can date in peace without all the prying questions and wandering eyes.
The ORBIT Gum’s Parent Sitter Pack is a perfectly curated package of at-home activities to keep nosy parents out of your love life. It includes an online cooking class for parents who love to keep their hands (and stomachs) full, a plant delivery service for parents who need to take care of something other than their grown child, and a subscription to a TV streaming service, because parents also need to binge-watch and chill.
The ORBIT Parent Sitter Pack launches in part with the brand’s new Keep It Clean campaign, which seeks to clean up dirty dating habits and give daters the tools they need to successfully navigate the world of dating online.
“From eggplant emojis to late-night ‘U Up?’ texts, daters have enough to stress about when it comes to navigating the dirty world of dating,” said Sally Tran, senior brand manager, ORBIT Gum. “With so many young adults moving back home, it adds a whole new layer of difficulty to landing those seemingly elusive, clean dates. That’s why ORBIT is doing what we can to give our fans everything they need to navigate the twists and turns of dating in 2020.”
Starting Oct. 27 and continuing through Nov. 2, tweet @OrbitGum and tell Orbit why you need a parent sitter for your next date using #OrbitParentSitter and #Sweepstakes for a chance to win the ORBIT Parent Sitter Pack.
Orbit will then select 800 hopeful singles (or those in relationships) to receive a kit. The kit includes a $25 Hulu gift card, a $60 gift card for a Virtual Pasta Cooking Class with Nonna Nerina (approximately 2 hour group class), and $50 gift card for an indoor plant by Horti.
