    Tupperware files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy

    We use the plastic bags from Walmart and such for waste baskets. My compactor only gets dry trash, anything wet , bloody, or smelly goes straight to the curb. I got rid of most of my plastic storage containers in favor of Pyrex. Still keep a couple of larger ones for pizza leftovers or cookies...

    ProjectFarm Stain Remover test

    I like him but I usually fast forward thru it to the results. I'm that guy who reads the last page of a novel first😏

    Have you ever had an allergy to any laundry detergent?

    Gain used to make me itch about thirty-five years ago, mostly around my waist and torso, but that was back with Mom's GE filter flo washer. I've used it in recent years without incident but my fl washers rinse much better with multiple rinse.

    Laundry Appliance Servicemen Of Old - Was It Ever A Good Living?

    I would do it if i could make a decent living at it these days but it's all disposable now. It would have to pay VERY well to compare to my nursing salary though...

    FAIL! Plastic in the oven...

    That should be simple to get off. My hubby put a thick plastic cutting board in our oven thinking it was a cookie sheet with Pillsbury cookie dough on it and went to sleep in a Xanax stupor! He awoke when the smoke alarm started screaming. I took lineman's pliers and twisted every drip that was...

    Canning bolognese in an oven

    Even when I used to can tomatoes we added a little lemon juice to them to increase the acidity and I always pressure canned (just sold my all American pressure canner).

    MT DC stacker and a Samsung...

    I have one, it was my mother's for 30 years until a screw pin in the trans shaft broke. She just replaced with a new WP unit and I took the stack to see what happened. Turned out to be an easy fix and now works just like new. Mine is gas. What john said about blower fans in the dryer is so true...

    Mexican Powder Detergents

    I love Ariel, it smells so good ..but it doesn't do well in the Miele with softened water!

    Making the switch

    Hospital Laundry Sanitizer

    The brown bottle of Lysol...but everything will smell like a doctor's office afterwards! Personally with my colored hospital scrubs when I've been around patients with bad isolation worthy germs I just pour some ocean scent Lysol in my Miele dispenser. Never had a problem. Of course, if things...

    99% of the time I use the chlorine based powder so I'm not too concerned.

    Orbital Maytag combined with a filter flo?

    I've been thinking...(and that can be scary)...about how to put a recirculation filter in a Maytag washer. I could come off the bleach dispenser connection port and hook to a pump wired to run when agitating. But the filter pan itself is where I'm stumped. Where and how to place it along with...

    8 Reasons Using Liquid Detergent Is Better

    Makes me wonder. My mother uses liquid all the time. I was cleaning her Maytag stacked unit and under the agitator was a bunch of yuck. She never washes in cold and didn't go wild with fabric softener. As far as cleaning ability, I have done my own experiments and liquids eventually make white...

    What's everyone using for laundry detergent these days?

    I washed some old quilts in clean breeze tide and downy about 13 years ago and out them in storage. I dig some of them out recently and can still smell the freshness.

    What's everyone using for laundry detergent these days?

    I just used the Ariel multi in mother's Maytag hooked up to unsoftened water outside in my shop and it sure smells good. Not too sudsy...I'd say just right. Now for a Miele trial...

    What's everyone using for laundry detergent these days?

    I just got a box of the Ariel multi but haven't used it yet. Will probably use it to wash cat beds soon. We are finishing up a large pack of tide pods but are planning to switch to the tide free and clear pods next. Still tide powder for the whites.

    Speed Queen - Coming Soon...

    When I go to the washateria to clean my large area rugs I walk around to see how people are using the SQ front loaders there. It really makes me want to do a PSA right there to tell them how much money they are losing by having the washers only 1/4 full. It isn't rocket science. And most of the...
