Phil: >I tried Surf when it first came out - and forgot the years - but loved it! Then it seems, the formula changed...? I was GLAD when they changed the scent of Surf. When it first came out, it seemed like everyone was trying this new fangled detergent. It washed OK, but the scent was too...

Dish soap, bath soap, shower gels, under and swim wear.

Even on "Golden Girls" Oh, that Sophia.

THANK YOU ALL! I've wanted to address this topic more than once when my "unmentionables" weren't coming out really clean, but didn't know how to do it subtly. Generally, I use either Spray and Wash or some other sort of stain remover on what needs to be treated before I venture to the...

I like the Tide logo I saw on their packages. I wonder if it will be used on the US products anytime soon?

Oxydol Commercial Made in 1957. I wish I could find one of the Oxydol commercials Marion Lorne (Aunt Clara from "Bewitched") made in the mid-60's

Has anyone else seen this? It's kind of long, but also very interesting. My apologies if it's been posted before (but I don't think it has).

Laundress: Yes Ma'am. That would be it. I bought a bottle of the regular Wisk a few weeks ago and will be doing laundry tomorrow. Let's see how it does.

I was reading a story just yesterday on Yahoo on how Wisk's version of their "Free and Clear" did a comparable if not better job than Tide Vivid. I tried to find a link to it but wasn't able to. Did anyone else read it?

Some of those cars brought tears to my eyes. I'd certainly like to cash in on either one of the '63 Impalas, the '64 or the '56 model. I know it's not nice to pray for money, but maybe "God" (or whatever the spiritual entity is) will give me a break and let me win a few million in one of the...

Does anyone remember this story from when you were little? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_and_the_Firefly

Salvo Ad It looks like they substituted fabric softener (perhaps Downy) in the jug instead of going with regular bleach.

I usually see some around this time here in Springfield, but none so far this year. I might have to venture out later this evening and see if there's any around in other areas besides where I live.

Is that a dishwasher underneath the canisters?

I was talking to a friend of mine who lives in El Paso the other day. How the subject got diverted to washing machines, I don't know (he has a front loader but didn't tell me what brand). Apparently, with his daily walks, his clothes get a somewhat grungy odor to them. I asked him what...

"I wasn't overly impressed with it." I'm sure when it was popular, others probably felt the same way you did, and that's why it didn't stay in the running with the other top sellers during that time period. Angus, it's so cool that someone else also knew about Fluffy All. My mom used it on...

"Duck" Toilet Bowl Cleaner? What was the original brand name for that product? Also, is Tidy Bowl still being made?

Hans, It was called Freewax, and we used it somewhat religously on the den floor in our house in El Paso. I remember on a trip to KC in the 70's, my dad was looking for it to tell my aunt how it got rid of and killed bugs (very good on roaches), but no such luck in finding it. I also miss...

You really cleaned up with all that stuff. It pays when people who want to move or (unfortunately) die and turn out to be hoarders. You can get brand new (or seldom used) items for next to nothing like you did.

We had Climatron heating/cooling in our '66 Chevy wagon. My dad hardly ever had to turn the knob to make it hotter or colder. It stayed at 70 and it stayed comfortable when it was used. With my '02 Cavalier, that sucker gets COLD, and I don't even have to have the temperature knob all the...
