Heres the ultimate question, Snuggle or Downey?

The other way around

If you're using two rinses you can even do better by putting the vinegar in the first rinse and the FS in the second. The vinegar helps to get rid of the suds (the alkalinity) and the sooner it is added, the better it works. And the fabric softener should be added to the very last rinse to get the best effect of it.

I use the house brand, and I use very little. I want my clothes a little softer with perhaps a hint of fragrance, not slimy and overpowering. How much you need depends a lot of your water. And of course, none in the towels!

Lavender Fabric Softener

"Now a little Lavender Sachet is another story........HA!"

I could only get Lavender Sachet back when I was visiting family in NY (Rochester). I would bring four bottles back a couple times a year on my carry on. Thank goodness my bag was never searched they would have thought I had a screw loose. I now use Downy Simple Pleasures Vanilla and Lavender and do not have to smuggle the Laveneder Sachet back to Phoenix.

I miss Final Touch!

I'm currently using a softener called CloWhite Fluffy, which I bought on a trip to New York two or three years ago. I was on one of those theater day trips, and while everyone else scampered off to be trendy new clothes, I went to the (now gone) 99-cent store on 42nd St. and got softener. I have no complaints.

Lavender Sachet

I actually have a bottle of that right now. We have a store here called "Drug Emporium", and they carry many of the "almost vintage" items that are still made, but cannot be found in many grocery stores, Wal-Mart, etc. You could spend hours there checking out all of the cool stuff.

I also agree with you Jim about Final Touch. I miss the smell of the vintage Final Touch. Along with the 1980's Oxydol. They were AWESOME!
