I like the looks of those washers. Wascomat has always made good laundry equipment. But I'm curious..do these operate with just a tablespoon of water like the others coming out nowadays or is the water level significant?
Also, how are they on cleaning?

We have a set of those Wascomats at our local coin op. While they don't give you the water half way up the door like the older models do, they do use a respectable amount of water. Much more than a home FL washer would. Plus the washer offers the user options like Extra Rinse, Heavy Duty Wash, Warm Rinse, etc. But you have to pay 0.25 extra for each of those options.
Jon:ATOMIC FIRE BALLS!!!!!Used to buy those at the movie theater-you could buy a small bag of them-great to suck on and eat during the movies!!!At this point can't remember what they cost-also I would get and eat Necco wafers,Smarties,Sweet Tarts,and Wintergreen Life Savers.Can't find ANY of these at a theater concession counter now!HATE those gummy bear things!

I just got a bag of Fire Stix individuals. Despite being glommed by Hershey who ruins almost everything they touch, these still taste like the originals.
From the betcha-dint-know file, betcha dint know that NECCO stands for New England Candy Company. Another of only a handful of legacy candies that are still as they always were. If only PEZ was.
PEZ is a shortening of the word peppermint in Austrian. Originated as a smoking alternative/cessant. That's why the dispenser is shaped like a butane lighter. I know more about PEZ, I spoke with their US agent on the phone for about 20 minutes in the early 00s. No, the flavors I/we liked in the 50s are not coming back.
Industrial Wascomat at this hotel where I worked, much the same as my 1998 Frigilux FL. Water doesn't climb the door/window but it's plenty adequate. Perception depends on what percentage of the drum diameter is represented by the window. For fashion/marketing purposes, home FLs today have an exaggerated window. But yes, for government/compliance purposes they also tend toward insufficient fills.
Wait. What were we supposed to be talking aboot?

nothing to be had here, but...
Food- or drinkwise you cannot get anything here under 1.50 (rural) or 2.50 (smaller cities) or let's say 3.50 (major cities).
Yet, here is my list:
1. A 5-litres canister of chlorine bleach, no-name brand from France (€ 1.15)
2. Some "Summer Freshness" no-name fabric softener (500 ml) from Penny Market Germany (lasts up to 40 loads).
3. Baking some sausages or fish for friends in my 1970s retro-style convection oven (€ 0.21 electric bill)
4. Shouting "WOOF" at some biker and getting back that "2nd-thought smirk" (example pic here, not posting about real persons involved) - € 0.00 = priceless.
For anything else there is MasterCard (which I don't have, LOL)

Reese's Cups.
Went to Dollar Tree yesterday and took home a nice haul. Roast Pork steamed buns, Spic & Span disinfecting cleaner, Ajax cleanser (28oz), yellow cake mix, big bag of rice crackers, big bag of Oyster crackers, flour tortillas, frozen eclairs, frozen cream puffs, pork rinds (skin attached), and a bunch more odds and ends. Everything was a dollar each. So I left quite happy.
Dollar Tree stores-guess the modern day equivelant of the old 5&dime stores.
Louie--- What are roast pork steamed buns?
What are roast pork steamed buns?
Louie correct me if I'm wrong, but I suspect it may be something like these steamed buns you'll find in a Chinese / Dim Sum restaurant.
Top photo: Left is Cha Siu Bao (BBQ pork bun) and right may be chicken or pork.
Bottom photo: Steamed "Bao"(bun) with ground pork, onion, shitake mushroom, shallot, soy sauce, sesame oil, white pepper and cooking wine (I found the recipe).

Memories
Way way back in 1973, I was near Athens with my parents on holiday, I met some US kids who parents were in the US airforce, so we used to go on the airforce base and mess around and enjoy stuff there.
I ordered a roast beef sandwich (bear in mind I am from England and had never been exposed to US portions) a huge oval plate arrived with a pile of mash potato and a huge pile of sliced beef with gravy and about 2 thirds of a loaf of bread! all for 90cents, to me this was the biggest and best value "snack" I had ever had.

the only thing you can get for a UK pound these days is a Burgerking/Macdonalds kids burger

Kevin is right Eugene
You got it Kevin! Just had them for lunch. The pork was a bit more sweet than savory, but they were remarkably similar to the ones you'd get in a restaurant. And a buck each! So I was happy!

Yes this took awhile to answer,,
when I come to this site I really dont want
to argue over trivial matters and its slightly disrespectful to continue when you can email each other on (homelessness) .
Since I volenter at a beautiful AIDS association I really know what homeless is and see people with the illness and keep going on with little money
is double problems but they project happiness and love anyway.
I myself will give a doller or bye food for someone in need ,,IF I THINK ITS A VALID SITUATION PERIOD.
You no it when you see it or feel it.
They are humen ! there just lost or mentally challenged .
And you will know a scammer its that simple im a city boy you learn fast.

Tide basics various bleaches as you can see.
It takes 2 Purex Pods that I put in my dark wash simming Purex really dont have much wash and stain power it worked great when I put them in the drum.
But I found some old RINSO in this store
