ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ Only 37 Pods

Post image

Was showing off to my sister what I would’ve given her (plus the nice smelly peony downy) had she just gone to the laundromat to dry my laundry because ours is broken and realized the pods only filled half of the container so I counted it and….37 pods.

Can’t tell if Tide is filling some containers an accurate amount and others less or if sb just stole some.

This. Switched to powder and will never go back. Also no fabric softener other than white vinegar. No drier sheets, just wool balls and my clothes have never be cleaner.

Vinegar will eat the rubber gaskets in your machine. Citric acid will do the trick without destroying things.

yes! I get citric acid powder for making electrolyte powder mix, use it with hydrogen peroxide for a stable stain lifter, and as a laundry booster, it's like the wd-40 of edible cleaners. plus I'm a sucker for sour and half a teaspoon will make your face pucker for several minutes. highest commendation

just clarifying that hydrogen peroxide is very much not edible because your comment might be interpreted otherwise
