It is recommended that you don't use dryer sheets with towels. The sheets will make the towels less absorbent.
Dryer sheets kill that annoying static cling as well as make your clothes smell better.
I buy mine at Sam's and they come in a two pack with hundreds of sheets. -

2020-11-17 at 4:51 PM UTCI'm good at only buying what I absolutely need so I don't really compromise much at all. I'll buy generic OTC meds because there is literally no difference in quality compared to branded stuff. The same with household cleaning products, bleach is bleach, I'm not going to pay £3-4 for something I can get for 80p.
Clothes, furniture, electronics and any big purchases I tend to research for several days before I buy to aim for the best balance of price and quality. -

You don't know that. More likely they purchase rejected foods because of taste sampling afterwards were it was very little in notice to the average consumer but the tasters in QC are really tuned to a specific taste.
I know this because I used to work at safeway and beta beta and luckys and one time I worked at Pay n Pack. A "bag it yourself" food store where shit was cheap because they purchased knockoff brands for their customers which came from Kelloggs and other known brand names thwy put their own brand on. it's just rejected surplus from Kelloggs in which the color or flavoring was off. then they stick it in these giant popcorn like bags that hold an average of 10 normal box size of cereal. then they go flat and then the customers come back and say "Their cereal is stale. it's because they open the bag and don't place them in air tight bins and suggested on the fucking packaging in tiny ass letterings.
tl;hella dr?
I'm not buying rejected mayo sold by craft to the welfare department of Canada because it has eggs in it. -

I refuse to buy my meats, produce, or cheeses at Walmart, I go to Kroger for those things. I bought steaks there, and they were a pinkish color when fully cooked. They’re produce goes bad fast. Kroger brand cheese is good stuff.
I used to buy cheapo laundry detergent till my son had an allergic reaction to it. He was a little kid covered in hives, I felt so bad. Tide it is.🤷♀️

Originally posted by Technologist Now big ticket items for my home, quality it is. My heat pump I replaced 5 yrs ago is a Trane. My new roof is Owens Corning shingles, lifetime warranty. I don’t want to replace those items frequently.
lol the old lifetime warranty trick/scam. The "lifetime warranty" length of time is defined by the company just so you're aware -

Put this in your pipe and smoke it:
"Owens Corning is a global company that develops and produces insulation, roofing, and fiberglass composites. It was formed in 1935 as a partnership between two major American glassworks, Corning Glass Works and Owens-Illinois. The company employs approximately 19,000 people around the world. Oct 24 2019
Founded: Toledo, Ohio (1938)
Headquarters: Toledo, Ohio
Number of employees: 17,000 (2017)
Revenue: US$06.4 billion (2017)"
Sounds like a pretty stable company insofar as they've been in business for 85 years, has 17,000 employees and $6.4 BILLION in sales. -

Reason you're retarded #383: cigreting didnt say anything about them not being a 'stable company.' -
2020-11-17 at 8:01 PM UTCHe said the warranty is defined by the company. I interpret that to mean "the warranty is only as good as the company behind it." Obviously, the company can be expected to honor their warranty just like they have for the last 85 years.
If you have a differing explanation, please...share it with the class.
