Everyday scam
The other day at Dollar Tree I noticed that the wool detergent bottle had the same shape as the regular detergent. When I turned them around and read the ingredients, they were identical! In other words, there is no difference between these two detergents except packaging.
I wonder how many other product scams like this are perpetrated on us every day.

I wonder if the ingredient amounts differed ??
The ingredients were in the exact same order, so there couldn’t be too much difference. I haven’t checked Woolite, though. This was a weird brand I have only seen at Dollar Tree.
Yes! This is an observation I have often made.
In Texas nearly all bread comes from Bimbo-owned bakeries. It used to be Mrs. Baird until they were bought out a few years ago.
I read and commented all of your recent posts in That Other Place…but it’s so nice you are sharing them here!
I love reading what you have to share!
HUGS!!!
I discovered that I hadn’t been over here in about a month. It’s blocked at one of my jobsites, and I never have time to post when I’m at home.
I even think these products are produced at the same place.
I’m pretty sure they were, but I can’t recall if they were the same brand.
Yep – I have to deal with the MSDS (or the SDS as they are now called) and it is amazing. Bleach is bleach and chlorox is bleach and it all comes from the same place!
probably a bunch
