Can You Spot the Difference?

Tuesday, March 8, 2011

You may think that these 2 bottles of ordinary laundry detergent are the same.  Look again. 
They're not.  The bottle on the right has the picture of a washing machine with the letters "HE" on it.  That is the one I am supposed to buy.  Apparently, when I walk into Target or Harris Teeter I lose all memory of this fact.  I keep forgetting to look for the "HE" and buy the regular brand.

What?  There's no difference you say?  The last time I bought the regular detergent it took my washing machine 3 hours to wash a load of towels.  The bubbles just kept on coming!  I felt like I was on an episode of LaVerne & Shirley. 

Thankfully, every time this happens, my mom is nice enough to buy an HE bottle for me and then we just switch.   She's a good mom.

    Lol, I can picture the bubbles! Those little HE symbols are very small...I think they should have separate sections for HE & regular...good thing your mom can use it!
    Also, very pretty picture of the detergent on your table!

    If you have a front loading washer you'd better not make that mistake again. Too many bubbles can make the door pop open! (It happened to me.)
