Friends Don't Let Friends....

...use Walmart's Great Value brand of Color Safe Bleach for front loading washers.  This stuff is goopy and so thick, it clogs up my machine.  It's half the price of Clorox 2, but doesn't work as well.  Not worth it--buy the good stuff.


...buy cheap jelly beans at the Dollar Tree--at least the "gourmet" kind. (I'm talking the nameless brand--not the Jelly Belly rejects.)  I consider myself a connoisseur of jelly beans and these are nasty with a capital N!  Not only do they taste bad, their texture is disgusting.  I did not come to this conclusion hastily--it took me half a bag to be certain!


...leave a blog without commenting!  Yes, this means you!

Ouch, life's lessons don't come easily do they?

I know what you mean about people stopping by but not commenting. Everyone needs a little feedback, it only takes a minute or two.

Uh-Oh, now I am craving Jelly Beans.

it is so true about the jelly beans...gotta have the real jelly belly's! i once bought a sam's club size gourmet container b/c they were on clearance very cheap. they were not good at all and it explained why they were on clearance!

I totally agree in the jelly beans. I am needing to get my Robin Eggs, Cadbury Cream Eggs and prpare to make the edible Easter baskets.

Jelly beans--TRUE!

Great Value color-safe bleech: I am a FAN. However, it IS really gooey, and very thick! SO....just keep the last bottle you had of it, and 1/2 the new one....mix with 1/4 water. That's what I do, and it works just fine.

How's that for MY tip of the day?

And yes...I finally commented! ha ha :-P

I love you Mom. I miss your wit and Erika keeps complaining to me about how you have slacked on your posting.

Thanks for the tips! I still need to try out those girl scout cookies at the Dollar Tree!

Hi Beverly, Long time since my last visit- it's been a little crazy around my house since Jan. Love your tips for friends... My favorite jelly beans are the Starburst brand that you can really only get around Easter- and I really like the tropical flavor the best! No cheapie store brands for me... Hope all is well on your end. I'll try to get back again soon.
:-) Sue
