The other day I ran out of ultra bleach and I noticed in the laundry room, I had a full bottle of store brand bleach and I thought great I don't have to go to the store. So I did a load of whites, put in soap powders and some bleach.
When the washer stopped I put clothes in the dryer. Later, I noticed when I was folding the clothes they didn't seem that white. I thought,
maybe I didn't put that much bleach in or it didn't work well because it was a store brand.Anyhow, today Hubby was helping me clean out the closet which was long overdue. I had some white things that had turned kinda yellow from being stacked behind the closet. I thought I'd wash them with some bleach. Remembering the last time I used this bleach I was sure to put some extra bleach in to make sure the laundry would be white. Once again I noticed the laundry wasn't as white as it should have been.I told my hubby that this store brand of bleach is lousy. I couldn't get anything white, and in fact, the laundry has no bleach smell at all. He told me, "honey, I think that's an empty bottle I put water in".
I said: "Your kidding. LOL. I'm glad you told me cause I was going to take that bottle of bleach back to the store and tell them it didn't get my clothes white and the laundry didn't even smell like bleach".Boy, am I glad he told me.
