Have you been had by this new trick packaging of Gain? I don't believe it's really 2X concentrated because I did some towels and they came out
smelling anything but fresh. I had to re-wash them using two capfuls of this stupid Gain that is really 2X THE PRICE!!

I agree with you goner - that new Gain sucks!
You have to use twice as much as the old 1X to get your clothes clean. |

Sunlight is doing the same thing. Same sized bottle, twice the price. CONSPIRACY |

Concentrated Tide works well in our front loading washing machine.

I love the concentrated Tide, Pahrump. Smells so good!
I used to like Gain until I got tired of the smell. |

I assumed the new 2X Gain was bullshit, so the first time I used it, I poured in as much as I did with regular Gain. What followed was like a scene from a
sitcom (or a foam party, whichever you prefer), except it's not hilarious (or sexy) when it actually happens to you at home and you have to clean it up.
That shit was all over the floor. Now I am using like a tablespoon of that stuff.

Better get used to the 2x bullshit.
Recently Wal Mart and Target both issued a statement that they are eliminating non-concentrated laundry detergents because smaller packaging is better for Mother Earth. It also saves them shelf space. I am not sure if this has taken effect across the nation yet, but if it has not come to pass in your area, you will find that when the switch is made you'll get the last of the non-concentrated "good stuff" on clearance for rock-bottom prices. I got a shitload of... I don't know. I did a lot of wash, ran out, and now have the concentrate. It works fine. I always smell good. Unless you get really close to me. |

If Walmart, Target, etc., were all that concerned about the environment, they would be pushing cloth diapers. But you don't get much repeat business on
cloth diapers so the shelf space for disposables will remain.
