Frugal Friday

Posted in Reviews, and Thrifty Ideas

While looking for a safer laundry cleaner, I came across laundry dropps. Well, you can now try out Dropps for free. Click on the image for more information about Dropps.

I was looking for a better (and cheaper) alternative to dryer sheets. I’ve seen commercials for these dryer balls. When I saw the $3 off coupon in the Walgreens easy saver catalog, I decided to try them out as they would only be $6.99. They have a 2 year money back guarantee. Well, they work really well. I haven’t had any problems with static and the drying time has decreased. So far, I’ve test them on clothes, towels, and sheets with no problems.

    Do you know if the laundry drops are okay to use on the new military uniforms?

    I’m assuming you’re talking about the wash and wear uniforms? (Marines started wearing them 6 years ago, so I guess I don’t see them as new anymore. lol!)

    Since dropps have no color boosters or bleach, they should be perfectly safe. In fact, since it doesn’t have enzimes, it should actually be better for them.

    Saw this video today and it really touched my heart. Since I knew your dh was ‘out’ I thought I would share.
    Listen to this song… A Song Written in
    Iraq… IF THIS ISN’T A HUGE HIT, SOMETHING’S DEFINITELY WRONG!! This
    soldier video is new and different. It is moving and heartwarming.
    Enjoy
    and pass it on! The singer needs a recording contract when he comes
    home!
    American Idol should contact him and he shouldn’t have to wait in
    line.
    Click on the underlined words: If I Die Before You Wake just to the
    upper
    left of the video viewing area.

    I’ve heard this song before and love it. There are several different versions of the “video” out there. They each have their own unique twist.

    Thank you for thinking of us. 🙂

    I would have never imagined that those dryer balls would actually work! I think mine would turn into toys if I wasn’t careful.

    Anyhow, Hi! I am just about visiting the blogs of people who entered my contest. Thanks for entering and I hope you feel free to visit anytime!

    It was interesting to learn that you like to eat peanut butter by the spoonful.

    Yes, the dryer balls seem to work for me too. It really does cut down the drying time! I was very surprised.

    The dryer balls don’t seem to work very well for me. Although, that could be the dry staticy air here in AZ too…

    I’ve been here before I think.. nice to see other Christian, Marine wives blogging!

    God bless,
