    Default Dryer Balls

    Anybody else discover these hidden little gems yet?



    source: http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/prod...1&SKU=13936579

    We got a gift card from Bed, Bath, & Beyond. The only way I would tag along with my wife was her dangling the carrot of a heated, padded toilet seat on a stick over me. I carried that sumbich around for a half hour before I discovered dryer balls. I think she was afraid of this scenario with the Seat of Xanadu:



    Dryer balls are great. They make flannel shirts, bath towels and sweaters nicer. They make my wife's delicates brand spanking new. This might be the greatest invention since red, long-legged underwear with the escape hatch in the back.

    Hatch's Second Highest Recommendation!

    "Dryer Balls" I guess in theory work...

    I think the best way to go if you're gonna talk laundry is a front load washer @ 3.7 cu/ft or so and a dryer with a 7.0 cu/ft capacity. They use up to 67% less water, easier on the clothes because there's no agitator, spin out quicker so the drying time is roughly equal to the wash time, and larger capacity so you can wash comforters, large blankets, etc... If a family is doing 8 to 10 loads a week, they will save between $100 and $125 a year in water and energy savings. Also, most areas have Energy Star rebates as well as certain areas that are on sewer have rebates as well... Plus, they are better on the environment!

    Personal recommendation:

    GE Frontload Laundry Pair


    I sell appliances for a living so I know a thing or two about this stuff...

    Nothing like drier balls...they always feel better than damp ones...
    "20 minutes (late to work)? Shit. Last year I woke up three weeks too late.
    My advice is to go for the alien abduction story. Look bemused, dishevelled and on the verge of tears as you recount your story of intrusive and degrading medical tests.
    Worked for me anyway. I still have colleagues asking me what it is like to fuck a green womanoid with seventeen breasts.
    Alternatively just walk in and inform everyone that alcoholism is indeed a disease and that they should be less judgemental and perhaps a little more supportive."
