Hello there friends! Just a little life blog today. I went out to chalk a message and I got one done with the chalk I had (I have more in the closet, I need to refill my bag).
I tried to enter the Litter Lotto too by picking these things out of the gutter, but it froze when I tried to submit my entry. 😭
Yesterday I went grocery shopping and was happy to see that Target had brought back powder laundry soap in cardboard boxes again, but they only had it in stinky perfumed types, and I need free and clear soap. I prefer to avoid the plastic, but allergies take precedent. I haven't even been able to find free and clear powder online for a couple of years!
I've been working on some projects to upcycle and keep my hands busy otherwise, post to come soon when they are done. :)
Hope y'all are well and having a wonderful day!!
Tell me about it, my robot vacuum always tries to run me over..
With marketing nowadays, the base product almost seems like the scarcity. I noticed it with all the alternatives there are in the supermarket to just plain water.

Yeah, they don't care about our needs being met or even our preferences, only getting everyone to buy the expensive shit that has a bigger profit margin. Pods for both laundry and dishwasher are everywhere, but not only is it plastic inside plastic, it's insanely marked up from just buying a powder or liquid.
Oh bit it's 🎶 convenient🎶
Can people not measure out a little soap?
I admit there are going to be exceptions, of course - various disabilities where people struggle with hand dexterity or lifting even a few pounds, or as my mom mentioned, when someone in the house has dementia (my dad) and he would use WAY too much soap otherwise. But the companies push them to everyone because it's less product for more money.
You mention a very important factor in all of this. Convenience. A lot of people would rather pay 3 times as much for vegetables that are pre-cut than cutting it themselve. I know marketing and advertising play a role, and that there are exceptions to the rule, but the majority of people are still (subconsciously) giving power to these companies where it isn't necessary.
Oh
You’ve got a particular soap you use
Right?
I switch between brands as long as it is "free and clear" - meaning, there are no perfumes or dyes in it, because the perfumes can set off my allergies.
I have some criteria to choose a soap or washing powders. Alhamdulillah, as I am not allergic to dye or perfume, those criteria aren't included!
I hope that you got the one that suits you!
