*Be warned this is a totally RANDOM POST about the life of Tabitha Ramos !!*
Have you ever bought laundry detergent and on the box it says 60 loads, or something like that? I always wonder when manufacturers put things on packaging if they really mean you are getting "20% more free" Or if you seriously can get 60 loads out of a laundry detergent box. While shopping last year, I decided to actually put it to the test. Well since we buy in bulk, we buy the BIG boxes of laundry detergent, so therefore it would take a little longer to test my experiment then just getting a 60 loads box. I know you are all thinking I must be hard up for entertainment if I am counting and measuring my laundry soap, but it made laundry a little more fun and for me laundry is right up there with doing dishes. I HATE DOING DISHES AND LAUNDRY! But to make it fun I started my new box that was marked 180 loads. Every time I did laundry I measured the cup exactly to level 1, then I marked it on the box with a big mark. It kind of gave me great joy to be able to mark off 5 loads in a day! OK I know I am a little bit weird. but hey I get it from my mom! And those of you who know her would TOTALLY UNDERSTAND!=)=) I love my mom!But back to my laundry story.=) It took me about 8 months to get through my big box of laundry detergent but I finally did and I can say I was SO EXCITED to scrape out the last bit of soap into the measuring cup. Mark it off girl! So I did and then I got to count up all my marks and come to find out.... 180 loads! Yep after precise measuring and marking every load I learned the manufacturers actually were right (at least on this one). Glad I didn't have any major loads where I would have had to use more soap or it would have thrown off my counting for sure! hahaha OK I know "Tabitha must be losing her marbles if she is writing about 180 loads of laundry." It made laundry more fun and I actually conserved soap. Which up here is important. So try it! Measure your soap! You might get a kick out of it like I do!=)=) Stay tuned for my measuring shampoo!=) hahahhaa Have a Great Friday everyone!
