<p>Yes, ditto on the saline for the contacts. My DH now buys it online from Allergan. By the case. </p>
<p>All is totally in my grocery store and BJs.</p>

<p>For you ALL & Wisk lovers, if you have a Dollar General nearby, both of those products are in this week’s sale flyer!</p>
<p>I bought Wisk at KMart today.</p>
<p>I just saw Wisk in my local Albertsons.</p>
<p>Wisk was at BJ’s wholesale last night</p>
<p>I have Wisk in my laundry room right now. It’s all I use (Wisk HE for a front-loading machine). No problem getting it here in Massachusetts.</p>
<p>I saw Wisk yesterday at Kings in Northern NJ.</p>
<p>I’ve checked locally and it seems to have gone from the shelves - not at Safeway, Costco, Target, or Save Mart… Guess I will have to import it :)</p>
<p>I too have noticed the great reduction in number of brands available. The pickings are even slimmer since I buy only the “free/clear/no perfume”. It’s pretty much reduced to Tide or All in our area. All was fine for the general family clothes, and much cheaper than Tide. </p>
<p>Then,…I had a kid who decided to be a mechanic. Tide is much better for his clothes, although even that, with ammonia also added, doesn’t competely cut the grease. I made him sign up for uniform service at work, to save my sanity and the life of my beloved Maytag. He thinks it’s great and wants to sign up all his clothes once he moves out $10/wk–throw your dirties in a trash bag, give them to the man on Wednesdays, and get fresh, clean clothes handed to you on hangers.</p>
<p>My sister bought detergent in Santa Barbara in a blue box I’d never seen before. It left my clothes smelling fresh like nothing else. The box got thrown out and neither of us remembers the name and can’t seem to find it in NY. Anyone have any idea what it could be?</p>
<p>Anyone remember Fab? I loved it! It just disappeared. And so then I began using Tide…original scent. Now that’s gone too. Maybe it’s with Fab.</p>
<p>Wisk, All, Sun and Era detergents are all sold at our store. Wisk use to be the flagship detergent brand for Lever but now it is priced the same as All. I guess they must be about the same now but Wisk was once far better at cleaning then All. Sun is a bargain detergent that cleans pretty well and Era brings up the rear. I have seen all these brands at one store or the other so they still are out there.</p>
<p>our local grocery carries these products as well as TIDE.

They work pretty well- especially Bac-Out.</p>
<p>Our local store (Harris Teeters) just had a huge sale on Wisk. It is still here in VA.</p>
<p>My siblings and I live in 3 different states. We all have products that the others can’t get. It all comes down to consumer demand.</p>
<p>My sister in OH lives on TAB soda…my brother and I have never seen it in our stores.</p>
<p>My brother buys Twinkies. They are sold in my store too, but not at my sisters.</p>
<p>Bullet loves Pepsi Diet Wild Cherry soda, but it is now becoming a search and rescue mission to find it, whereas, my siblings have it in every store.</p>
<p>My Mom and I laugh because when she comes to visit me from NJ she brings me liquid starch (only have spray starch here). I send her back with Fresh Express salad bags.</p>
<p>In VA we got the Finish Quantum automatic dish detergent 6-9 months ago, she has yet to see it in her stores. Obviously it is a hit here because now they are also selling the replacement cartridges. Stinks for me because now I have to mail the replacement cartridges to her since she is hooked on it like me.</p>
<p>This is also true for other things. In NC people live in Rainbows and Crocs. In VA, I am basically forced to buy them over the net, and people think my kids are insane for wearing $40 flip flops (Rainbows~~~~ look them up and buy a pr you will never buy another brand after buying them). I bought my Mom her 1st pr of Crocs 5 yrs ago, and when her friends tried them on, they fell in love with them, but were forced to buy on line since they weren’t sold in NJ.</p>
<p>It is all about the demographic market demand.</p>
<p>I use the free and clear Kirkland’s laundry soap, I swear it’s Tide. Also very economical.</p>
<p>^^^</p>
<p>I also think that the Costco Kirkland detergent is really Tide.</p>
<p>*My sister bought detergent in Santa Barbara in a blue box I’d never seen before. It left my clothes smelling fresh like nothing else. The box got thrown out and neither of us remembers the name and can’t seem to find it in NY. Anyone have any idea what it could be? *</p>
<p>Hmom…does your sister have any idea of where she bought that detergent in Santa Barbara? maybe she can ask the store if they remember the product.</p>
<p>I wonder if it was Cheer?</p>
<p>^^^</p>
<p>Was the detergent something that came with her HE washer? Sears detergent also has a blue box.</p>
<p>Cheer, Wisk, and All use blue boxes. However, companies change their boxes’ “look” all the time (and their fragrances) so you might not find the same exact product. How long ago was this?</p>

<p>LOVELOVELOVE Rainbows, most of my friends own at least one pair. The coolest part is that if they break for any reason before you wear down to the sole, you just send 'em on in and they send you back a free pair! :)</p>
<p>bulletandpima–if you ever need a pair, Long Beach is only a couple hours’ drive from the Rainbows outlet where they’re a little cheaper. I could pick up a pair on vacation from school and ship 'em to ya!</p>
<p>
All well and good IF they fit your feet. I don’t consider myself to have weird/hard-to-fit feet, but Rainbows just don’t fit me well. D & S, OTOH, love them. And they wear really well.</p>
<p>D & S also love the Rainbows. I’ll stick with my Bierkenstocks. </p>
<p>bulletandpima- we are also in VA. Our local stores sell TAB (exorbitantly priced) but I’ve never heard of the dishwasher detergent. We definitely have the Twinkies (I guess you can eat those with your TAB) - in fact saw the most hideous variety with a “Shrek” theme- you guessed it- acid green cream filling. Not a Twinkie buyer to begin with and sure wasn’t going to start once I saw those. </p>
<p>Can find every kind of Tide easily except for the original scent. Shampoo always seems to be changing- spent hours in town looking for Pantene “Ice Shine” for D- no luck- so when she returned to campus- she found it on sale at Harris Teeter. </p>
<p>Sorry, definite hijack there! But we also have Wisk.</p>
