I just don't like laundries.

I just do not. There's just something about spending an inordinate amount of money to do laundry. It costs me four dollars to do a single load, and that includes drying time. Yeah, it may not be much, but it's still a gallon of gas. So I decided to go looking for a low cost alternative. A compact washer I could use at home.

Wonder Wash is a low cost solution, running around 50 bucks. It's hand cranked, uses no electricity, and works will a bit of water. Granted, it has only a five pound capacity, but still... it's enough for me.

Why am I telling you about it? Cuz there may, just may, be some folks out there that go camping or go to Ren Faires and would like to wash their clothes without having to run to find a laundry or borrow a friends laundry. There may be things that need to be washed NOW, rather than later.

So.. there it is. My public service announcement. Oh, and it looks like it's the Wenches tonight, for those who might wonder.

Did you just call me Sugar-pie? And you were worried about and planned for Y2K? Amazing the things I learn as I get older.

Thank you, sis of mine. I love you ever so.

The rinsing, as I understand it from webpage and discussions from those that have used it, isn't so hard or isn't if the thing works as advertised. You just run it through again, without soap. Course, if that's not exactly true, then no big deal. I've been doing laundry in the tub for years now, and rinsing is just a part of it.

Love you, most wonderful and goofy sis of mine!

I had the BEST time planning for Y2K! I'm a planner and a "depression era" thinker, so it was the best of all worlds to me. *LOL* You should have seen all my preparations. I won't say i was disappointed when nothing happened, tho. Even so, yes, as you can see, there are still things here from my preparations and people like YOU benefit! WIN!!

I love YOU, most wonderful brother!! I sent it off this morning! YAYAYAYAYYYY!!!!!!!!

Of course it's allowed, Sis! It just takes extra thought to add the hypen, so it surprised me.
