Bounce Dryer Bar- Revisited

So I put the new Bounce Dryer Bar in the other night even though there was a little bit left on the old one. It wasn't softening the laundry anymore and you could see the whole word "replace" on it. I did 3 loads of laundry last night and the first was jeans and of course it left white marks all over them again. Then I figured it out...turn jeans and dark shirts inside out for the first few loads and then any marks will be on the inside and never noticed. Unfortunately, my jeans have marks all over them and I tried to wipe what I could off with a wash cloth. Next time I will remember to turn them inside out. It doesn't do it for very long and it seems to particularly like jeans so that's my solution for continued use of the bars.

Bounce Dryer Bars

I decided to try the new Bounce Dryer Bar a few months ago. I got the 2 month bar and apparently I don't do an average amount of laundry because it's lasted quite a bit over 3 months so far. It's almost empty now, so here's the verdict: at first I wasn't very impressed because it left white marks on my jeans and dark colored shirts. The marks came out the next time I washed them and the package has instructions for getting rid of the marks so they don't ruin anything, but still annoying. After a few loads it stopped making the white marks and for some reason it seems to make the laundry process easier. I don't know what's so hard about the extra step of putting in a dryer sheet, but it just seems so easy to swap the clothes and turn it on and not have to do it. I bought another Bounce bar and will be swapping it in soon. We'll see how much I like it when the white marks appear again, or maybe they won't and I'll be hooked.
