Reader Mark came up with a way to get at that last bit of laundry detergent, the stuff that intransigently clings to container walls, refusing to drip into your measuring cup. By punching a hole in the bottom corner of the container, Mark is able to extract enough detergent to clean a small or medium load of clothes. Do you have other ways of freeing residual detergent? Tell us in the comments.







I do what HRMANN does.
Well kinda, I use powder.
But when I had liquid I pour water in and slosh.
Same happens with the Spray-n-Wash refills. I pour water in it and add to wash loads figuring those loads get a extra boost.
Just bring an awl to the laundry room; that way you can punch a hole to drain the last bit of detergent from the bottle AND have a handy self defense against muggers.
centrifugal != centripetal
in almost all manners in which one might use “centrifugal force” in casual conversation, the correct term is centripetal. just sayin’.
