Hack Your Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner

Everyone loves the Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner, except of course, for the people who don’t. The main reason not to love the Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner is the fact that the refill costs $5.99.

This is stupid. And they know it’s stupid, which is why they try to prevent you from getting the cap off of the bottle. Thankfully, with some channellocks (or a strong hand) you CAN get the cap off of the shower cleaner and replace it with cheaper stuff that works just as well. Yes, you can refill your Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner for only a dollar. The same concept should work for Swiffer Wet Jets as well. —MEGHANN MARCO
