I learned from taking a marketing/business class years ago that different brands use the same plant for their products and rent the use rather than owning their own plant (otherwise, there would be a zillion plants). The product is the same but the labels change. So there will be a run of so many of one brand, then they will run so many of another brand and so on. That's why products are identical between some brands. They're using the same plant. When I find good dupes or generic labels, I buy those.

With the dishwasher pods, I had decided to not use them when my last dishwasher went out. My new one comes in and what does it have as a "gift"? The dang pods. I have heard too many stories of the pods melting on the heating element, I will stick with liquid from now on.

I'm rough on my hands but Udder Cream / Working Hands cream: Apply at night, and massage and work into your cuticles and hangnails, pushing your cuticles gently down once they've softened with your stick or fingernail. If they're crawling up your nail, it might take a few days of this to start making a difference. Saved my life when living in a cold dry climate. There are overnight treatments that are really thick and seal in, but if you get up several times a night you'll wash it off so go for a cheaper thinner daytime faster absorbing formula and apply more often.

Vivian, lovey, I buy wooden popsicle sticks at Dollar Tree, in the craft section, to scoop any product out of a jar, anything! I never put my hands into pots, jars, containers of anything - that leads to spoilage, contamination, right? Single use and discard and oh yeah, they're compostable. In addition, I just saw a video somewhere that those dishwasher 'pods' will clog up your household drains ... that hard plastic-y bit that's left, NO BUENO!!! My plumber has told me to only use Cascade liquid dishwasher detergent, period, that's the best product to use in the automatic electric dishwasher.
