I HAD to go to the drugstore today to buy a bag of "Putman's little horse" dye...
Since Nanny seemed to have a special fondness for clorhine, we stopped buying it (too many stained clothes!)...and we bought "Vanish" instead...
The ad even has a lady in pink teaching another lady how to use it and, at one point the lady in pink pours some of the stuff directly from the bottle onto the clothes (which is what our Nanny did to one of Ale's uniform skirts!)...well, in the ad, the lady in pink says: Don't worry, it won't stain, trust the Pink stuff!....yeah, well, The Pink Stuff de-colored our skirt!...a skirt that I had purposefully bought 1 size too big so it would last 2 school years...Not only that, but, Nanny had to go through God-knows-how-many hours of agony before I got home to tell me she had ruined Ale's skirt...(No, I'm never mean about stuff she ruins/breaks... it could happen to anybody and, hardly ever has anything been ruined/broken out of carelessness on her part...)
So, since Ale only has 2 uniform skirts, I had to go to the drugstore and buy the dye (luckily, it only costs $0.75!)...I then had to boil the whole thing and, now I have the skirt on the line, drying, and hoping that the material WILL take (otherwise I'll have to buy another skirt!)...
I think I'll write the manufacturer to let them know their ads are misleading...either fix the product or pull the ad off the air!
