I was at Home Depot yesterday, and I was checking and comparing prices for regular Clorox (3.98/1.5 gal) and "deck cleaner" Clorox (4.98/1.5 gal). Of course I was UNinterested at those prices and was explaining to my DD why. An older gentleman, who was perched at the entrance hawking air conditioners, walks up to me and says, "You know, Dollar General has regular bleach for 99 cents a gallon--you don't need that stuff to clean your deck." I laughed and told him I was just checking prices, that the "deck cleaner" was just the less stable 10-12%, and that I only buy generic bleach for my pool. He replied, "Good for you! Chlorine is chlorine--you're spending your money wisely." It was the very first time in 6 years of BBB that I didn't have to defend my decision!
