You can buy these tablets at any supermarket, right?
I've actually noticed this with my dishes as well. I figured it had something to do with the hard water or repairs being done to the water line here at my complex.
I just go over it again with a wet towel/rag and everything's fine.

AFAIK, yes. My wife and I get them at our BX, but they should be at your local supermarket/Walmart.
I've bought Lemi-shine at HEB, and at Target. Not sure where else it is, probably W-M too. Never heard of the stuff, until someone told me about it, after I mentioned my dishwasher not working anymore.Where do they sell that stuff?
So there's a readily available product that will address the change in the primary product brought about by the change in regulation of phosphate.
Yes, of all the activities of the warfare/welfare state to complain about, this is weak sauce, especially with the market already offering a solution at hand.
This thread, however, speaks to some significant matters in American society. The first is the lure of mass consumerism, and its attendant lulling of Americans into a state of perpetual adolescence. A response I can see is that after busting your ass for 60+ hours a week to pay for all this , you want your fing dishwasher that you paid for to work. Still, the things you used to take care of yourself you now expect to expend little effort or thought handling. Instead of figuring out how to fix something, you buy another one or you hire someone to fix it for you. Convenient, of course. But something is lost in the process. Perhaps it is self-respect. Maybe it's just the satisfaction that comes from figuring out how something works. We live in the wealthiest nation on Earth, with the store of human knowledge at our fingertips and...we don't know how to do for ourselves. Don't you feel a little ing stupid when you have to hire someone to come check your A/C unit instead of being able to take care of it yourself? After all, you probably could if you bothered to do so. Anyways.
The second is the absolute politicization of American life, coupled with hyperbolic ideological purity. I'll leave it at that.
It's just more specialization MB. I commit a good Amy of time to just keeping in the loop on my job, plus raising a kid, plus education etc etc.
I dont know if earlier generations wouldve done the same or not. Hard to say, really. We also have a lot more entertainment products to distract us.
LOL, washing dishes by hand takes no time whatsoever if you're smart enough to take 2 seconds to rinse your plate off when you dump it in the sink. I can't believe people pay for these stupid dishwashing machines. You can sell anything to people in this country if you advertise it.
True, free time is limited commodity for most. Family time versus figuring out how to fix your A/C is a good trade.
Though the fact that you have to push to find family time...
You people just don't understand how difficult is to memorize I have to buy another product and use it on the dishwasher... what for? To save some fish?
Since when fish is more important than shiny dishes?
I've got three dishwashers in my house. Used to have four but, one of them is serving in the military and no longer available at meal time.
I could also wash my clothes by hand in a river, but I prefer the conveniences that 20th century technology provides.
It appears your 20th Century technology is failing. I've never liked dishwashers...they never get the dishes as clean as I would like. In fact, when we did use one, I used to laugh at the fact my wife would "wash the dishes before washing the dishes." It was ridiculous
So, we just discontinued using the dishwasher as anything more than a place to dry our dishes or warm them for meals.
My wife and I have noticed this over the last few months and we're like WTF is wrong with the stupid dishwasher.
The thing that pisses me off is that this phosphate ban went kind of "under the radar" (at least I don't remember any news about it) and I'm sure a lot of people spent money unnecessarily trying to fix an appliance that wasn't broken.
Darrin is mad he was to stupid to solve his dishwasher issues. I love this thread.
Well, they don't work miracles, that's for sure.
I'm too stupid to use grammar, the difference is I don't blame anyone else and start threads stomping my feet about it.
I'm not going to lie though, it definitely stings that Darrin just got over on me. FML.
C'mon, I think there is a valid point to be made about the detergent companies giving in to environmental interests and hoping the consumer wouldn't notice.
This is actually lol.
Just like your penis, you fat and obese .
More wrong or more paranoid? Hard to tell.
, some detergent companies even brag about being environmentally conscious right on the bottle. It's an effing selling point.

It's only a selling point to green s.
