i haven't used them but just thought about getting them for my goodmamas. Where did you get yours? How long did it take before they fell apart?

I use them but really I don't notice ANY difference in fabric softness or drying time...

Stacey, but you have a kick ass washer and dryer....so that right there probably helps a lot with softness and such anyway!!!!!

I bought some a couple of months ago at the Grocery Outlet. I think I got them for about $3? Anyway, so far so good except I don't think they do a great job when I have a large load of sheets or towels. So I usually throw a dryer sheet in with those.

Wow, $3 is a great price. I bought them for $10 in the "As Seen on TV" section in Long's (next to the ped-eggs;) )

We got them.. at food maxx, I think.. They reccomend at least 2 for reg loads, I think, but we do fine using 1 at a time, too... They *do* add fluff and softness to our loads, though.. it's nice ;)

I also got mine at the good ol' GO and they work fabulously, we all have reactions to fabric softeners so these are a happy medium and they work wonders!

MIL uses the blue ones & I personally think they are POS...I had to do laundry at her place once & all of my clothes had static...
