TIL that "magic" stain remover I saw on Facebook was just watered down bleach

Saw this ad for a spray that supposedly removes ANYTHING from clothes. Grass, wine, even old set-in grease. Paid $35 for a 3-pack. First use on a coffee stain? Nothing. Second use on a ketchup spot? Nada. I looked at the ingredients and it's literally just bleach and water with a fancy label. Could have bought a gallon of bleach for $4. Waste of money and time. Anyone else fall for one of those viral cleaning product videos?

Did one of my friends buy the exact same thing, no joke.

Must be something in the water or maybe our credit cards are talking to each other behind our backs. That's three friends now who all showed up with the same thing this week and now I'm the odd one out. Guess I need to start stalking everyone's online carts before I buy anything so I don't look like a copycat. It is wild how the algorithm decides what we all need at the exact same time though. Felt pretty dumb when I realized I was part of the group chat matching clothing without meaning to.

Oh I totally get that "no joke" feeling @hunt.quinn, it always catches me off guard when that happens. It's like we all shop from the same brain without even realizing it. I've noticed lately that when a certain style pops up, suddenly everyone I know has the same sweater or gadget within a week. It makes me wonder if we're all just scrolling the same stuff and timing our buys the same way. Kind of funny how connected people are now without even trying.
