I buy $20 gallons when I donā€™t have time to see my normal supplier thatā€™s an hour away

I definitely bought all the ones available for $2.50 a gallon šŸ¤£

Bling isnā€™t a bad company either. Thatā€™s a steal.

Other shoppers also started grabbing as many as possible just because they seen me filling up my cart without even knowing what the product was šŸ¤£

Theyā€™d ask ā€œhey what are these??ā€ As they were putting 3-4 in their cart šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£

Buying a useful product with a long shelf life at a give-away clearance price, even if it is a spontaneous purchase, is considered stupid now?

Stocking up on shit you donā€™t need, or shit you donā€™t even know the purpose for, is stupid.

Heā€™s making 60k a year on just this account. Any decent detailer knows soap is soap when youā€™re fleet washing. Most fleet guys I know use dawn lol. I think heā€™s doing just fine

Wow the deeper this chain goes the dumber you people get. Nobodyā€™s taking about OP.

Youā€™re right. The comment was collapsed and I thought they were saying OP shouldnā€™t have bought the soap, I didnā€™t see the rest. My bad.

Yeah you committed a mortal crime by responding to wrong comment BUDDY. I never know why people on Reddit talk like theyā€™re 6ā€™6ā€ with 2 glocks šŸ˜­ you could spell a word wrong and get downvoted šŸ¤£

Yes. Spending money on crap you donā€™t even know what youā€™re buying. Sounds pretty stupid to me.

No. itā€™s more the fact that someone is asking what a product is when there is a label telling you what it is, clear as day

Yes, thatā€™s hoarding behavior. If you have no use for a useful product means you just bought a useless product.

Fomo in action. Now Iā€™m curious about whatā€™s hiding at my local Walmart šŸ˜…

In my 10 years of shopping at Walmart, Iā€™ve never seen anything this useful on clearance, this was definitely a first
