Many Thanks

Has anyone else got one of these going spare?
My boyfriend has just fitted our kitchen and unfortunately has blocked in the soap dispensor drawer of our washing machine and there is nothing he can do to remedy it…. (great!)
Have a ton of washing powder to use and don’t want to chuck it onto our clothes without protection.
Any spare powder ball most gratefully received… Will happily pay postage and a ball fee if required!
Thanks,
Anna

Sounds like someone needs to find a way to make one of these from recycled materials, so that all these people who are desperate to get one can make their own as even if they get one of the many people have stashed away, it sounds like they break quite frequently. I have a few but just re-use them but if I haven’t had one to hand I just stick the lid of the washing liquid in the machine, obviously not as well designed to disperse the liquid as a round ball but never had a problem.

In common with a number of other responders, I too have been searching for a replacement for the ball that I have, that is getting very tired of being repaired. If you have another of these that you would be willing to part with I would be completely happy to pay your price! Email me nic.gurney@smithsdetection.com.

I have spent months searching for one of these balls and considering the number of similar comments, there seems to be a gap in the market! If no one else has taken up your offer, I’d love to! Happy to pay P&P or whatever. email me quirk@one-name.org

OMG!!!i have been trying to find these for ages. They don’t sell these anymore!! Have you got any more? I’ll pay postage, etc.

If there is anything that is usable, but you don’t want it, I recommend posting your item on Freecycle (yahoo groups, but just Google “Freecycle” to find it). Its good for the environment!

I have been looking EVERYWHERE for these, as they are the only method I have found that doesn’t leave a smeary powder line on clothes, and mine is split and ready to retire.
I cannot find any retailers who still sell them ,would you part with one for a few quid? I can post a cheque which would cover costs and P&P. Pls respond

I’ve never seen these before!

I think they could be made into potpourri balls… they’d look interesting on the Christmas tree.

I’d love to have them, but I don’t know what the post would cost to send them – I’m in Canada!
