Anyone still use "Drey-ell" Dryer sheet dry cleaning thingy

[Jim Helfer]

Does anyone still remember these? I think they were called "Dry-ell"
.. The idea was that you bought a kit that included a plastic bag with a
velcro closure and a dryer sheet. You put what you wanted to dry
clean into it with the sheet and popped it into the dryer.

I used them for my dress shirts. Seemed to work ok. Seemed like it
would be easier on my good office shirts than the washing machine once a
week, and they came out pretty easy to iron.

Are these still around? Haven't seen them at my local stores.

They're still in stores here, but this is P&G's world headquarters. You can
read about them at the Dryel website: http://www.dryel.com/usa/index.shtml
and you can buy them online -- just do a google search.

I use the Dry Cleaners Secret ones. They don't require a bag. I had one of
those bags melt in my gas dryer on the medium setting that it recommends.
So, I don't use that type anymore.

I use them to freshen up suits between dry cleaning. Saves a lot of
money when dry cleaning a suit costs $12.00!!
