Yes folks, there is a new product line coming out for the lazy, oops, I
mean for the ones that can't be bothered with washing their bed sheets.
It is a 7-layer throwaway product, better described as the peel-away
sheets. "Just peel off the ew and sleep in the new" is the tag line of
AfreSHeet. If you'd like to read from the source, go here: http://www.elledecor.com/shopping/home-accessories/news/a6230/peel-away-sheets/
I wouldn't hardly call this an invention, but they seem to think that
the hassle of changing your bed sheets is especially troublesome for
college students, etc. These particular throwaway fabric sheets have a
waterproof coating to preserve underneath layers, and they did mention
that the material is recyclable. Ha! I really wonder how many people
are going to rush to the nearest recycling bin after they get done
peeling off a new layer?
Some people may think this is a fantastic idea, but I just don't get it.
Washing the sheets on your bed isn't like some daunting task. The
washer and dryer does most of the work, and all you do is pull 'em off
and then put them back on after they dry. Is the traditional method too
much work? With this new peel-away product, you can be lazy 7
consecutive times before having to buy more throwaway bed sheets. Wow!
The only break-through I see here is the marketing savvy; promote
laziness and make big financial gains from it! I would never buy this
crap!

I found this post by searching to see if there really was such a thing. I heard somebody talking about this silly crap at work and couldn't believe it was actually true. That is just flat out being super lazy!!! Well that or being a spoiled little wasteful brat! I mean, who in their right mind would even think about needing new sheets every few days? Peel-away bed sheets are the new throwaway thing? People need to get real!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! I felt very similar when I first read about this asinine subject nearly 2 years ago. Yeah, what will they think of next? Peel-away underwear or throwaway bath towels? Ha-ha!
