Yes!! My grandmother used a 7-up bottle with the sprinkler thingy attached. I well remember going to her fridge for a snack but finding plastic bags full of rolled up clothes waiting for ironing :lol:
She did wash for a living - all with non-automatic roller type washing machine and no dryer.
I do remember those washing machines, I had one. They were great with the deep set tubs. One for washed clothes and then the rinsed clothes on the other one. For you young ones the set tub had two sinks side by side but all in one unit. oh my !
