I'm old, but older than dirt ?? Not so sure about that !! LOL I do remember the water spinkler for the clothes, BUT my Mom must have had the deluxe version. She had a plastic one with a green spinkler cap on it. I used to wonder why would she hang the clothes on the line in the winter, let them freeze, take them off still wet, spinkle them, roll them into a towel and put them in the refrigerator ??? Then iron them in a few days. Must of had too much time on her hands. The clothes certainly smelled good.

Yep, older than dirt.

Absolutely all of them...Older than dirt and I have a sprinkler for my bottle!

I might be older than dirt but it was wonderful back then.Connie in CO

Putting the clothes in the refg. after they were sprinkled.

Not older than dirt; perhaps just wiser.

Older than dirt here but like someone else said "the best time of my life". We used a coke bottle for the sprinkler but grandma always drank RC cola.
My dad wore Old Spice most of his life and everytime I see a bottle I have to take a snif it. |
