Is this for real? Do people buy this?

As a good MSE I stumbled upon half price 'Winter Spice' bleach from Sainsburys! Do people really buy this at Christmas time? What for - bleach is bleach. I'm happy with the price but really ......... what next - mulled wine toilet cleaner?

    I hate the smell of bleach so if it smelt better to me than the regular smell I'd be inclined to buy it.

    There's a summer seasonal scented bleach as well. "Mulled wine"? That's an air freshener.

    Nope. The smell of bleach is so overpowering that that's all one can smell.

    Pointless.

    I love the smell of bleach. Clean, better than artificial scents.

    Fair enough, won't bother then.

    How?

    It doesnt pretend to be lavender or lemon zest or spring flowers.

    It's just bleach! :cool:

    Yakky tack that will make your throat burn if used in confined places.. nasty if it gets on pets feet and totally unnecessary these days.
    Not a lover of bleach

    Nope, they dont. Thats why you get it half price in April.

    The scent of MSE'ers gathered around, bickering about the cost of seasonal bleach.

    Mulled Whine.

    B'dum - tish.
