Yeah, finding truly unscented bags is difficult. We don't order them from online.

Yeah. I might end up getting replacements at retail, on closer inspection in addition to being significantly larger (90/120 vs 60ish); it looks like the listings on Amazon showing unscented bags all have the "package may vary" text. Fortunately I didn't actually submit a new order before noticing.
I started ordering them, along with most non-perishable items online a few years ago after my local store did a re-layout that appears to've been done to make finding things harder in the hope that by forcing people to wander around longer they'd make more impulse sales[1]. Jokes on them though, not only did I reduce the amount of stuff I buy there to keep my time spent the same; but whenever I'm on a "WT did they hide X" snipe hunt I not only keep walking past anything that would otherwise have been a potential impulse buy; but add it to the list of things I'll never buy from them.
[1] It's either that, or they got blackout drunk and moved stuff around by throwing darts at a map of the store. I doubt this though, it was too systematically awful to be random.

You buy trashbags online ?

Even with shipping factored into Amazons prices it's still cheaper than what my local store charges; and as noted in a reply above I've been trying to reduce my spend there in protest to bad management actions.

Probably to be compared to how Amazon are treating their employees and destructing jobs everywhere, but I get your point. I have multiple stores for trivial things around, so this is not going to happen any soon that we have only online as an alternative/protest. Buying from Amazon remains the exception, fortunately.

Unfortunately I only have one reasonably close large grocery chain.
There used to be a second (but it was generally lower quality or more expensive), but the company who owned all its localish franchises went bust a decade ago; and the current quasi-monopoly bought all their buildings in the bankruptcy sale to prevent a rival from moving in. That leaves me with various dollar stores, one medium sized grocery in a poor part of town that almost exclusively has cheap low quality stuff, and if I want to drive 20+ minutes across town a Wallmarx.

Wishlists have a similar problem. By the time someone actually wants to buy something on a wishlist, the product page it's linked to has often changed, particularly the price has gone up!
I always do a fresh search whenever I want to buy anything. Even a repeat order. It's the only reliable way to be sure you get what you expect, for the price you want.

Perfect reason to NOT use auto-reorder for anything.
|
|

You completely missed the point. Because they changed the existing product record replacing the unscented bags with pre-stenched ones my normal manual reorder process would have and probably did fail as well.

Those Febreeze products are some of the most repulsive things I've encountered. The fact that there's a market for such shite says volumes about many consumers.

Otherwise unless you're trying to pinch pennies by only emptying your trash every few weeks, by which point any food on the bottom is going to be quite rotten, the cure is worse than the disease. And if you're that cheap, you're probably not buying premium trashbags anyways.

Same for dog blankets/towels. I hand wash in a bucket with soap, rinse, then soak for an hour in diluted febreeze. Only way I have found to get the funk out.

I have learned for $$ purchases, one best screen capture the order page. I have been burned by Amazon changing the order after the fact. Don't even get me started on the customer support. Pecker heads

A toaster in the bath gives no smoke, it just makes the lights go off. No special effects like in the movies either. No lightning flashes for five seconds in the tub, and no screaming either. Muscles contract when electrocuted, so your weak electric signals from the brain are overwritten.
One might turn a deep purple color after though.
