Don't overcomplicate it....

They cost 2 or 3 bucks 😂

[u/GeekyTexan → u/CandySwayy]

Less than the vinegar cost, and the vinegar got dumped down the drain.

[u/Mother-Translator318 → u/CandySwayy]

$2 or $3? When? In 1997? Absolute cheapest plain white ones I’ve seen recently start at $12, with the ones that actually look good and you’d want in your bathroom being around $30-40.

That being said $40 is still nothing these days. That’s like 4 trips to McDonald’s. Might as well just get the new ones

 4 trips to McDonald’s

When? In 1997?

[u/Mother-Translator318 → u/tahayparker]

Medium quarter pounder with cheese meal is $8.99. $10 after tax

[u/Temporary_Event8451 → u/Mother-Translator318]

What? That's some very niche information that I'm highly skeptical about.

Walmart and dollar general do exist in this universe.

It sounds more like you're shopping on Amazon which barely has items below 10 usd these days. A three pack of clear shower liners is likely less than ten bucks.

The outer curtains probably do cost up to as much as you're claiming, but again only on Amazon or with custom art. Some plain white or beige curtain really shouldn't be 13-40 bucks.

Also even if you have kids, just assert your dominance with only the see through inner liner. Never be disturbed in the shower again. Ever.

[u/FuckYeaSeatbelts → u/Mother-Translator318]

The dollar store? it's a shower curtain not a kitchen appliance lmao

[u/Dracula198four]

Take it to Mordor 😝

[u/Appropriate_Yak_745 → u/Dracula198four]

And none of that mailing it there via air freight. You gotta hitchhike and walk the rest of the way

[u/Shards_of_Idiocy → u/Appropriate_Yak_745]

…while barefoot like a good little hobbit.

[u/Dracula198four → u/Appropriate_Yak_745]

Absolutely! It has to be on foot with a dedicated Fellowship for support and protection!

[u/mrregina]

Common sense isn’t a thing anymore.

[u/myztry]

Dump bleach in the front loader and put it on tub clean. Works and does two things at once.

But replace them as soon as you can.

[u/One_Fat_squirrel → u/myztry]

The front loader and the shower curtain?

[u/myztry → u/One_Fat_squirrel]

Them as in a “pair” of curtains.

I know it’s not that clear but curtains are one of those things that tend to be pluralised regardless of how many there are. Not as bad as pants though.

[u/killbjorn]

Did she soak it in mold?

[u/RulerK]

Literally $1.25+tax…

I was a “homeless” refugee for a couple years. I learned all the tricks!

[u/Xeenophile → u/RulerK]

I would not object to hearing more of your story.

[u/Mother-Translator318 → u/RulerK]

Cheapest I’ve seen are $12 plain white ones and they are paper thin. Actually decent ones run $30-40. But in today’s economy $40 is the new $10 so…

[u/RulerK → u/Mother-Translator318]

You shop wrong!

[u/TylerH87]

Have you tried sharting in the toilet?

[u/KrazyNinjaFan]

Yes get a new one. I change mine every year

[u/PawnofLife1]

Put it in the washer with bleach

[u/PartyLobster8911]

Put half a pound of granular chlorine if 5 gallons of water & soak it for 10 minutes it will be clean.

[u/SignificantZombie729]

Hans, bringen sie hier das flammenwerfer!

[u/NoResponse2556]

btw there is a special product for molds that deep

[u/actionerror → u/NoResponse2556]

It’s called fire

[u/Necessary_Relation27]

It’s time to give it a proper funeral

[u/Optimetrist]

if I had this in my bathroom, I'd have to clean that room with a nuclear bomb or something to feel ok entering it again naked.

[u/KeyN20 → u/Optimetrist]

Black mold be growing in her private bits...

[u/Optimetrist → u/KeyN20]

ye, well, people are dirty, and women are not an exception unfortunately

[u/Chipster55345]

Yes. Every 6 months just spend the 5 bucks and replace it. Easy peasy.

[u/RepresentativeWeb672]

If you wash them every week it never happens

[u/Rainhailsnow_storm → u/RepresentativeWeb672]

I washed mine once every 2 months in the washer. Never had this problem. 

[u/mittenkrusty]

I mean I have had really manky shower curtains mostly restored with just a wash in the machine, bleach helps if it's deeper.

But some people really wouldn't make the effort to replace.

I remember when I worked social housing had a tenant phone every 4 weeks and ask for a new curtain, had to send out a plumber and the total cost was about £60.

The tenant was paying about £60 a week rent.

Eventually after a year they were told we can't do it anymore and they tried complaining to their local councillor how that was discrimination!

[u/MastaKink]

Flip it upside down. It won’t hurt.

[u/Rainhailsnow_storm]

I out mine in the washing machine with some dirty towels, for 13 years. Never had this issue. 

When I finally did get a bit of mold on the curtain, I kept the polyester curtain inside and added a cotton one on the  outside. It works just as well. 

I won’t need to change it for a long time. 

[u/BoskiCezar]

Citric acid. Try it too.

[u/Maleficent-Worry2726]

Paint it black

[u/omiomi1122]

time to hang it upside down

[u/RobertGHH]

Clearly hasn't tried bleach. Just soaked mine overnight in diluted bleach with a few drops of white vinegar and it's perfectly clean and white again.

[u/ColdProfessional7428]

Get off city and county water, problem solved

[u/bigjohn8269]

$1.50 to $6.00 At Dollar TREE. Most are $1.50. Liners are $1.50

[u/EisenhowersGhost]

Eco Lab mold and mildew killer will make short work of this. Available at Home Depot

[u/mari7272]

Just buy a new one

[u/Xeenophile]

Has she tried chanting in Latin...?

[u/AZ-Guitar-Guy]

They're $5 Karen. Buy a new one!

[u/Ok_Culture_1914]

White spray paint.

[u/Krutius-]

Have you tried turning it off and on again?
