Sometimes, You Get What You Pay For

It is unfortunate, but sometimes this is true. For example, I bought one of those put-the-soap-in-the-handle dish sponge things at the Dollar Tree. I used it today and not only did it not work, it fell apart and changed the color of the dish water. So, the lesson is, if it looks cheap, feels cheap, and is actually cheap - don't expect much out of it.
