We all need notes like this to remind us why we are here in the first place:

I've never done any kind of drug so I'll let someone else verify this message on a bathroom wall.
See my other article about graffiti (graffiti-get-rid-of-it) and why to get rid of it right away:

Does Goodwill have a competitor store?

Depending on where you are, you might wish you could close the bathroom permanently:

Some people might say this in their heads!

Remember personal ads in the newspaper? This was hanging on a wall. All of the little tear offs were gone so I hope they had luck finding each other!

Good advice!

Installing PayRange on Maytag MYR Washers

Cashless payment system companies send instructions for owners to install the products themselves. Some of these directions can be confusing. For some owners that is a little intimidating if they are not familiar with tools or their machines. Using PayRange as an example, the short video below, hopefully will help you get an idea on where to start the process of installing your readers on large chassis washers. While all brands of payment systems are different in how they are hooked up, there are several similarities between them all that if you understand one, perhaps it will help you with another brand. Enjoy the video and I hope it helps!

Installing PayRange on Maytag MHN33 and MHN30 Washers

 When it comes to installing cashless payment systems on washers and dryers, almost all of the companies say that you can install it yourself. For some owners that is a little intimidating if they are not familiar with tools or their machines. Using PayRange as an example, the short video below, hopefully will help you get an idea on where to start the process of installing your readers. While all brands are different and how they are hooked up, there are several similarities between them all that if you understand one, perhaps it will help you with another brand.

May 2024 Newsletter

 

Everet's May 2024 Laundry Newsletter Spring is here!

Tidbits From the WASHtub Some of you might recognize Sandy and Reed in the picture above from the days when Reed ran the parts department at Great Lakes Commercial Laundry. Both of them are retired now. Reed taught everyone a lot about this business and how to fix their machines. He always said "thank you" to everyone. You might notice I do the same thing. One of the articles explains why.   You might notice that you are getting the May newsletter in June. There was a delivery error. That means you get the benefit of two messages this month from me! Thank you for your understanding. I hope you find something useful in both issues.   Need to Change Minutes on Your Huebsch or Speed Queen dryers? Here is how: program-price-and-top-off-minutes Huebsch and Speed Queen dryers   For years I have been asked my opinion on cashless payment systems.
