Do you ever feel like you're in a commercial?

For the most part I dismiss commercials. They’re just a lot of hype and BS to me.

The one where company has arrived and the hosts just realized that there is a film covering the glasses when they’re finished washing in the dish washer…. Ahhhh FREAK OUT!! ....

Except that recently I’ve been battling this very situation. I hate spending money. If I can get what I want as a knock off or generic I will. I have always bought inexpensive dishwasher soap from Dollar General. It has always worked fine for me.
Well, then one day I bought cheapo dishwasher soap from Walmart….and now there is this nasty film on all of my glasses. I’ve tried running it through 4 full cycles with nothing but water to get a super rinse on, but nothing seems to be making a dent.

I’ll get it figured out (#1, ditch that particular soap) but I hate this feeling like the commercial is pointing its finger and laughing at me!

You ever find yourself in a commercial-like situation?
