"Trials" of Living as a Foreignor

So, when we first got here our apartment had given us a couple packets of dishwasher soap and laundry soap.  I set out to buy more and found this product in the laundry aisle.  If you look at it, would you guess laundry detergent?  It smells fragrant. 

Just to be sure, I did ask a lady in the aisle.  She didn't know the English word and I kept showing her my empty packet of laundry detergent and pointing to this bottle, in effort to ask if it was the same thing.  She looked in her translator to find the word and told me...that this, my friends, is bleach.  It's always good to ask!  And, I did avoid a laundry disaster :)
