I think they meant that if the students hadn't told the company, they and their classmates could have done their laundry for free.

That is still not ethical and qualifies as stealing

They charge $2.50 a load these days. They’re the ones that are stealing.

Bruh, I worked for laundry company in Ottawa. Many landlords were charging $4.50 CAD for a wash and $2.50 for a dry back in 2015. I shudder to think how high its gotten now.

Fucking shit ass garbage company. Boss was a smarmy cunt too. "Walked 10 miles up hill both ways to school" kind of prick.

Laundry is a basic service that should be easily affordable for everyone. Charging a premium for it is scummy.

Steal from landlord laundry every chance you get.
