Was it Ben Franklin who said "A bib in time saves nine pieces of laundry?" No?

The Bib Clips cost about $13 at Kiddly Winks in Longmeadow (413-567-0688), Magic Beans in Brookline (617-264-2326), Mulberry Road in Boston (617-859-5861), Right Start in Natick (508-650-1271), and online at kipiis.com.
