I buy Netto's own washpowder - 5kg box for £1.88 - I mix it half with Persil, and sometimes use it on its own depending on what it is I'm washing.Be careful who you open up to. Today it's ears, tomorrow it's mouth.0

i watch out on asda online for there asda price offers and swoop instore to take advantage. i like bold tablets, £4 for 48 and only use 1 tablet a time but still get lovely smell (under 9p a wash). i always used too much powder and it made my drawer gloopy.0

I mixed a pkt of Tescos good quality with a pkt of tesco value and 2 pkt of washing soda....put it in a large container mixed. I then use about 1/2 recommended amount and put in the holder you get for liquid and put in drum. Had no problems with getting clothes cleanWe don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.0

I use half the quantity and one spoonful of soda crystals.
Btw the Co-op have their own 2 in 1 washing powder on BOGOF at the moment and it's only £1.99 to start with! They also have their 3 in 1 dishwasher tables on BOGOF too which works out at £1.25 a box of 30.Organised people are just too lazy to look for things
F U Fund currently at £2500 -
Yep I use 1/2 a tablet at the minute (Bold, got on offer before Xmas, still have a few boxes left) and a spoon of soda crystalsOne day I might be more organised...........
