Finish Dishwasher Tablets 5p each

Options
Somerfields special offer - available in 66's & marked 50% extra free. I always thought 10p each was a good price.
Nice to save.

    Loads left at Somerfield in Hemsworth (West Yorkshire) - bought 2 boxes so now have 7 months supply! - and they also had 25 tablets for £1.50 if the other offer isn't there.

    I bought some and then realised they arent the 3in1 one's

    What do I need to go with them?

    I stopped buying dishwasher tablets when I realised how much per kg they were costing ....

    e.g most well known brands work out at between £7 and £9 per kg for 3-in-1 tablets

    but you can buy Asda 3-in-1 powder at £2.36 per kg

    Even cheaper at Tesco ... approx £1.80 per kg

    Been using powder for about 3 months now, and to be honest, I can't tell the difference between it and the tablets.

    Thanks for that little tip, AlanS :)

    Went into Tesco today and saw that 3kg of their lemon 3-in-1 powder was £5.49, which as you said is around £1.80 per kilo

    However, they currently have an offer on the 1kg containers, where you buy 2 x 1kg and it costs you £3.16, which brings the price down to just £1.58 per kilo :cool:
    Thanks to all who post constructively.

    Went into Tesco today and saw that 3kg of their lemon 3-in-1 powder was £5.49, which as AlanS pointed out in this thread is around £1.80 per kilo, and substantially cheaper than dishwasher 3-in1 tablets

    However, they currently have an offer on the 1kg containers, where you buy 2 x 1kg and it costs you £3.16, which brings the price down to just £1.58 per kilo

    As a rough guide, 3-in-1 tablets often work out at £7 to £9 per kilo
    Thanks to all who post constructively.
