I am sure I saw somewhere that someone uses a couple of teaspoons of this in their washing machine, does anyone else use it in their washer?
I would imagine you would def have to put some conditioner in too as the smell may be ok for cleaning the kitchen/bathroom but I don't think I would want my clothes smelling of it.
Since reading OS forum I use a tiny amount (about a level dessert spoon) of cheap washing powder with the same quantity of soda crystals in the ball, and a quick squirt of Stardrops in the dispenser drawer on a 30 degree wash. I have to say it's the cleanest wash I've ever had - and I've done a few in me time! - and the cheapest. Any deep stains get a scrub with a tiny drop of Stardrops on an old toothbrush before going into the machine. I won't say laundry is exactly a pleasure now but at least I don't throw a hissy fit finding stains still there when taking the washing out of the machine any more!:D
Oh, and there's no smell of Stardrops, the machine rinses 3 times before laundry gets hung on the line so all I get is a lovely fresh air smell :T0 -

My favourite advert as a child in the 1950's was this song.
Stardrops cleans all around the house ...for less than half a crown.

Hiya, I had been advised to have a look at this thread, as a means to cutting down my shopping bill. So i have just bought some at Asda 64p and today will be my first day of using it. I will read through your posts with interest and see where I can use it.
Thankyou

I cleaned every appliance BM GF grill, Smothie, toaster, FP, etc before storing in new utility room. I was dreading doing the Deep fat frier, I emptyed the oil out and was faced with the task of removing all the stuck on gunge. I used neat Star drops and was amazed at how quick and easy it was. It norrmaly takes ages with Fairy. Wont use anything else now.0

Well I've been using our favourite product for some time now, and OH cooked dinner the other evening (lucky me) and as usual he used every pot/pan/dish that could be know to man.
This included a large glass pyrex roasting type dish which was so burnt repeatedly from his previous cooking that oven pride and brillo pads have failed.
So when I got around to doing the dishes I remembered Stardrops had really worked well on the baked on stuff in the oven and grill. So I used a sponge to make it all foamy and liberally applied it, and then left it for 15 minutes- rinsed and repeated.
WOW its like new! OK a few bits I had to scrape but prevously I couldnt even get them to scrape off!
I didn't think I could love this stuff anymore than I did, but it continally amazes me!
Winky xRight now I'm having amnesia and deja- vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before0 -
