Washing powder, best buy?
We tend to do about 6 washes a week in our house and I always feel that I am paying over the odds when I buy a standard box of washing powder of say 15/25 washes for £5 for example. Which ones do people buy? I have been looking at Aldi Almat £3.29 for 30 washes, and it seems to have won awards, I am keen on a larger pack…
