    Also available in 500g tubs in some "Pound" shops - so even cheaper if you've got that option.

  • Have to say, the Eco footprint washing powder at 49p (for either whites wash or colour biological) turned out to be a great bargain:

    The pack said 'will do 16 washes', and the instructions were to use one small scoop (scoop provided, about the size of a dessert spoon!). I was sceptical, but tried it, am most impressed. Used the whites wash first, clothes came up really clean and when dried outside, had a good fresh fragrance too.

    I managed to get four packs before supplies ran out at my branch, that's 64 washes for £1.96! Works out at 3 pence per wash!

    And I am being green because the product is eco-friendly and saves on packaging waste ...*polishes halo*
