    The value Tortilla Chips are fab, lovely with salsa and cheese made into nacho's and less than 20p per bag too.
    Ours charges 25 - last I looked was yesterday.

    BTW is it just our store or do they seem to have stopped doing value stock cubes? Our store hasnt stocked any since early January and I can't seem to get any form of answer from them.

    It is not as good as the top of the range ariel,persil or bold but is about the same as the rest.

    I use it.. gets my washing clean bar the most stubborn stains - I have 2 young messy boys and a dh who's job involves getting dirty... I also get way more than the number of washes stated on the box.. a box lasts me months and I wash everyday!

    I use it. It works well enough on 'normal' dirty laundry but you do sometimes need some extra oomph from a stain remover...DD is 4 and into everything, so her clothes suffer a bit. I've got a vanish bar that I've had for ever which seems to shift the more stubborn stains (grass, ketchup, mud, etc).

    Definitely worth a go - it lasts ages.

    If you find you don't like it, you can always use it for other cleaning.

    I use it all the time and boost it with soda crystals. Never had a problem. A friend also gave me soap nuts to use, so when it runs out i use those until the next shop.
    A box lasts me about two months, so pretty good value and i do a wash load about twice a day, sometimes more, as my DD has medical problems.

    I tried it for a while and my daughter came out in a rash. The rash went when we stopped using it. She doesn't usually have sensitive skin. It's worth a try though as I think it cleans quite well.

    We've been using it for a little while - quite happy with results, and with the price!

    I'm a big fan of value washing powders, the morrisons one is fab, I do boost it with a bag of soda crystals, just to eeek it out further and only use half the amount it suggests.....give it a go!
