    I buy the yellow bottles from Lidls for 39p each, and found them to be as good as fairy etc.

    I use the cheapo stuff from Morrisons and add a tablespoon of washing soda if the pans etc are minging. That cuts through all the grease in no time.

    I use tesco value for soaking saucepans, pie dishes etc & Sainsburys basil & rosemary for general, not becuse it's any better (it isn't tecos value brand works fine), not beacuse it's any cheaper (at 89p a bottle it's 53p dearer ) and not beacuse it lasts longer (there is a washing up liquid conspricy against me which means they all magically go from half full to dregs at the end of every fortnight ) but beacuse I'm hooked on the scent. I think it must be addictive:confused::o:eek::rotfl:



    And to me, leaving washing up would be roughly the equlivent of putting putting a bank card in a cash point then leaving it there to normal people (The inner Monica in me speaks!)
    Post Natal Depression is the worst part of giving birth:p

    In England we have Mothering Sunday & Father Christmas, Mothers day & Santa Clause are American merchandising tricks:mad: Demonstrate pride in your heirtage by getting it right please people!

    ECOVER for us as we have sensitive skin and it lathers up brilliantly  - not cheap but lasts ages 
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Another vote for Aldi's Magnum and their Premium wul is brilliant, very little is needed.
    Normal people worry me.

    Where did you find this 14 year old thread?
    Aldis Magnum is the best by far and value for money it can’t be beaten. 
    Which proved this a few years ago. 
    I’ve been shopping in Lidl quite a lot lately because of the convenience compared to Aldi during Covid and the difference in quality on pretty much everything is notable, Aldi is far Better and the same price
