    I have just bought the Tesco own brand non biological washing tablets this weekend instead of Persil - wish I hadnt bothered as they are no way near as good :( so i would not recommend them.

    the coop have got theirs on bogof at the moment at £2.09 per 1kg box it seems ok and they do different sorts ie colours,bio,non bio

    Sainsbury's Basic Bio powder is fine, but I usually add an extra rinse to the cycle as it seems to leave clothes a bit "hard"!
    "Cheap", "Fast", "Right" -- pick two.

    I use Asda's own non bio, bio and fragrance free softener.

    I had to stop using branded powders because my daughter was reacting to all the perfume and was getting weepy rashes in the folds of her skin. I also don't like fragranced stuff as it makes me sneeze. Asda's stuff is fragrance free and is great.

    I bought morrisons stuff a while back and the powder was smelly while the fabric softener kept bunging the drawer up.
    Just run, run and keep on running!

    I`ve been using Aldo own brand powder for coloured for a couple of months now, but have had to stop because son and daughter have both said they`re allergic to it, they`re itching.
    Its a shame cos i was impressed with it.

    Have you considered the natural washing powder. http://www.gogreen.cellande.co.uk/shop/products/soapnuts/soapnuts.htm
    Financially a good deal & econmically too. Hope that helps.

    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.
