    Hi

    Have you tried Lidl dishwasher tablets? I find them as good as any other I have tried and are about £1.80 for 30.

    Do you mean soap powder as in bold, daz, ariel etc?

    Without sounding rude - is this for real?????

    I am surprised that people use soap powder or stardrops in the dishwasher. Would saving soooooo much money since the Fairy tabs cost a fortune.

    Tesco value dishwasher tabs are great - get everything really clean and cost about £1.80 for 30:j

    Hi,
    I have used regular washing powder, too. I use the cheapest I can find! Just a teaspoonful and the dishes come out sparkling. Nothing ever tastes soapy.
    Try it - I'm sure you'll be surprised.

    I use the "Daisy" brand from Tesco's (their discount line). I went straight from using Finish Quantum Mega-Expensive (I had a voucher for lots of money off) to Daisy and haven't noticed any difference

    I agree....
    I always used to use the most expensive Lidl dishwasher tablets, and found the results as good as Finish.....

    Then one day, I asked my dad to pick up the same, whilst in Lidl....
    He picked up the cheaper version ....

    To be honest... I cant tell the difference....
