Non-bio washing powder deals/brands?

LittleHippyHop

Hi everyone

I'm currently looking at ways to lower my shopping bills, and as we get through alot of washing I thought i'd start here!

I just wondered if there anyone has seen any good deals for non-bio powder? We currently use fairy or persil, which are the only ones we have tried (non-bio as we have babies) but not sure if there are any other brands (cheaper?) we could try?

Thanks

You could also try searching HotUKDeals and mySupermarket. No need to sign up to mySupermarket, just click on Browse around. Click on any images on mySupermarket to see what other supermarkets are offering or click on the tabs near the top of the page.

According to Which? Persil Original is the most effective Non-Bio product. It's the only Which? Non-Bio 'Best Buy'. You may be disappointed by cheaper alternatives.

Yeah, I must say I'm so glad I switched to Persil non bio as well. Was using supermarkets own for sometime, noticed the powder wasn't rinsing off my clothes properly after a wash and had to run a rinse a second time quite frequently. Find Ariel great for refreshing my towels as well though this isn't non bio, brings 'em up nice and clean. Actually bought Ariel initially for washing my uniform which keeps my tops fairly white.

You could however make your own washing powder, or laundry gloop as it's also known as.

Have a look at Save Zillions On Cleaning Products as well.

Hi persil no bio tabs are £2 for 10 in asda, if u look on discount codes and vouchers thread there is coupon for £1 off non bio, also on the same coupon page there is a moc for 75p off comfort pure which is £2 for £2 at asda too.... These are pdf format so u can use many as like as not individual coupons

I find the Co Op non bio concentrated liquid is good and they often have it on BOGOF

I tend to use this for dark washing and use the upmarket brands ie Persil or Fairy for whites

Lidl's Formil brand is excellent.

I thought ASDA's was the worst, I did quite like Waitrose own brand powder though. Haven't seen any offers though, must be in store.
