Free PLASTIC washing powder scoop

Hi there,

Does anyone know where I can get a free washing powder scoop that's PLASTIC?

I sent away for one from Surf awhile ago, and if not getting one in the washing powder box anymore isn't bad enough, the one they sent me was this flimsy cardboard scoop thingy. It's useless as it bends etc. while your trying to get the powder out, it's already started to break.

I'm all for going green, but when going green means they start making things that aint fit for purpose, what's the point of even making it at all anymore!

Thanks


Ninko

    Could be worth checking the packets on the next shop as some have details for scoops etc

    If you have a Pets at Home near to you just call in and ask for a dried pet food cup. These are solid and work brilliantly as soap powder cups :D xx

  • Thanks for the link; I actually use a washing net to hold my 'colour grabber' sheets, so that they stay with the clothes being washed (ie: as opposed to getting stuck against the door). :)
    If it's cheap, I'm cheerful!

    Thanks santer, do you know if they are plastic or cardboard as i THINK that may have been who I got my last cardboard scoop from.

    Thanks for the advise chris n tj, I may have to do something like that if I have no joy getting a proper washing powder scoop.
