Shampoo will do its soap.just rinse off under tap after cleaning plates

I always fill the empty washing up liquid bottle with hot water to eek out every bit that maybe left inside,but then I come from a long line of eekers.My late mum was a champion at streeetching things out. have you a little washing soda that may help in hot water but give them a good rinse afterwards to make sure they are squeeky clean

ohh , i got one , put a little vinegar in your water when doing glasses. I have a biggggggg bottle of white vinegar , gets loads of stuff clean and is really cheap

Help! - I've run out of washing up liquid and cannot get out to buy more because of the weather. What is an effective alternative please?

Don't use soap or washing powder, I've ried it and it's basty tasting
Have you got any kind of mild shampoo just use a tiny bit and elbow grease?

Original Stardrops will do the job, if you have any in:)

Barneysmom

Have you any bicarb, you could sprinkle some on a cloth to rub stains then rinse well. Or salt.

Baby shampoo is not bad for washing up but can't think of anything else unless you have stardrops.

Actually, better than that, knock on a neighbours door and ask for some. Then suprise them by baking a cake for them or something
