    I asked if they would send a small amount out and how much it would be, told them I didn't want to buy a bigger quantity until I knew it worked! They emailed back to say they'd send a free sample instead.

    I got a free sample and made a liquid for cleaning surfaces with. I would not buy them because i make gloop which is a lot cheaper.

    I asked for a sample using their contact us bit on the site.........and got completely ignored. No sample, no knockback.....nothing. :confused:

    when i emailed for my sample, they didnt answer straight away, a couple of days later. Also maybe they are shut for the easter holidays?

    I emailed to ask if they were suitable fopr severe excema sufferers as my eldest suffers and they are sending me a sample. If it doesnt irritate her then I will be buying a huge bag. Although I use Surcare to wash everything if this is milder then hopefully it will help her

    My sample arrived this morning - will be using them in a little while so will let you know how I get on :D I received enough for about 3 x bags and live in a very soft water area, so may get up to 20 washes out of them :j

    I got some today - I think I have enough for about 2 'lots', so probably about 10 washes worth.

    Think I'll test some on the bath mat later today as it looks a bit grubby

    Update: After my earlier post, I received a lovely pm from the person who runs inasoapnutshell to explain that they had been snowed under with sample requests (tut tut you lot! ;):D ) and they would check if any had been sent out to me or not.

    Sample received this morning (thank you Clare if you are reading :beer: ) and I look forward to trying them out.

    I think the postie may have squashed them at the bottom of his bag as they were more bits that shell if you know what I mean, but I expect they'll still do the same job.

    I've been moaning about my washing powder for some time now so I hope these are effective and I'll happily change to using them as a rule.

    Just out of interest everyone, has anyone who has used them NOT been happy with them?

    I received a sample this morning, though I hadn't received any emails from them replying to my request for a sample. dh, dd3 and ds all have very sensitive skin, and the children's eczema is easily made worse by washine powders, so I have high hopes, will be testing them shortly - may do the pj's then they can try out for any reactions tonight!

    well, i've got a lovely clean math mat hanging on the line! I watched as the water soaped up (how sad is that?!) - I was amazed so little worked so well!

    I received my sample this morning, very bashed up. Will they still work ok?
    Are there enough to do a full load? More than 1 load? Oh, the stress of freebies!! ;)
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)
