To ask you to recommend a cheaper laundry liquid?

[Croesotygwyn]

I’m trying to cut costs. I have always bought branded laundry liquid like Ariel, fairy or bold but it’s so expensive. I tried an own brand - I think it was Asda and it was just rubbish.
Can anyone recommend any cheaper detergent that’s not bad? I use the liquid not powder as the powder seems to clog my machine and the liquitabs are even more expensive, we are only a family of four but I do laundry every day!

Lidl or Aldi own. I do occasionally use powder but I put it straight in the drum. Tabs are a nightmare as they can clog drains!

I use Surf.

Aldi’s own is brilliant!

I just buy the branded stuff but from shops like savers, it can be a lot cheaper for the exact same product as the supermarket

If you have a Costco membership or know someone who does, Kirkland brand is good.

I've only tried non bio liquid, never had an issue with Tesco's.

I would recommend the Aldi own brand liquid wash (where you put a capful in the draw).
It's cheap and smells great and gets every day stains out too.
I used to spend a fortune on Bold, Persia etc but this has saved me a fortune. Several different fragrances to chose from too. I like the coconut one!

Same as @MBM18. Always use Tesco non bio. No problem with it.

Aldi definitely.

Aldi liquid. it rated high on the Consumer association tests. So did their dishwashing tablets and their washing powder.

Fairy sometimes is a lot cheaper on groupon

Always used to use Fairy or Ariel.

Discovered Formil at Lidl.

It's brilliant and you only need to use a small amount.

No scratching by my husband or son who are quite sensitive to laundry products.

One big box ( which is hard to get now, for some reason) will last a very long time.

HTH.

Lidl Formil. It’s fabulous.

Is powder better for your machine?

We've switched to Lidl Formil, it's good stuff

Collect conkers follow instructions on the net, make free detergent

powder direct into drum doesn't clog anything up.

lidl or aldi own brand cleaning stuff always comes up high in which! and equivalent testing services.

www.ecoegg.com/product/laundry-egg/ we switched to these and love them.

My son did a science project where he tested a variety of washing powders on 10 different stains. Aldi powder came second, beaten only by Ariel. Persil was towards the bottom.

We use aldi. No bio as dd has sensitive skin but have used the powder, liquid and powder tabs and all great.

Pink stuff liquid is really good. Smells lovely too

I have changed to Sainsburys liquid. I always use a dosing ball but might try Lidl after reading the posts here. I always used Persil before and I am also making sure I use the right dosage as I was definitely being too heavy handed.

I use Woolite for delicates but wonder if there is something cheaper. Used to get Mark's when they did a good offer but they have stopped doing their liquid for delicates and woollens. Have bought the Persil one to try atm.

The Aldi one is pretty good. I usually wash with powder but keep the liquid to use as a pre-wash stain treatment.
