WHAT is going on with this?! Can never get the cheap ones but the premium ones are either also all sold out or a ridiculous price

Tonnes in my south London Tesco if that helps!

Saw someone the other day do a couple of drops of washing up liquid and a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda. Not used it myself but perhaps a good cheap alternative?

No problems here, but I stock up at Lidl whenever I'm on holiday, as we don't have a local one. Their all in one tabs are really good, even have dissolvable wrappers.

I've not had a problem, but I get mine on subscription from Smol. I'm sure there were plenty on the shelves when I was lookijng for something else a few days ago though.

Amazon are selling Finish dishwasher tabs - 110 for £13, so 12p/tab. Free delivery if you have prime.

Only once made the mistake of putting washing up liquid in the dishwasher. I was 19, only used a tiny amount, but suds exploded out of the machine. It was like a 1980s foam rave, we had to push it out of the kitchen door with a brush.

I think it’s part and parcel of the supply issues, one week I went to my local Tesco and there were zero loaves of bread. The person I spoke to said they just hadn’t had delivery for bread for days. I went in two days letter and all the bread shelves were full. I think we will have to get used to these feast or famine cycles for a while.

We've had no problems getting them. Where are you shopping?

@ByTheGrace maybe not then 🤣

We always cut ours in half, so we get double the amount.
