Bubble bath for hand wash?

I've seen this suggested a few times over my years on mn, does anyone actually do this? Obviously would decant into a hand wash bottle!

Currently we buy m.groceries.asda.com/#item/910001509591 which is 13.4p per 100ml, would bubble bath work our cheaper? serious penny pinching ATM :(

Also, will it actually get my hands clean or will they just smell nicer?!

I use washing up liquid (ecover) as it doesn't aggravate my eczema.
all liquid soaps are basically just , eh, liquid soaps...

Waitrose bubble bath is lovely and often on offer for £1
Cant tell the difference and it comes in a varietyof smells -there is a nice cinnamony one .

Someone suggested this on here recently. I always get too many toiletries for Xmas/b'days, so have put some in our dispensers - I can't tell the difference and no one has made any comment in the house.

I just refil any old hand soap bottle, and replace if I get a nicer one at Xmas or it breaks. At the moment ive got a radox one in the bathroom and a cussons one in the kitchen. They don't look fancy but they do the job!

I have low standards....

Resurrecting this thread for those of you who are running out of hand wash!

I’ve done this for years. It’s the same ingredient basically. Also this is a good time to use up any old bars of soap as well. You can also use shampoo if you have any spare
