Of course we do Fiona, but if we didn't the companies wouldn't be able to make nearly as much profit.
I am also trying out supermarkets own laundry gel . I do tend to stock up on brand name ones when they are at half price but thought I would try the supermarket ones- it could save a small fortune- if it works.
I would be wary about supermarkets own washing powder as my daughter used it for some time and was told that it was that which had caused her washing machine to break down.
I don't use powder- I use the gel. But what was the reason for that Aslemma?
The engineer who came out to repair it said it had blocked the machine and was apparently a fairly common problem.
thanks Aslemma
If you are using all-in-one dishwasher tablets you shouldn't use rinse aid. We had an engineer out to our dishwasher at one time and the first question he asked was what we used to wash the dishes. Apparently if you use all-in-ones along with a separate rinse aid it can wreck your machine.
goodness- I never knew that. It's certainly not what Finish says-" even on top of your multi benefit tablets."
we got Morrison's own brand (very cheap) and they work just as good as the Finish ones previously used.
Good to know which ones work. I have tried tesco dishwasher tabs and they were ok for a quick wash but I would say not great for things like pans.
I recently bought 360 Finish classic powerball tablets for £51 including postage on Amazon. Worked out at 14p per tablet. Currently out of stock.
Home Bargains regularly has the big pack of Fairy gel capsules (I think it has 96 in it) for £7.99.
