Isn't this credit crunch great? All of a sudden it's cool to be frugal!
I read in a magazine that washing soda is a substitute for expensive washing powder. I have to confess I was a bit sceptical but I had a look in the supermarket and, since it was only 68p a kilo, I thought I'd give it a go. And it works!
I use two scoops in a load - the scoop is off a cough medecine bottle, so not very big - and the washing is clean. Even whites!
Cheap and environmentally friendly - can't say better than that, eh!

I never thought about that to be honest. I assume the new fangled stuff is v expensive and although it maybe slightly better, isn't really all its cracked up to be. I'm going to do a price comparison now.
