Usually I never, ever buy either basics or value washing powder, and I certainly don't use biological washing powder, but I needed some bio washing powder to do an occasional run through my washing machine as a plumber friend told me it's the best way to keep from mould growing inside the washer (as I use non bio at 30 degrees usually and this isn't enough to kill off the mould and bugs and so on). He said don't waste your money on washing machine cleaner, just do a wash in cheap bio washing powder once a week and that will keep the inside of your washer and the drawer nice and clean and mould free. So, off to Sainsbury's I went to seek out the cheapest bio ...  Read the complete review

Occasionally I buy a shops own brand of wash powder if funds are a little low and this one was one I tried about a year ago for the first time from Sainsbury's, the price was low for a large box and so thought I would try it to see if it worked or if I liked it.

well I was in sainsbury's yesterday and I went down the washing section to get some Lenor. Then I passed the basics range and I pick up a small box of the basics washing powder for 84p, I got home opened the tab on the side and it smells like expensive brand of washing powder. I needed to wash my trainers because I went dog walking in the morning with a friend and they were muddy! I put 100ML of powder set the temprture to 30 I noticed that it was very sudsey. Well the after result was outstanding it was white and I mean white. I will be buying this again because it gets stains out even on 30, if your on a budget this ideal if you like liquid they do it aswell.......

Of late me and my mate have been caravaning and running low on funds on rather a regular basis! Add to that when we got back to her house we had/have stacks of washing to do as we are house clearing at the moment and decided that we would do a car boot of her and her ex's stuff and that stuff included heaps of clothes and bedding and stuff like that. Not smelling too fresh after being stored so long we decided to buy some cheap powder just to freshen all that stuff up plus a load of our clothes that were mucky and covered in dog hair from our holiday! We spotted this priced at 84p (for the smaller of the two boxes on sale) and as it was the cheapest stuff we ...  Read the complete review
