>Prices for Tide seem to be all over the place. I was reminded of that yesterday when I got my most recent detergent (a bottle of liquid Tide). I'm not 100% sure--I haven't carefully checked prices--but I'm thinking their daily price is higher than my regular store's price, and the sale price...

I'm doing a load of laundry tonight using some new detergent. (Back to liquid, thanks to a sale.) But...I thought it might be interesting to let the clothes agitate a bit in warm water with no detergent, first. Just to see if there was much detergent residue left from the powdered Tide that...

I remember this topic, and I recall that Tide.com didn't seem to have information on Studio by Tide. It now appears they've updated their site. There are two types of Studio by Tide listed. Studio by Tide Darks & Colors: https://tide.com/en-us/shop/type/liquid/studio-by-tide-darks-and-colors...

I almost never ate school lunches. (Actually, it happened only once in junior high when considering standard cafeteria lunch IIRC.) But I can remember the smell of the cooking in the elementary school cafeteria (in particular). It was not appealing; however, it was probably solidly in line with...

Not school food, but school related... I didn't think of this at the time as far as I can recall, but at the time I could have made an argument for my afternoon snack, simply because it meant I was Done and Finished with school for the day. Well, I wasn't totally done, thanks to the "joys" of...

>it would take temperatures far higher than anyone doing the washing up could withstand to get anywhere near "disinfection". You mean not everyone has special asbestos gloves for washing dishes in really hot water? LOL

I can't remember where the glasses were made. I'll have to go back and check next time I'm near that store. But I don't recall getting a feeling that the text on the box was written by someone who had a poor grasp of English.

I wandered through a store earlier and saw some wine glasses. These glasses actually had care instructions that said the glasses should be washed in cold water. Let me repeat: wash wine glasses in cold water. My immediate reaction: yuck! I felt almost as disgusted as I had a few minutes before...

I'm guessing that if you haven't used it in over a decade that you likely will never use it again. Unless it ends up being one of those things you need for the first time in ages the day after you get rid of it. LOL I know there is enough demand for faxes that there are still places where one...

I'm seriously low income, and my grocery budget is tight. So keeping things cheap is day to day necessity at Lord Kenmore's manor, not just a few meals a week. Most of my tactics have been mentioned above. Plus they may be obvious. Still, perhaps they will be of value to someone... I don't...

>Unlike in Europe P&G doesn't have a "colors" version of Tide with Bleach. I can't say this for sure...but I have to think that any sort of "colors" detergent version would be, at best, a niche product in the US. I think most people want just one detergent sitting on the shelf. Indeed, most...

>Now can anyone please explain why the "smartlable" ingredients list of Tide Original powder is exactly on par with Tide with Bleach powder ? I've speculated that the difference might be in the amounts of individual ingredients. There might be more bleach-related ingredients in TWB than...

It seems like laundry detergents are now increasingly "universal" detergents that can supposedly be used in any washer, rather than separate formulas that are intended for--and only for--one type of washer (e.g., a formula only for a conventional top load washer). Even P&G, which has separate HE...

I forgot to mention a few benefits to Tide powdered detergent in the original post. Continuing the numbering from above: 4. The measuring cup is transparent. It's easier for me to be able to accurately measure than many liquid detergents. Some liquids I've used have driven me crazy because the...

> I really want to switch to the unscented version but I can’t find it in anything but the smallest boxes which is a very impractical way to buy detergent for me. And I have the opposite problem: only the larger boxes available! One thing I note, however, that might be an issue in your case...

found out after a few months she re-gifted the stuff again I have the vision of that box of Tide making the rounds like an unwanted fruitcake! LOL

>Find Persil and other powdered detergents from Europe create less froth, and are easier rinsing than Tide. I can't comment, never having used European powdered detergent. [Lord Kenmore gently sobs, as he ponders this gaping hole in his laundry life.] But as I think of it, I do have a sense...

I only use powder on my towels I'm honestly tempted--really tempted--to try to continue keeping powder detergent around for towels... It's problematic because, as I said before, liquids have better deals/availability. But towels are where I most see the better rinsability. Liquids work for...

I have to admit I've been curious about the Tide powder with bleach. I've read more than one positive comment here. And I also note that there is an unscented Tide powder, too. But those versions are only available in big boxes in my area, at least as far as I know. Of course, I suppose one...

Historically, I've preferred powder detergents. I cracked here that if powder was good enough for my mother's Kenmore, it's good enough for the BOL WP DD I'm using. But I've shifted to liquids in recent history for the simple reason that there are more choices on the market, and a better shot of...
