Sainsbury's biological powder is very good, costs £2.50 for a 20 wash box and it work wonders! Morrisons bio is great as well, cheaper but is the same stuff since they're all made by McBride, and the only difference is the brand name on the box, the size and the price. Sainsbury's and M&S...

I've made my own before quite a few times. Given it out to people who have had a positive response too. Actually, the last time I made some, I went a step further and made the soap to go in it, mainly because the only 'laundry' type soap you can buy is either household soap (which I don't...

Almat has begun to clump, the majority is flushed out but there is some hard powder around the edges. I thought it was just the water pressure. I don't mind pouring some water in the drawer though as it's excellent stuff. As far as I know Chris, Ariel powder doesn't contain Benzyl Salicylate...

I made homemade Febreze and Air Fresheners with the same formulas, except I put a teaspoon of Baking Soda in both to help neutralise smells and it really does work!

Mannanase The new Surf Sensations has that in also.

Interesting statistics, thank you for those! According to Liam, Persil is the best seller, followed by Bold. People must obviously love that Bold has the scent factor to it, as this is one of the most important thing for quite a lot of the general public when purchasing a detergent. I will say...

Hello, no I didn't use fabric conditioner as this Bold is the newer packaging one so I wanted to see how goo it is, and it has definitely improved from the last time I used it. The stuff I washed is indeed soft, it seems Bold has improved in that aspect.

Tried Bold powder today, the blue one and it really is good! The bedding has come out of the machine clean, stain free, white, soft and smelling really nice! The scent isn't overpowering either, just a light pleasant smell, even though I do have a cold. :))

Ariel powder has a nice smell, quite a bit like the Essential powder. What I've noticed though, is using it with the new look Lenor, at the end of the wash there is very little to no scent of Ariel on the clothes at all, you can only smell the Lenor which is a lot different to using previous...

The UK has Lenor dryer sheets, the Summer Breeze being more common than the Spring Awakening variety. Changed to Lenor from Bounce around 2009 ish. Supermarkets do their own versions which are much better and leave a longer lasting scent, Tesco ones in particular are FAR better than the Lenor...

You're not a bore, you just stick to what you know. :))

Done a few more loads with Ocean Escape and it is rapidly becoming my favourite, it is so lovely, softens really well and smells fresh and clean without an overpowering cloying scent. The Soft Embrace one smells clean, but it's from the pure care range so didn't get that one. Had a sniff of the...

Tesco near me has had them a while but they don't jump out at me at all. The new Lenor Ocean Escape is lovely though, smells really nice and milder than the previous version.

Pearly Peony at Tesco: http://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=294025607 Soft Embrace Lenor seems to be part of the pure care collection...

The Kwikies in town had been there since the 1970's, apparently it was one of the first stores to open and it remained there until Somerfield bought them in 1998 and the store became Somerfield for a time. Then sometime in the early 2000's the store changed back to a Kwik Save (hence why it was...

Definitely aeg! My mum used to go there a lot alongside Somerfield, always recall going in there with the bright yellow walls and the trolley being piled high with special offers. It was actually one of the main supermarkets in town alongside Somerfield, Sainsbury's and a large Iceland, the town...

That's really interesting about the Bold, I haven't had the chance to try it out yet but it definitely has improved by the sounds.

We used to get the Alpine Lenor in Cartons from either Kwik Save or Somerfield, it did used to smell lovely but we never had it often, normally favoured Spring Awakening. It's weird to see Lenor detergent I agree, I fully expected it to be Bold under a different name but surprisingly it's...

That's interesting. Do they smell the same at all? May have to get some of the Lenor detergent as it looks really good.

Wondering actually if Lenor detergents is actually just Bold under another name, except Bold would have softening agents whereas the Lenor probably wouldn't. Would be interesting to try some at some point. It's great seeing some of the adverts and all of the different scents they used to do...
