Drastically Reduce How Much Washing Powder You Use

Have you ever considered just how much washing powder or liquid you use when washing clothes. Most of us just pour it straight into the washing machine, walk away and leave it to it until that tell tale beep lets us know all is finished. For those of you who completely fill up the drawer with washing powder or liquid just think whether all that is really needed to wash those clothes. The same goes for fabric conditioner if you use it. If the washing smells of a really strong artificial odour when you take it out them chances are you could save a lot of money by cutting back on how much you use.

Try reducing by a third or a even a half and see what the results are. Most people's clothes aren't that dirty, they have just been worn once so may be a little sweaty, that's all. If you are line drying your clothes, and you should be if you want to save money, you will also benefit from the bleaching quality of the sun and the freshening up that a breeze brings. Makes you wonder why you want to use highly perfumed liquids and powders when you are going to get rid of that odour on the breeze. Cleaning products can make up a sizeable proportion of our weekly budgets so it makes sense to cut down where you can and when there is no discernible difference in the end product.
