TUESDAY, APRIL 30 Red Bluff Alternative to super washing soda I'm sure you've noticed by now that last minute congressional decisions in 2012 resulted in a 2 percent cut in everyone's takehome pay beginning 2013. That hurts! I immediately began thinking where ordinary households could cut the cost of goods and services they're paying for now to make up for the loss of income. You may already know what I'm thinking: laundry detergent. No, really. Laundry detergent! By reducing your per-load cost for detergent from $.35 or more to just $.03, you'll have made a good start in recovering the lost income. I recently wrote about my Homemade Laundry Detergent recipe, including photos and an update at my blog, EverydayCheapskate.com. The ingredients are still the same, but I've come up with a concentrated version: 3/4 cup washing soda, 3/4 cup borax, 3/4 cup Blue Dawn and 1 gallon of hot water. This costs less than $1.50 total, and I use just 1/4 cup of the concentrate per load of laundry in my jumbo capacity HE washer.
