    The price of the eco-friendly detergent they’re advertising is way too high to justify (17x the cost of my store brand). It’s cool to know that a more powerful powder is possible, though.

      I was so disappointed to see how expensive it is. I want to buy, I was prepared for it to be more expensive, and supporting charity is great. But they can’t make it only say 3x the cost of competitors and still donate some profits to charity?

      Have to agree, it’s cool that they donate 100% of their profits, but I can’t really justify the cost of that stuff compared to bog standard cascade powder.

        Technology connections is the reason I buy basic powder. I got a small little countertop dishwasher, and it with the cheap powder gets my dishes so fucking clean it’s insane! Had a badly burnt pan that came out looking factory fresh.

          I can’t even buy powdered detergent around home. I’ve tried about 20 stores now.

          I ended up getting some Nellie’s cubes, but honestly they kind of seem to suck.

            Walmart is where we get ours, but normal grocery stores don’t tend to keep it, although I live in a generally more upscale area.

              tbh I haven’t tried Walmart, as I’d prefer to not step foot in there

              I’m surprised the dollar store across from it doesn’t even have powdered detergent though. not even a little bit. just small packs of sacs.

                I’m with you, that’s the only reason we go there and it’s specifically for that. When we buy it, we buy quite a few boxes so we don’t have to go back.
