$ Saver for stretching laundry soap!!!

;D Started to leave this section, and just thought of a neat tip to pass on to $ stretch $ that laundry soap. When you open the box, tilt your soap to one side and add in enough baking soda to REALLY fill the box to the top... Mix well as you add it into the regular detergent. As your soap goes down, wait until you get to the half way point and add more again to bring it back up to the original starting point. Had forgotten about this one until today, when I looked in my box and saw how little I had left > with so many loads left to do before I hit Sam's club again! Drat, forgot to do it to this last box, which could have well gone on for 2 more weeks! Oh well, was able to add enough baking soda to keep me going till Friday! Then I will get another HUGE box of baking soda there, and this time I will keep it out in the laundry room so that I will remember to use it! I did scotch tape up the perimeter of the box, in case I had baking needs for it. This time I think I will just buy two of them! GREAT for cat boxes too!

I have done this also. The males in my family don't give a hoot how much they use so I have also written on the top of the box to only use 1/2 a cupful (the one that comes with the soap) and threatened to cut the cup down if they don't. I'm also trying to train them on the dishwasher soap too. I already water down the shampoo and they don't even know!
