Aldi laundry detergent?
« on: March 02, 2015, 09:43:32 AM »
Anyone use the kind that's in the bottle that looks like Tide?  We've been buying liquid Sun from the commissary, $3.95 for 105 loads, but it is $5.49 at W-mart and it seems like it would make more sense to just pick up something at Aldi even if it's a bit more in cost to avoid a special trip.  I'd love to hear your thoughts.  We don't have allergies to detergents that I'm aware of but overly strong smells can get to me at times.

I wish I had an answer. We have no Aldis around. I have found it is cheaper for me to buy tablets as I go through less detergent. It seems expensive but I don't have to buy as often

I have used it, but not recently.  I would give it a try.

Well, in updating my Subscribe and Save on Amazon today, I found a "green" brand of pods that are lavender-vanilla scented and reasonably-priced.  So I added them on to try.  I am at the point of having kids put in laundry more with me away from home more, and I'm not sure the big jug of budget detergent we are using gets measured consistently, so am thinking even though the pre-measured is more expensive, it may not come out to much more in the long run.  Plus, I'll know they are using the correct amount.  We will try it and see, anyway.  :)

I have used the detergent from Aldi's in the red bottle, and I liked it. Then, one day I noticed they had a few bottles that look like Gain and tried it. So, I have been using it since. i just think the green bottle scent smells better, and always used Gain before Aldi's came along.

I use the blue bottle detergent from Aldi. Is there much difference between the formulas?
