I am such a penny pincher and always buy the cheap laundry detergent. I was wondering what you all do. Do you think that the cheap stuff works just as well as the expensive stuff. I got a free sample of Tide in the mail and used it today to wash my sheets and boy does it smell good!! I never notice my cheap stuff smelling that good. I do use Downy fabric softner, thanks to Angie I think. Anyway, just wondering what you all think.
