1 Container of Name Brand Fabric Softener
4 Inexpensive sponges, cut in half

Pour entire container of softener into a 5 gallon bucket. Fill empty softener container with water twice. (2 parts water to 1 part softener) Add sponges to softener/water mixture. When ready to use wring out extra mixture from one sponge and add to the dryer as you would a dryer sheet.

Bumping this thread b/c it just needs to be bumped!
Frugal is my middle name and recently decided to do my own laundry detergent.
Which registers aprox 18 for all the ingredients and
lasts a little over 3 months. Sometimes, 4 months.

I got to thinking about the cost of the dinner I made tonight.

One can of seasoned black eyed peas was .75..I used a third

A bag of rice was 1.29...I used a third

A half can of green beans I had leftover was .70

I made dinner for under 5 bucks...and had leftovers...not bad
