For over a year now I've been making my own laundry powder from the following recipe:
2 cups of soap flakes(LUX)
1 cup washing soda
1 cup of borax
Just 2-3 teaspoons does one wash but I have to dissolve it in hot water first as I only ever use cold water in the machine.
Rhonda blogs here about making the laundry liquid and I find this works much better for me.
Nana Gardner is also a recent convert ;)
ETA I now use a cup of bicarb in place of that cup of borax...it's less damaging to the environment and therefore us.
