The laundry industry figured out one of the greatest grifts in American retail: sell people a giant bottle that’s mostly water, perfume, and vibes.
Most detergent is designed to smell like “clean” before it actually needs to do much cleaning.
You can make your own with the parts that actually matter:
Washing soda: raises the pH and helps lift grease and grime.
Borax: softens hard water and keeps dirt from redepositing.
Castile soap: breaks surface tension and helps carry the dirt away.
For a 4-person household doing around 300 loads a year:
Commercial detergent: $150 to $180
DIY version: about $6
That’s $140+ saved by refusing to pay luxury prices for scented tap water.
Trust the chemistry, not the marketing. Reclaim your laundry room. 🇺🇸
