    What clothes detergent do you use?

    I have been using 'Hurricane' brand of washing liquid for our clothes for years. Simply because it was a fairly cheap brand for what we got. Smelled ok, washes ok. Slowly over the years it has been getting more and more exxy. Recently it has gotten really exxy ($8/$9 for 2L) and less in the bottle (used to be 2.5 L). So I have been looking for something cheaper for a decent amount.
    So what do you use? Is it good for the quality of what you get? Even if it's a powder, I'm willing to try it!! BTW-We have a top loader.

    I use the Planet Ark Aware washing powder. Does a pretty good job, I'm happy with it! It's only about $5-6 for a 1kg box, which is not bad in comparison to some of the more mainstream powders.

    I use either Omo, Radiant or Bio Zet depending on what's on sale because they're the only ones I'm not allergic to.

    I use Bi-Carb for everything except DH's work clothes (coz they like them to smell like washing powder ). I use a tablespoon in my FL so maybe 1 and a half?

    I use the planet ark aware as well. I find it reall good, and lasts ages because you only use 1 tbsp at a time. Best of all it is good for the environment.
