In Reply to: Tide is great - cindy

I'm on well water and that changes the game. I had better luck with bluing in the rinse load of whites than I did bleach which eventually eats holes. plus I had a double coated german shepherd and I had to use a lint brush (sticky kind on a roller) on everything including car seats and tablecloths and furniture. Now I seem to be having a new problem of reaction to whatever they are putting in the newer detergents like the reaction I now have to perfumes. For the $, I usually shop the dollar general before the grocery store. hope that helps someone.
