If you have 5 minutes and are interested in saving a few dollars, you simply have to make this detergent. Not that I would ever tell you what you have to do, but what do you have to lose? For less that 1 penny a load, you can feel so darn smart that you have created a useful product for your home and have many more dollars back in your wallet. Who could say no to that?
Homemade Dishwasher Detergent
2 cups Borax
2 cups Washing Soda
4 packets of sugar free lemonade Kool-Aid
Mix all ingredients together. Pour into a container. It could be an empty detergent box, a yogurt container, or a beautiful glass jar as I did. This is a 3 quart jar to give you some idea of the size of the container you will need.
***To use: Sprinkle 1 Tbs. in the pre-wash cup and 1 Tbs. in the main wash***
There are many different variations for dishwasher detergent on the internet, but I tend to be an impatient prepper and I like immediate results whenever possible. I also like the idea that the Cascade company may be calling me because their sales have dipped and they want my family back. Sorry- we aren't coming back! We are one step closer to independence and getting closer all the time!!!
Enjoy~
