Last of the laundry detergent?

Question

You are doing laundry and pour a capfull of detergent,you do not have enough to make a full cap, so do you but a little water in the bottle to get a little more out?

Answer 1

I do.....I put some of the water that's coming out of the washer in the bottle and shake it, then pour it in the washer.

Answer 2

I use Sun brand. Fresh and Clean scent seems to last the longest and smell the best to me. My hubby's shirts smell good for days. It's very budget friendly, too. I find it at Wal Mart, Family Dollar and Big Lots. We just bought this enormous jug at Big Lots for $5. I am completely disappointed with the Downy fabric softener sheets. I bought the lavender & vanilla scent. The clothes don't even especially smell right out of the dryer. Oh well! Live and learn. I'm just using them up and then I will buy something else.

Answer 3

I just pour it in and throw the bottle out

Answer 4

Sure. Sounds like a good idea. IF I did laundry, that is. But I will be in college, I bet. :P

Answer 5

I always rinse the bottle out, to get the last drop.

Answer 6

yea, I use down to the last drop. I rinse out my fabric softner bottles the same way.

Answer 7

yes, then put the cap back on and turn it upside down to get the rest out...

Answer 8

Yes, there is usually enough residue to make up for it.

Answer 9

Yeah I've don't that a couple of times.

Answer 10

Always, you can get at least one more wash from the remnants
