DIY Dishwasher Detergent: If I Could Only Use One Hack for Life, This Money-Saving Hack Is It DIY Money
I don’t recall where I saw this. I probably googled “I’m out of dishwasher pods, what can I use instead?” but its value never goes unappreciated. As a busy mom with dirty dishes a constant in my house and as someone who likes to save money, this hack is everything.
I like to shop at the dollar stores because many things are of the same quality as other stores and, in fact, many items are name brands. But one thing I’ve never been able to go cheap on is dishwasher pods. I am a pod snob, if you will. Only the platinum or complete of the best brands would do the job well the first time – until I discovered the DIY hack that changed my life!
Without further ado, here's what I do:
- Drop two small squirts of any liquid dishwashing detergent into the dishwasher detergent depository.
- Add baking soda to fill the remaining space.
BOOM! Sparkling dishes for literal pennies a week.
You’re welcome!
