Let's talk about laundry {an easy tip}

This might be a no-brainer and you might already do this but my laundry tip for today is to use this...


I have the big 13.5 lb bag from Sam's Club in my basement and I use about a cup in every load of laundry.

And guess what? It works so well to keep my laundry fresh. I'll admit to you that sometimes my shirts were coming out of the laundry smelling not so fresh. Yeah, I just admitted THAT on my blog. The baking soda has done the trick. All of my laundry comes out smelling fresh, especially towels. Who wants to wipe off your face on a "clean" towel only to find it smells not so fresh? Even if your clean towels look like this...

Image found on Google.

they still might not smell that fresh. Trust me.

You may think this is an obvious tip and you may have been doing it for years but I just discovered the magic of baking soda a few months ago. I know, duh.

So ... do you use baking soda in your laundry?

I use baking soda for everything! Buy it in big bags! My mom has really BAD underarm smelly issues (has her whole life.) Nothing worked till a elderly lady told her to mix a little baking soda with water and use that. She no longer has issues! The stuff is amazing, I couldn't agree more with you!
Have a great weekend!

I haven't ever tried the baking soda. I like to use Biz ... I bet it works about the same. Gets clothes cleaner and whiter. And who doesn't LOVE their clothes cleaner and whiter!?!?!?! Have a great weekend!

In Aus it is called Bi-carbsoda... and yes it is magic in the wash, but for so many other things around the home...
Well done .. :))
