I like the purex sheets that have the detergent and softener all together.

I bought some sample packs of them with 3 in a package to put in my hubby's suitcase when he's working out of town. They seemed to work just fine. And were much easier to pack than a gallon jug of detergent.

I use the all free pods and I love them... they dissolve very quickly and now I get more loads for my money as Im always using too much liquid..

Havent used the Tide Pods- ALL was cheaper and is perfume and dye free..

I dont have any children at home anymore and my husband and I dont get our clothes 'dirty' so a lesser expensive detergent works for me ...

Marilyn, I don't get that magazine. Which other detergents do as well as Tide. I have always had better luck getting clothes clean with Tide. I always clip coupons and watch for it to be on sale before buying.

Haven't seen the All Free pods? I do use the All Free liquid, since I have allergies. Costco only had the liquid.

I love the pods for detergent. I bought the Tide Pods at Walmart, didn't check the price though. Just toss and done. No spills, no measuring. I noticed All has pods now too. I quit buying bottles or boxes of detergent when the detergent sheets were available. The sheets are getting hard to find now. I'm glad the pods are here.

Expensive or not - pods are a godsend for disabled and blind people - glad to see they are back
