How to Save money by making your own laundry detergent

Brew laundry detergent that cleans your clothes for just three cents a load -- a fraction of what it costs with store-bought detergent.

You will need:

Water

A bar of soap

A cup of washing soda, also known as sodium bicarbonate

A half a cup of Borax

A box of baking soda

Four cups of soap flakes

A covered glass jar

Tip: If you can't find washing soda, buy sodium bicarbonate from a pool supply store. It's the same thing.
