Automatic Dishwasher Detergent

Ok. We all know that not only are most commercially recommended household cleaners great for burning holes in our fashionable wallets, but they are also laden with toxins that irritate our allergies and deplete our immune systems. Soooo, one day I decided that enough was enough! I embarked upon a lengthy quest to find products that were as safe and natural as possible, and at the same time would give my 'fashionable wallet' a break!
After playing Mad Scientist in my kitchen for a few months, I have finally struck gold!
I had been paying 31cents per load to wash my dishes in the dishwasher. That may not seem like much money, and I don't open the dishwasher and play around in the toxic suds or anything, but nevertheless, 2 loads a day, 6 days a week = a whopping $193.44 annually! That amount of money to me = the new dinnerware set I've had my eye on, a new outfit, and a refurbished 'fashionable wallet'!
So you know, I currently pay 8 cents per load for sparkling clean dishes! I'm saving $143.52 annually!
Here is the recipe:
3 cups 20 Mule Team Borax
3 cups Arm & Hammer Baking Soda
2 cups Table Salt
Shake it all together.
Use 1/4 cup per load.
Makes 32 loads!
*Tip for shine - Put white distilled vinegar in the rinse compartment!
Happy Mixing!
Please share your elation with me!!!
