Anyone remember the laundry detergent tablets?

[GingerSnaps]

They were easy to use because you didn't have to measure how much detergent to put in. I have been looking everywhere for a store that sells them.

The brand name escapes me. They were very common in Laundromat vending machines.

"Salvo", but I haven't see them on well ovet 20 years.

6. Tide was still selling them last year

Salvo sounds like something that my Mom used when I was a kid.

3. Where did you purchase them at?

I know that they make them for dishwashers but I can't find them for clothing.

Several of the name brands had them out but I cant find them anymore.

7. Know what I miss?

I forget who made them. They were pre-measured (like the tablets) but were in powder form, sewn up like a tea bag. You threw one in for a standard load, two for an extra large load.

Then, when you took your clothes out of the washer, the leftover empty pouch became your fabric softener sheet for the drier.

Really nice. Helped me get adjusted when learning to do my own laundry in college.
