Night Elf Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I'm out of my regular laundry detergent. I'd rather not go to the store today as I just don't feel great. I have some laundry pods that I got free from the grocery store but I've never used them. I have half a load of darks I have to do today as DH needs his work pants tomorrow. Can I use one pod for half a load? Surely my washer will rinse out the extra detergent, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scholastica Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I would do that. I don't think it's a problem that it's half a load. I'm sure people do it all the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plateau Mama Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I only ever use one pod but you are actually supposed to use multiple pods for a load of laundry. So one pod for 1/2 load will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. We've never used the pods here, so when ds moved out and decided to try them--because he thought it would be easier, tidier than liquid--he was surprised to see he'd need to use 2-3 per load. He's decided the convenience factor isn't worth the price of the pods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassia Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I use one pod all the time for a medium-sized load! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-rap Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Yes, you should be fine. Or if you want, you could always break open the pod, pour it into something else, and do two small loads with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Elf Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 Yes, I actually read the directions and it said for an XL load, the picture looked like the entire tub was filled, you're supposed to use 2 pods. I had no idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
