Hey I’m a dude, too. I’m all about DIY, saving money, etc. etc.
I do all the grocery shopping and most of the laundry at our house and so of course anything I can make myself for cheap is a win in my book. My wife thinks I’m a bit of a cheap@$$ lol 😛
My wife usually just uses commercial stuff for ease and convenience, even if it costs more, has more chemicals, etc. Hopefully I can get her on board with using the laundry sauce stuff. Although if I would stay on top of the laundry then she wouldn’t even have to worry about using it.
