Smelly clothes
Hi everyone,
I am in need of help. My husband and I were married three weeks ago. My family always used a detergent and fabric softener. But he's family only used powder detergent. I've gone to doing laundry his way because it's cheaper. But now our clothes are starting to smell bad. Mainly the whites. Idk of we should get rid of them and buy new ones. Or if we should get fabric softener idk if that would help. Please help I'm really tired of our clothes smelling really bad.
Thanks.
Kate

Clean your washing machine with vinegar and then bleach (two loads, both hot water). You can also buy washing machine cleaner, if you prefer.
I recently started making my own detergent to save money and my clothes smell really good now (I was using cheap stuff before). Vinegar can be used in place of fabric softener, also.
I would try cleaning your washer with a washer cleaner or vinegar and bleach. I started using borax in my laundry as a laundry booster. But, I have also used white vinegar in the past to help with getting your clothes cleaner. I have seen some good homemade laundry detergent recipes that I really want to try, but just haven't.
But, I was also a bargain shopper for laundry detergent, but nothing was as good as what my mom always used, so I went back to using what she used, even when my husband wanted to get the stuff he used, I just refused to change, because of my experience in the past with laundry soaps.
