Okay recently I got curious about all the different laundry soaps since CVS has and Fry’s recently had laundry soap really cheap and sometimes I can’t justify being a loyal Tide girl. I mean seriously Tide is the most expensive and they only give out $.50 coupons, although I did recently find a $2 off Tide coupon in my Bounty sheets box but still. So anyways, I went to the Coupon Sense boards to ask for some opinions on Xtra laundry soap. There wasn’t a huge response and I guess because like me most never gave it a chance. Well I decided to buy and thought if it doesn’t work out that it could be used for something in due time.

Here is my review of Xtra:

  • Price: A
    I mean come on $1.50 w/no coupon isn’t a bad deal.
  • Scent: C
    It smelled alright before hand but if you’re looking for long lasting scent it left a faint clean smell but nothing to brag about unless you prefer it that way. Even after working in a hot environment it still smelled slightly clean where as my Tide wouldn’t smell so fresh after working.
  • Clean: B
    I have to say it cleaned those untreated deodorant marks completely, something Tide never did if untreated. I’m rather impressed.

Overall I would give Xtra a B- rating as I was impressed with it compared to my Tide. I do wish they had a better variety of scents, I purchased Spring Sunshine as it was the only one in store that appealed to my nose. So if you’re ever on a tight budget and want a cheap and efficient laundry soap I suggest you pick up a bottle Xtra the next time you see it on sale for when times are tight.
