We recently bought an HE machine, and I hate that I have to buy the special soap. I used to use my $1/1 Tide coupons,
and I'd buy the trial/travel size Tides for $1. Free laundry detergent! I didn't pay a dime for laundry detergent
for five years!

The best I did was two weeks ago. Cub Foods had a "Buy $30 worth of P & G products, get $15 on your next order" deal.
The Tide was $10. So, I just kept buying 30, getting the $15. I ended up paying $5 for a giant-sized HE tide.

It's better than paying full price, but I miss free!

Sorry you didn't get the Sears detergent. Do you have another Sears within 100 miles? If you can find a store that has what
you need, it might be worth it to ask them to hold them for you, and to make the trip. Can you purchase that HE soap online?

If I spot any HE deals, I'll let you know.
