do you use color safe bleach?

I passed the color safe bleach in the aisle and was thinking how I haven't used it in a very long time. I got to wondering how many of us purchase and use it regularly vs. passing on it.

I don't use bleach at all in my laundry. I found years ago it really eats away at clothes. Good old fashioned Tide along with drying in the sun usually does the trick of getting everything white.

In answer to your question, I pass it by.

I use it when the kids clothes get really dirty, but not in every load.

I pass on it as well!

I never use it and rarely use regular bleach either

Once in a great while I will buy a box, but I really see no difference in the laundry, so I have come to the conclusion that it's a waste of my money. My water is very very soft, and I have to use alot less of detergents etc.

I use it in the powdered form on my whites. I don't use the liquid reg bleach as it yellows my clothes. I always wondered how people keep white clothes white, just something that I've not been good at, lol.

I use it occaissionally but I have box that I've had for months and months.....so not very often I'd say.

I always have a bottle of liquid color safe bleach. One of our cats will occasionally urinate on clothing or towels that she finds on the floor. The only way I have been able to get that smell out is with bleach-- plus I don't feel like it's really clean and urine-free unless I bleach it.
