Thanks for this link. Very fascinating. Definitely want to try the spa soak thing.

I thought Tide Pods was the end-all for laundry cleaning. My wife and I are not fans of all the plastic packaging but it's simple and works well.

We've been waiting for the new Tide EVO, detergent. This has plastic free packaging from what I've seen.

UPDATE I see Tide EVO is now in stock at our local stores.
