Laundry detergent pods are another one
And fabric softener ruins your clothes over time
Get that hypoallergenic laundry soap with no additives, it's usually better for your clothes as they keep the extras to a minimum
I just buy the giant free and clear liquid detergent from Costco. I've got a thing of scent beads, too, but I only use that on my towels and sheets because I like them to smell nice.
It's important to note that when you buy liquid detergent (or liquid anything in most cases) you're paying for both product and water. In most cases buying powder instead can lead to a lower 'cost per load'. At Costco I have to admit the difference is only ~$0.01-$0.02 per load, so it equates to $8 over a few months anyway.
That small value delta could ostensibly be argued as convenience fee but I still order powder on principal.
