Persil Washing Up Liquid

[jennyjoan]

Am just enquiring for a friend - she said she can't get it anywhere. Is it discontinued?

[tiggerblue10]

Or just stick to the word 'inventory'.

Hans - you might be able to identify the manufacturer but it doesn't have to be the same product as the manufacturer's known brand.

[dannyk13]

Ignore my post, apparently they no longer sell it.

I am of an age to remember when washing-up liquid first came out - 1956 I believe. It was called Squezy. The attraction for us boys was that when the bottle was empty you could fill it from the tap and use it as a water pistol.

Fairy was the first in 1950

Bue Peter always used squeezy bottles

I'm also a Fairy Original type of girl.

Judicious :-)

"Squezy makes it easy" was the slogan. The girls she worked with gave a bottle to my wife when she was leaving to get married - I can't think why.

I always use Fairy.

Fairy washed the dishes in our house, right up to the point where I insisted that the wife used my given name and we got a dishwasher.

[ummmm]

Always Fairy for me. I've tried other brands but they aren't as good. It's a false economy. Same with cling film and toilet paper.

Hmmm, what am I missing? I use supermarket brand washing up liquid, foil, cling film, loo paper. All seem fine to me.

I agree with what bhg said at 12.30.,but some manufacturers just put different supermarket labels on their products, rather than alter too much in production lines.

That apart, sometimes a supermarket has two differently priced 'own label' items ( standard and basic) and the cheaper basic is identical to the higher priced one.

Interesting article on matters in the following link :-

I was in Co-op the other day. I needed washing up liquid and decided to get theirs as I seem to remember it being fine. Nooòoo...watery, put some on a dish brush and I'm lucky if it does one mug, no grease cutting. Bought it on Monday...1/4 of the bottle is gone. Fairy when I next go out.
I find aldi and Lidl are good for rubbish bags and cling film. Aldi's actually sticks!

[douglas9401]

The state of your plates is the talk of the steamie though, Cloverjo. :-)

[Bazile]

We use fairy

We find the suds feel more smoother and thicker and not watery - if you know what I mean

Does anyone know what I mean?

[douglas9401]

Like Hugh Grant, Bazile?

[bobbinwales]

I am a Fairy person, always have been.
I knew a Fairy once his name was 'Nuff' Fair(y)nough. Ho Ho.
