I do recall that when P&G introduced Era liquid, that came with a pump bottle and was advertised so that you could pump directly into the washer. I don't remember Wisk in a pump bottle but that could be a regional thing. Long as they are kept dry and cool can last a good while in storage. Happy thing is powder detergents have a longer shelf life than liquids. Those are usual places where P&G offloads stock that didn't sell or otherwise in surplus to requirements. Have two containers of Tide "F&G" liquid need to finish so that's me for you.Īnyone truly interested in getting their mitts on Tide "F&G" powder should hunt at out of the way places such as discount or job lot stores. Quite honestly have enough detergents to last duration (much of it likely will become part of my estate *LOL*). But we're talking about things going by pallet load which is just not going to happen. Have seen cases of job lot Tide powder "F&G" at auction sites over past year or so. In USA where top loaders of all sorts are still selling cold water washing may present issues if "tap cold" is just that during certain times of year in various areas of country. Move towards ever cooler (to downright cold) water temps for wash means formulating powders that will work at such times must be updated. All in aid of various gel, liquid and pods formats I suppose. P&G has been steadily culling powder offerings of laundry and dishwasher detergents for some time now. Fortunately my sister doesn't lead a really high soil lifestyle so the All should work well enough for her. Oh, well, I guess if I need a "free" powder, it's back to All Free and Clear. I probably should check on Tide with Bleach Powder and start stocking up before that goes away also. There are innumerable versions of Tide in both liquids and pods with a few new ones recently introduced (a "light" scent in liquid and pods and something like Seaside Fresh liquid) but I guess no one uses powders anymore or at least not enough to continue their production Or maybe P&G is using their muscle to force everyone to purchase what they want us to buy. Yet the website still shows it in the product lineup. The only place I could find it was at Amazon for something like $69.00 for a 68 load size box - not happening. So I called our dear friends at P&G and they confirmed that the powder has been discontinued - but of course still available in liquid and pod formats. Have been trying to replenish my supply of Tide Free and Gentle Powder for a few weeks but wasn't able to find it at any WalMart or Target, and even on line.
