So, this isn't 100% about the piggies. I was gonna get some more detergent for the goblins, I've been using Persil's non bio and it's great, but at the same time it disappears quickly. I'd ordered a bottle of Ecover's Zero non bio because I could substitute it for myself if needed - my skin's much more picky about these things than it used to be. It likes Ecover, it gets Ecover.

Then Tesco had to substitute it out and they're sending a 1.5l bottle of the lavender and sandalwood instead.

That's the stuff I use, but I can't really use it for the goblins, can I? And I'm torn about keeping it or returning it because I can use it and it'd not go to waste but also I have plenty of it in the cupboard right now. Maybe I need to switch what I use, but I don't want to set my skin off again, ever. Thankfully there's still Persil in the cupboard, I'm just forever paranoid about running out. Gotta keep a bottle spare at all times right? :bal:
 
i think they say not to use scented stuff for the 'goblins'..... if you have plenty then can't you reject it and use the money on something else? i know its a pain....
 
I could and if they had sent literally everything else I probably would, but I'm torn because this is what I use. I'll probably send it back anyway, why couldn't they have subbed for the zero powder instead, lol. I might try an Asda order at the start of next week but unscented non-bio seems much harder to get hold of than it used to be.
 
I used to use Persil non-bio and Ecover - now I just use Ecover zero as I can buy a huge 15l box and that does us all. I wouldn't use anything with a fragrance- I can't for myself either anyway but for piglings def not- it makes me gag whatever it is I'm so sensitive so goodness knows how it would make them feel. Shame old Tesco did that, I'd switch off substitutions as I never got one that I thought, "oh nice, thanks" it's usually, 🤬🤬🤬 I really didn't want that!
 
I mean they also subbed out my small bags of coriander for a large bag, most of the time subs are decent, and when they aren't they're usually the hilarious kind. I can't use any powder at all, doesn't matter the brand or the scent same goes for the compressed tablets if you can even still get those? The pods/liquitabs are a pain too, it's been years since I've seen one that didn't have fabric softener added because again, Ecover's the only softener that doesn't irritate the skin.

I ended up with the lavender and sandalwood one when they were out of what I normally got, and I hate lavender. Love the scent though because to my nose it's mostly sandalwood, lol. Lavender, linen/cotton and lemon are my least favourite fragrances though. Lemon's just awful. "Oh it makes it smell fresh and clean!" No, it makes me want to boke. Every time.
