Just use plain water. The detergent actually makes very little difference. See: http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a4_007b.html

Is it that important to wash the clothes now? Wait until tomorrow and go buy some more.

a very small amount of dish soap? Better to short the clotes on soap than have that episode of 'The Brady Bunch' and many other sitcoms in your laundry room.

Don't use washing up liquid, whatever you decide, not unless you want to be mopping suds up. I think I'd prewash and wash. If you really feel you want detergent you could handwash with washing up liquid and rinse and spin in the washer.

Shampoo! Use cheap stuff, like suave. I've done it before, just don't do a monstrous load or there will be bubbles everywhere. Smells pretty, too. :o)

When I was single, I used to wash all my shirts by hand using Palmolive Dish Washing Liquid. If the clothes are 100% cotton, they will last longer and will stay better looking if you do them by hand using dish washing liquid, or maybe Woolite. I read on Consumer's Report that Palmolive is as good as Woolite, but a lot cheaper.

If you have plain soap (not deodarent)shave some of it with a veggie peeler into a cup of hot water. It will sort of dissolve. Then add that to your washer along with 2 tablespoons of baking soda. A big glug of vinegar works, too and helps keep the colors bright in clothes.
