Frequently asked

How do I calculate the cost per load of laundry detergent?

Divide the pack price by the loads (printed on the label). Across the 44 laundry detergent listings we track the median is $0.23 per load and the cheapest is $0.080 per load — so anything at or below $0.19 per load is a genuinely good price.

What is a good price per load for laundry detergent?

$0.19 per load or less. That is the 25th percentile of the 44 live listings we track: cheaper than three quarters of the market. The median sits at $0.23 and anything above $0.29 per load means you are overpaying.

How much do laundry detergent cost per month?

At 5 loads a week, the median price works out to about $5 a month, or $60 a year. Buying at the cheapest price we track instead would cost $2 a month — a saving of $38 a year.
