Is there any substitute if you have no washing detergeant on hand?

1/4 cup baking soda works great.Is there any substitute if you have no washing detergeant on hand?
Baking soda. It always works. You can use it alone, especially good if you have sensitive skin. Or you can use it in concert with dish washing soap.Is there any substitute if you have no washing detergeant on hand?
you can use a little bit of dishwashing soap...but just a little because it will suds up a lot
Yes. I would use shampoo. It is made to dissolve body oils so it should release the oils that hold dirt and odors in your clothes.
If you are talking the dishes in the sink, then any other soap will do, laundry soap for example. However if you are talking washing clothes, then there is only one, soap used in an automatic dishwasher. Both laundry soap and automatic dishwasher soap are designed without foaming agents, in other words, little to no suds in the washer. Use something like a dishwashing liquid that you use to wash your dishes in the sink and stand by for the sight gag you've seen in the movies where the washing machine overflows with foam. And last, if you have nothing else, toss in some plain old Arm and Hammer baking soda. It isn't a soap actually, but will turn the water alkaline which does help wash laundry.
Sure, any soap will do. In the olden days they used bar soap.
yes;use bubble bath or shower gel,or dish detergent
