Advantages: They make your clother smell great look great and have a great result on your whites Disadvantages: expensive but worth it
...they had those fabulous new Ariel Liqui-Tabs on special offer 2 boxes for £5. How many did I buy? Four boxes just for the sheer sake that I have been thinking these things look great and seem so simple to use!
So for a cheap £2.50 I get 12 tabs to do my washing one for every wash! So that’s 12 washes at roughly 21p plus electric and water so not to bad to start with, now when they are not on special offer they are £3.89 per box of 12 working out ... ...The tablets are from the Ariel range of products produced by Procter & Gamble UK. Each tab contains 50ml of concentrated Ariel Liquid, so no need to measure, no mess and no need for a net. You place the tabs into the drum of your washing machine before any wash goes in, once the wash has started and water hits the tab the coating dissolves leaving you with nothing but clean fresh laundry! What more can any budding house person ask for?

...am talking of course about Ariel Liquitabs.
I know you will think:
Typical Bloke,
Idiot,
fool etc, etc, but, this happens to be true:
My washing machine is possessed by unknown forces, no wait, it really is true.
I load it with washing, close the door, switch on the socket, press the buttons (there is loads of them and not really sure what I am doing) and switch on.
I have already placed the soap powder in the drawer compartment and it is ... ...the water goes down the other compartment! Next time I place soap powder in the other compartmnent and again the machine changes it's mind and pours water down the other compartment I was using before! See daft machine!

Now though, I have found a new weapon! Liquitabs! by Ariel! The force behind washing!!!

Advantages: Very convenient, no mess, good smell Disadvantages: A little expensive
...it's a new product called Ariel Liqui-tabs, and as the name suggests, they are tablets of liquid! Not just any old liquid mind, liquid detergent for washing your clothes. I know that might seem a bit messy, I mean it's OK for powder, but a liquid tablet sounds somewhat slimey, but the liquid is sealed inside a little plastic wrapper, so it doesn't dribble everywhere when you open the box! The main problem with using washing powder is that it gets ... ...over your hands. Ariel Liqui-tabs get round this problem. Basically, they are a pre-measured, 50ml amount of Ariel liquid sealed into a small water-soluble sachet. All you have to do when washing your clothes is put one of these into the drum, and voila, clean clothes an hour or so later, no mess, no fuss, no caustic powder on your hands! Brilliant. But I hear you cry, how can you get your clothes clean using liquid sealed into a plastic sachet. ...

Liqui-tabs are little plastic pillows filled with liquid for your washer.

People that use tablets and powder would know that the draw ... ...in a long time, I used to spill most of it on the floor, or it gets wasted in the draw.
I find using liquid-tabs are more easy to use, and better to use in my opinion, I would not go back to wash tablets, or even powder. With the liquid tabs you don't get waste, you don't get spillage and no residue either. Although they do cost more then your normal wash powder and tablets, which is the down side I guess. There is not a huge difference of washing ...

Advantages: They clean great and are easy to use Disadvantages: They are very expensive
...today I decided to try ariel liquitabs. The thing with powder tablets is they come wrapped in packets of 2 so a 10 wash pack would have 20 tablets in it. The advantage being not so dirty stuff you can cheat and use one tablet. Ariel liquitabs are individual. A 10 wash pack is what it says 10 pouches. The amount I paid was £1.99 for 10 tabs at Ice-land, normally £2.99 for 10, hence another reason to try them.
I would be great on the tv adverts trying ... ...in yellow across it and Ariel in red and a little pic of a liquitab.
Overall I really love this product but next time I may try ariel liquid as this is expensive. It would be great to use for the mucky boys stuff. If it is on offer again next week I will buy it again.
Please ignore the disinfecting bit on the bottom, havent a clue why that is there.

Advantages: No measuring, No Mess, No clogging up the detergent drawer Disadvantages: Slightly more expensive than some liquids, Bulkier packaging
Ariel Liqui-Tabs are a fairly new product from Proctor & Gamble. Liqui-Tabs contain a concentrated liquid detergent which is encased in a water-soluble film that dissolves completely in the washing machine.

Advantages: Dissolve well Disadvantages: Don't get rid of stains very easily for the price
Having used Ariel Liquitabs before whilst they were on offer, and getting good results, I bought a pack of 20 liquitabs at full price (£4-odd). The main reason I did this was because I've recently received a massive electricity bill and wanted to cut down on bills via my washing machine by washing clothes at 30 degrees.
I have always washed my clothes at 40 degrees and the results have varied quite a lot depending on what washing powder/tablets/liquitabs ... ...30 degree quick wash with Ariel Liquitabs. The blood didn't come out at all and I was quite disappointed as the adverts make it seem as though these tabs get rid of any stain, even on a cool wash. Also, I had a greasy cooking oil stain on a sweater recently and it took two washes to come out with these liquitabs.
On the plus side, I've found that these tabs dissolve really well in a quick, cool wash. Other tablets/powder don't dissolve well in my ...

Enter Ariel Liquitabs to avoid such arduous and stressful wastes of time.
Ariel Liquitabs are, as their name suggests, Ariel washing liquid inside a little sealed plastic pillow. They are about 3 inches by 2 inches, and the liquid inside is green. They're almost cute. They come in a transparent box of either 10 or 20 tablets.

He spotted the offer on Open, part of our interactive TV via Sky Digital. Apparently he couldn’t sleep, so while I was snoring away, he spotted the offer.

I recieved a coupon for a free box of Ariel's new "Liqui-Tabs", and of course I went for it!
The box you get is huge, and will do 12 washes. There's 12 reasonably sized bags of liquid in clear plasticky stuff, that will of course dissolve in the wash, much like a bath pearl, as it says on the box.
