Success!! I made my own laundry detergent using water, borax, washing soda and a bar of soap! It was very simple to make (it only took 15 minutes!) and it works great! I have a top loading washing machine and used cold water in the wash/rinse cycles. My clothes came out very soft and clean. You can also use this to pretreat stains as well.
Here is the recipe I used from thesimpledollar.com, complete with instructions and photos.
The only thing difficult about it was finding a store that sells Arm & Hammer Washing Soda. I found it at a locally owned grocery store rather than a large chain, but you can always ask your store to order it for you if they carry other Arm & Hammer products.
Now on to fabric softener . . .

How exciting! I'm assuming this works on front loading washers as well, right?
I'm not sure about the front loading washers, but if you check out thesimpledollar.com where the recipe is posted, there are all kinds of questions and comments from people who have tried it. I believe they deal with front loading washers too!
