Dishwasher tabs are similar to all other consumer goods. There are several ways to buy them;

In specialised shops

Sometimes we can buy dishwasher tabs in the same shop where we bought our dishwasher. As a rule, certain branded articles are advertised there, sometimes also on a sticker attached to the fully integrated dishwasher. We might even be able to get information about the products available here.

However, it is unlikely to be particularly cheap there - we may only get adequate advice.

In the department store/supermarket/drugstore/at the petrol station
Here we get all kinds of products in this area - usually even a special "house brand" that is somewhat cheaper.

Examples:

Aldi Nord/Süd, Lidl, Edeka, Marktkauf, Rewe, Kaisers, Real...etc.

We rarely get advice here.

At petrol stations we must not hope for bargains, in case we get such tabs there at all.

On the internet

We can get bargains in all categories at the various online shops. Even the high-quality brand-name dishwasher tabs are considerably cheaper there. The reason for this is clear; the operators do not need to rent a shop and can calculate accordingly. Even taking shipping costs into account, we can save a lot of money.

In addition, everything is conveniently delivered to our homes and we can often pay on account. This means an additional saving, albeit small, because; we already have our tabs and only have to transfer the amount 14 days after receipt. So we can still dispose of the money and get interest until then.

Ebay

On Ebay, private and commercial sellers sell various dishwasher tabs. Of course, we run the risk of finding older products that still contain harmful phosphates. In addition, the date of manufacture of the tabs may be far back and the effectiveness may have diminished. There are also foreign articles whose packaging description we cannot even read. Sometimes the goods never reach us - returns are also more difficult than in online shops or direct purchases. Ebay always means "buy at your own risk" and whether this is necessary at all with dishwasher tabs remains to be seen.

Conclusion

There are various online retailers on the internet where we can buy cheap dishwasher tabs. If we don't want to buy from Ebay, we can find the cheapest offers at Amazon - even without Prime Time membership. Depending on the manufacturer, we can get 500 tabs for less than 30 euros. The product range in this regard is huge and new offers are added daily.

Another advantage is that we can get information about the product on the same website. On the one hand, there is the manufacturer's product description and on the other hand, there are the customers' reviews. These have already tested the product and have no interest in praising or demonising anything.

Here we get objective reports.

Nevertheless, we can of course generally complain about something via Amazon if it is not in order. That does involve returns, but it should be worth it to us. After all, if we want to exchange something in a shop, we have to go there again. Sending parcels now works smoothly thanks to direct take-away by the postman and we get our receipt immediately as proof.

A little tip

Of course, we ourselves can also describe our experiences after receiving our tabs. This starts with the delivery; was the delivery speedy, how were the tabs packaged, do they deliver what they promise.

• What is their cleaning effect?
• Are we satisfied or not?
• How is the price-performance ratio in general?
• Would we buy these tabs again?
• Did we notice anything special about them?

All these evaluation criteria give us the opportunity to express our displeasure or pleasure with the product and help other consumers to form an opinion. Incidentally, Amazon does not only post positive reviews, but also negative ones. It also happens that we are asked by Amazon to write a corresponding review after our purchase. We should make use of this. It doesn't cost anything and doesn't take much time - sometimes you even get a voucher as a small thank you!

Online, you don't have a salesperson as an advisor and it is precisely this information that takes on this advisory function and helps us in the end and offers valuable inspiration.

We also get dishwasher tabs from well-known manufacturers, such as Finish Quantum, much cheaper on Amazon than elsewhere.

So there is something for everyone. The bargain hunters among us can stock up on cheap tabs in utopian quantities.

But here, too, it's better to buy only once and not ten packages at once. 5000 tabs have to be used first, and we reported on how the tabs fare after a certain storage period.

Comfortingly, we can assure you

Such offers keep coming back at regular intervals and production will certainly not be discontinued so quickly!

By the way, research is always crowned with success. Not only can we find out about the quality of individual products on various comparison portals.

Bargain offers with sources can also be found there regularly.

With a little time, we can replenish our stock of dishwasher tabs in this way and make big savings.

To sum up, there are great deals on dishwasher tabs everywhere. We just have to decide whether we want to go to the shops or order online.

On the internet, of course, the prices are significantly lower - but we do not need the advice of the salesperson. But since all articles are described in detail on the internet anyway and dishwasher tablets do not necessarily require detailed advice, this should not be a knock-out criterion for the internet.

However, despite all the bargain euphoria, there is one thing we should definitely pay attention to:

Quality before quantity

It's no use having 10,000 dishwasher tabs for the price of 1,000 if in the end they don't clean our dishes deep into the pores and maybe even damage our dishwasher.
