A long time ago, as I was getting ready to get dinner with a friend. I asked her if she could start my dishwasher. It was all loaded and just needed the detergent which was under the sink…well, we got back and the kitchen was flooded and filled with suds and bubbles. Turned out she used the dish soap next to the sink instead of the detergent. Cleaned it up, laughed, and was reminded of the different experiences we all have from people who grow up in more wealthy households.
I ran out of dishwasher detergent one time. I KNEW you can’t use regular soap, but I said if I just use a tiny amount, I’ll rewash later if I have to. It can’t be THAT bad.
No.
No amount is ever the right amount other than none.
I almost always have two boxes of washing powder, when one goes empty I can replace it while using the other. I usually go shopping more often than I use a box of detergent
I did this! So many bubbles. There was a bunch of water too. On the bright side I had very clean linoleum till everything dried up, then the corners in some spots started to curl up at the edges.

“Two is one, one is none.”
It applies to essential household commodities just like it does computer backups.

Funny learning experience.
I also did this as adult when I got my first dishwasher
