Out of laundry soap will OxiClean by it's self work ?

My three white uniform shirts are dirty.  I'm currently out laundry soap and I don't get paid until Friday. I'm wondering OxiClean by itself will it work to get the shirts cleaned.  

Update:

I will let the shirts soak 2 to 3 hours like I normally do.

    You can use straight shampoo to wash with in a pinch.

    You can also use Dish Soap too.

    Just be careful HOW MUCH you use - might take a long while to rinse out if you use too much.

    I am assuming you are using a top loader?

    If you use a front loader, use 1/4 of what you would use to wash your hair or dishes.

    Not really.

    Do you have any Borax? That's one of the main ingredients of laundry detergent.

    That mixed with finely shaved bar soap and washing soda is an excellent DIY laundry detergent.

    Dish soap at a push, but it will froth like crazy.

    nope.

    but ANY soap will work

    A tablespoon or 2 of dish washing soap or hand soap will work just fine.
