7. They will catch those stray red socks

that find their way into the white underwear load.

14. I've tried those and I agree!

When I've been a little unsure of something, I've added the Color Catcher sheet and it really did work, absorbed the excess color...

18. Really? How's that work? Oh, wait, this is the Lounge...

4. if the shirts are worth saving...

take it to the next step and dye them a darker color (especially if they are cotton -- man made fabrics don't dye well).

9. There was nothing in the load that really needs to be seen in public

So I washed them again and they came out a little less pink.

10. Doesn't anyone use Clorox® anymore?

or Rit® color remover, found with Rit® dye at your grocery store or pharmacy.
Don't put the stuff in dryer if you haven't already- heat sets stains/dye.

12. I washed them one more time and put them in the drier

It got some of the color out. I think that will do.

Peace

17. My dad did that once with green.

The weird part was that we could never figure out what the green item was.
