Dumb laundry question..

Lets say you have a shirt that is a pattern but has a good amount of white in it.
Do you wash it in whites or wash with color?

I go through this dilemma all the time and it so annoying. Now, if the white is minimal then I put it in with my colored clothes. If their is enough I put it in with the whites and know that the color is gong to fade from the bleach.

I would wash with my color stuff.

I bleach my whites so only 100% white stuff goes in there

I would wash it with colored stuff. I also put one capful of this brightener in every load no matter if it's white or colors. Works wonders!

Re: Dumb laundry question..

I would wash it with lights. I usually have a load of white, a load of lights and then a load of color

Re: Dumb laundry question..

So I bought the Clorox2 and we will see what happens.
I have been doing my own laundry and the families laundry for 15 years and I have had this dilema for 15 years Chat Icon

I have tried Oxy Clean, and really I don't think it does anything for whites or colors.

I usually don't have enough clothes for lights so I only do darks, whites, sheets & towels.

Re: Dumb laundry question..

I would probably throw it in with the whites since I usually tend to have a ton more darks and try to lighten the load.
