Laundry?????

Do you actually wash them the way they are supposed to be done? LIke colds and warms darks, colors, and whites?

For me I have my own technique I wash all of dh and my work clothes together then the kids stuff together and towels thats what I call seperating

I usually seperate lights from darks and do the towels seperately.

I seperate because otherwise I get towel fuzzies on blacks, or my whites turn pink or blue...

I am anal and wash most things on cold except for undies and towels and blankets. Those need to eb washe don at elast warm to kill germs.

I seperate into darks, colors, and whites. I also do sheets seperately as well as my work pants. I also wash my button down shirts seperate, too.

I don't seperate a thing

I wash everything together (darks, whites, towels) on warm. If it has bever been washed before and its a dark color then I will wash it separate- but I live in an apt and it's $2 to wash and $2 to dry- so I try and shove as much crap into each load as I can!!

We send ours out... Once I have a house with my own washer and dryer I will be able to answer this!!!

Re: Laundry?????

I separate FROM my laundry to drop it off at the laundry mat and have it done. Does that count as separating?

When I lived at my Dad's, I did everything together. So bad, I know...

I do msot things together... except i will separate delicate items (certain tops, bras, etc. )

I will mix darks and whites as long as the darks have been washed before and i know they won't run.

I separate lights and darks with the correct temp. I tired mixing once and lets just say it didn't work out.

I separate lights and darks...but I wash everything in cold regardless of what the label says. I do that to conserve energy.

Me too and the towels go in the same load as our sheets. I typically wash with warm H20, with the exception of Scott's uniform which gets perm press. I like doing laundry I find it calming and I the smell of fabric softner.
