The mystery of the missing socks

How often do you miss a sock after doing the laundry?

Isn’t it the most annoying thing EVER?

Like, where the heck do they go?

In my case, I cannot count how many hours and brain cells, I have lost in my life looking for missing socks.

And I am not even going to get into the financial aspect of this because I would need a glass of champagne for that, and I can’t get one right now!

Anyway…

One day, after once again losing one of my son’s socks to this unresolved mystery of mankind, I had one of those genius ideas of mine, that earned me my Queen Of Life Hacks title.

I put it into practice and I have not chased socks since then. Not a single time.

Bye bye missing socks headaches. Hello stress-free laundry days.

So, here comes my life hack against missing socks

I am going to share this laundry life hack with you, and I want you to forward it to everyone you know that wears socks and has a washing machine, specially if they have kids. They need to know!

Here we go.

You probably know about washing bags.

If not, let me google that for you. (I know, I already used that in previous blog posts, but you know: YOLO!)

A washing bags exclusively for those socks IN your laundry basket.

At the end of the day, I directly put my socks in that washing bag.

When I want to actually do the laundry, I just put the washing bag in the washing machine.

Those socks cannot escape anymore, can they?

When the laundry is done, I just need to take the bag out and all the socks that came into the machine also come out of it.

ALL. OF. THEM.

MOUHA. HA. HA. HA.

So, to save yourself money, a lot of time and a huge amount of brain cells, try putting a socks-washing-bag directly in your laundry bag.

Until next time,
