I’m convinced that red socks were put on this earth to haunt me. No matter how diligent I am, they end up in the wrong load. The kids are good at sorting laundry using baskets from Ikea, but this is for darks and lights. The reds seem to end up in the leg of their pants or wrapped up in a towel. How? No idea. Like I said, they’re possessed. Straight from hell I tell you! It’s like they’re mocking me!

My youngest has to have the polka-dotted or striped neon versions, while my oldest is content with solids. She’s not so much into the day-glo colors as she is traditional ones, but red is her favorite.

There are no photos on record, so here is a professional recreation of what it looked like!

But you get the idea – we’ve all had the surprise when we open the laundry to find a shirt that has turned pink, blue jeans that are a little purple or even those same jeans bleeding onto everything else.

I was in Walmart the other day and noticed a new product in the laundry detergent aisle. Now I’ve seen all those “color-safe bleaches” and detergent-and-softeners in one bottle, but never one that claimed I could just do a load of laundry without sorting!

I’m all about technology, so I read a little further. It turns out Purex® is using a new “Anti-Color-Transfer Technology” which traps loose dyes in the wash and doesn’t let them settle onto other fabrics. This means no sorting and no bleeding stains! Of course there’s a catch…there’s always a catch…

“Purex® No Sort™ detergent is packed with innovation, but it can’t perform miracles, so please follow these words of advice:  wash strongly colored fabrics or new pieces of clothing, especially jeans, separately at least 5 times before doing a mixed color load with Purex® No Sort™ detergent.”

So it won’t absolve me of my laundry-day sins, but it will protect me from the coveting ways of our colored garments.

  1. HAHa. I agree red socks, red cake icing, red crayons.. they are all evil. I like the idea of not sorting laundry they kids don’t sort anyway so it would help when doing theirs.

  2. I had no idea about this!! Totally awesome. One of the things I always feel like I DON’T have time for is sorting laundry before it goes into the washing machine… it’s bad enough you have to sort/fold after! 😉

  3. I love the way this page is written and illustrated. It made for a fun read. I am bad about sorting my laundry as I am so cheap not to make full loads every time, so this looks like a great product for me

  4. Hate when a red colored item sneaks into the laundry. However, I was washing red sneakers and they shouldn’t give off dye but they did, even tho they were washed once before. Now have pink all over. lol
    Thanks for sharing:)

  5. We have all been there a time or two. I remember when I accidentally turned all my husbands underwear pink. I thought it was hysterical. He was not impressed at all. I have got to try this and see if it helps my kids to not stain things.

  6. my daughter will not wear white socks at all, they all have to be crazy ones. There have been so many times where i messed up the laundry

  7. I’ve totally done that before too! I only sort the adults from the kids clothes now though. Hope it doesn’t happen again, yikes!

  8. I remember growing up, my mom was terrible about sorting our laundry. I had many white shirts turn pink. She was also really bad with bleach, too. It made for some interesting looks.

  9. The lone rebel red sock. 🙂

    I’ve tinged laundry pink with red before, but it’s been awhile. 😉

    Recently we had a crayon episode that left my husband not so very happy.

  10. Ah, yes. The pink garments of doom. I have been there, friend, and it’s ALWAYS something for my husband, or a garment that’s important that gets the dreaded color switch. I really like the thought Purex put into this, and will have to check it out!

  11. I love Purex products. They generally do a good job at a reasonable cost. I haven’t tried this particular formulation yet–thanks for the review.

  12. Before I scrolled down and saw the entire top picture I though, “Man, those looks like socks in hell,” And sure enough they were, lol. 😀
