Congratulations to:

There was always one laundry detergent my mom used. How about your family?
In my house, it was always Tide. When I headed off to college, you bet that Tide followed me. My first apartment, Tide was there. It always solved all my laundry problems……except those disappearing socks. Where do they go to?
Now that I have a family of my own, I turn to Tide Free & Gentle as my first choice. While I do occasionally take advantage of other detergents (free sample, etc), I always turn back to Tide Free & Gentle. Why? My daughter has moderate eczema (not to mention allergies and asthma). I need to do what I can to help her skin heal when it flares up….which has been really bad lately.
Tide Free & Gentle is unscented and dye-free, which is incredibly important to me, as certain things could irritate her skin even more. But one thing I love….. I don’t have to give up any of the Tide stain-fighting abilities that I expect. While that never much mattered while my daughter stayed home, it has been a HUGE help now that she’s in kindergarten.
My daughter has never been what I’d consider messy. BUT, there was one day recently when I picked her up from school. Oh, these white shorts were filthy. I mean filthy. From tiny bits of chocolate (from a few special chocolate covered raisins I gave her) to DIRT from the playground, it was apparent she had a fun day. The clothes never made it past the laundry room. Tide Free & Gentle to the rescue, without using anything else to fight stains.
Looks like I’ll need to stock up for Kindergarten!
NOTE: You can even find Tide Free & Gentle for Coldwater!

The biggest challenge is not having enough clothes of one color to get a full load. Run into that issue with light colored clothes, the beige(s) and greys. It drives me nuts, because I just want to get it over with.

I live in an apartment with a laundry facility in the basement that is opened from 8 am – 10 pm. My toughest laundry issue is timing. With over 200 units in the building, there is a lot of laundry being done every single day. There are 9 washing machines and 6 dryers, which translates to 7 working washers and 4 working dryers (there are always machines that need to be refurbished every day). I tend to do 3 loads per week for my family of 3 so I have staked out which days and time slots have the lowest traffic and also avoid the periods when the machines are being repaired.
Staying on top of it and soccer stains!
My toughest issue is mud and grass stains.

Getting my husband’s clothes clean. He’s a fireman and also works part-time at a feedlot, so it’s either smoke, ground in cow manure or oil and grease from working on equipment!
