lewelma Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 The worst I have ever done is wash and dry cherry chap-stick with a load of whites! Pink wax all over everything. Ruth in NZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T'smom Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Well, if it makes you feel better, I washed my phone and $100 pedometer on Sunday. And kleenex. As soon as I opened the washer and saw the kleenex......I knew what had happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butter Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Oh, gah! My dad had prostate cancer and as a result of the surgery to remove it he has some minor incontinence. She wears pads all the time and keeps an extra one in his pocket. One of those went through the wash still in his pants pocket. Little super absorbent polymer beads sticking to *everything.* Nasty.

Tina Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I end up doing the kleenex thing regularly. I DO try to check my pockets. sigh. And that pad would really be the pits!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
********* Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Oh, gah! My dad had prostate cancer and as a result of the surgery to remove it he has some minor incontinence. She wears pads all the time and keeps an extra one in his pocket. One of those went through the wash still in his pants pocket. Little super absorbent polymer beads sticking to *everything.* Nasty. Heh. I did that with a DIAPER when the boys were younger. A wet diaper, no less. The little darling was being so good, and put his dirty clothes in the hamper. Well, he scooped up the diaper along with them, and then I threw it all in the wash. That was one BAD laundry day. I've also washed chapstick more times than I care to admit. Oh, and a 9 volt battery made it all the way to the dryer; that one was in dh's pocket. Thankfully I investigated the very loud banging sound it made when I turned the dryer on. Not to mention more candy wrappers, legos, coins, and tissue than any one woman should have to pull out of her laundry machines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G5052 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 We all have allergies, so kleenex in pockets is the norm. As much as I check, it always happens here and there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Hey, if it makes you feel any better, I watched an entire grocery bag of used paper towels with my rags last time. (I clean houses.) I didn't have time to rewash them so I had linty rags while I was trying to dust. Then, dh comes home and is nice and starts the laundry. Without me getting a chance to wash out the washer and dryer. And he washes my favorite sweater. Which had copious amounts of white stuff all over it. Awesome good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
besroma Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Oh no! One of my DSs left a ball point pen in his pants. I didn't know it until I removed the clothes from the dryer.....with the ink dried onto some of my favorite clothes.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done that before with pull-ups. The secret is to NOT put them in the dryer! They don't come off your clothes. You have to add a cup or two of salt to the washer and run it through a cycle again (no detergent). The salt dissolves the beads, and then you can dry them normally.
