Separating laundry was invented by Tide to sell more soap. I used to throw all that shite in there in a heap, use hot water, never have a problem. It doesn't matter one bit.

Unless I’m using bleach for whites, I throw everything in together

we may as well not have a hot water connection to our washer, can't recall the last time, or if we have ever even used it

I've always mixed colors and whites and wash in warm water and rinse in cold. Never had a problem.

I believe the only time a garment may bleed color is on the initial wash. I may be mistaken.

You can, but if you want the whites to come really clean, it would be prudent to use bleach, and that is a big no-no with colored clothes.


Soap pods are a hell of a lot cheaper than new clothes.

Yes, but your whites will eventually turn gray.

Absolutely. If you have any concerns about the water being too warm, pour some cold bleach in to cool it down first.

You're welcome.

I guess I'm a heathen, but I throw all my clothes in at the same time, I do not care.
