The Missing Sock Dilemma Resolved?

February 11th 2007   Lifestyle   1 comment

I can’t remember where I originally picked up this idea but I always considered it to be a very useful de-cluttering tip so I thought I would share it with you all (I’ve already posted about the reward card key ring so maybe this can be the start of a series covering mini lifehacking tips). If you are anything like me you are always losing socks having your socks lost by whoever washes your clothes that day, and then struggling to match them up. One option is to have an incredibly strict laundry routine to keep all your socks together and accounted for, but that is tedious and time consuming. Instead, what I suggest is that you buy plain black socks (or another neutral color) in bulk. That way you can mix them up or lose a few and it’s never an issue because they are all the same. And let’s face it, the color and style of your socks is hardly a priority in the fashion stakes.

I have done this for the last twenty years and can tell you it works. This year however, I have become somewhat extravagant and gone for dark blue socks!
