Laundry Wars: Who Left Their Wet Clothes in the Machine… Again?! 👕😤
😬 The Problem:
- Someone always leaves clothes in the washing machine
- Your favorite time slot is magically always taken
- Wet clothes lie forgotten on the balcony railing for days
- Laundry detergent is mysteriously “communal” now
✅ The Solutions (That Actually Work):
1. Make a Shared Laundry Schedule
Use Google Sheets or apps like Flatastic to assign laundry slots.
👉 No more surprise loads or laundry pile wars.
2. Set a 90-Minute Rule
If clothes are left in the machine for 90+ minutes after washing is done — it’s fair game to remove and place them neatly in a basket.
(Manners still matter.)
3. DIY Laundry Reminders
Stick a cute note:
“Don’t forget me! 🧦 — Your socks.”
Or set alarms on your phone with savage titles like
“Your flatmates are judging you.”
4. Bring Your Own Detergent (BYOD)
Just like Wi-Fi passwords, everyone should have their own detergent stash.
Label it. Hide it. Guard it like Maggi in a PG kitchen.
5. Install a Fold & Flex Zone (Optional but Life-Changing)
Create a laundry corner with:
- Basket for dry clothes
- Small folding table
- Hooks or clip hangers
This keeps the hall from looking like a local bazaar.
Final Tip: Make It Fun
Why not turn laundry day into a flat challenge?
🏆 Who folds the fastest? Who forgets the least?
Winner gets the clean couch spot and a cookie.
