    Put Tint Stacking Drawer in Laundry room.

    As soon as you get the socks out of the dryer, put them inmediately in the appropriate drawer.

on 7/12/2009 Don't you wish you could sort of wiggle your nose like I dream of Jeanie did and all the socks would be mated and sorted? Next best thing is Socklab on ebay. The socks snap together on the sides for laundry. Then you unsnap for wearing. They're awesome socks with or without the snaps but I sure love pulling pairs out of the dryer.
