I seem to spend my whole life washing and ironing and wondered if anyone had any good tips. I would love to know how to get the built up roll on deoderant stains out from the underarms of my husbands t shirt.

I do sympathise ..my husband used to have white shirts for work and it was the devils own job to get those marks out.

Hardly anybody (nobody?) male or female needs to use deodorants. Wash thoroughly not long before going to sleep then, using a small lump of cotton wool wet with vinegar of your choice (cheapest is fine), rub over underarm area making sure hairs are coated (or wait at least 12 hours after shaving). If bothered by smell of vinegar in the morning (unlikely) wash again. Repeat procedure once you detect return of odour - normally not until many days later. Result: odourless armpits, unmarked clothing, money in pocket, upset cosmetics/chemical industry and their sales and marketing personnel.
I wash all the jeans inside out..stops them fading .Also anything dark or black.And only use a colour wash liquid. I use that Dreft dark for black things like my son's T shirts and black trousers etchave had good results from it..no fading. I always turn jumpers and fleece stuff inside out too as it stops those horrid bobbly bits you get.
