Laundry: Common Chore or Profitable Business?

We've been doing laundry since about 9am. So far we've found $17 dollars in crisp, unmarked bills, and thats after just three loads. We have to wonder how much money wash and fold laundry services would find, and how much of that they keep.

But on to bigger things: Socks.

We counted 22 socks without a matching pair. No doubt some of these are somewhere in the great laundry livecycle, like in the dryer or hamper. But not all of these socks will find matches [perhaps they should use match.com]. This is why we advocate buying many pairs of the same sock. Interchangeable parts and all.
