How not to lose a leg of a pair of dirty socks when you keep In the laundry basket

I don't know if it's just me but whenever I put socks in the laundry basket, I lose a leg.

Tired of lossing one leg of your pair of socks? Here is a trick!

Actually it is very common to loss one leg of a pair of sock.

I can't count the number of times I have loss a leg, thrown away or even make my daughter wear socks of different pairs to school.

It was a problem for me because I kept spending money I could have used for something else to buy socks.

Plus it's annoying buying something you know you already bought before.

To me it's just wasting money.

Now social media tells me about buying a 2 compactment laundry basket because with it, I can put socks in one compactment and clothes in the other.

But then this means I will need to buy the basket which is more expensive that the regular once. However, I don't intend on spending money on that either.

Instead of a basket, I got a big plastic that was lying around the house. It was used to tie something I bought but I can't even remember what I had bought which was wrapped in it but that's how I got it. You can also buy it at the market. it's way cheaper than buying a 2compactment laundry basket.

 So here it is, my laundry basket.

So the trick I have been using not to loss socks is;

coupling the dirty sock dirty or clean.

Whenever my daughter comes back home from school,  I would remove and couple it immediately.
