Not Good...

I was washing some new clothes over the weekend and obviously forgot to remove the price tags before I washed them...

 See all those lovely little pieces of gray, white, and red...yep that would be price tag paper...

 In case you are wondering how to remove said objects from your washer - here is my solution.  The clothes can go straight in the dryer - it will pull out the paper for you.  To clean the washer, you have two options.  Option A, boring - pick it out by hand.  Option B, inner-kid thriller - fill the washer up with a couple of inches of water (it was a small load so all the paper was at the bottom), and let the spin cycle run for about 10 seconds, throw open the lid, stick a slotted spoon in the gap between the spinner and the wall and watch it collect on the spoon...repeat this process until it is all gone.  Modification - create your own spin cycle (then it doesn't drain the water).

Yes, I went with option b - and had a great time cleaning up my mess.
