I DO definitely wash everything I buy though,usually at least 2-4 times before wearing.that's because I worked at Goodwill at one time and after some of the things I saw no way would I put something on and wear it out of the store.Many ppl think clothing is washed and it's not.

What a great point! A bit off topic I guess but can I just say clothes shrinking can really put a damper on my day. I got an extra fine merino sweater (for .75 cents of course) and it somehow ended up in the washer and was subsequently dried. When it came out it was the perfect size for my cat
