Something red or pink ran in my washing yesterday. I have some underwear and a couple of tops that are now pink, they were once white. Is there anyway or getting the red/pink dye out or are they ruined? They all have other colours on them so I assume I can't bleach them.

Everything that is white can be bleached even though there may be some other colors on them as long as you do not use too much bleach. Follow directions on the bleach bottle for the size of the wash load. Use cold water and bleach. Do not put the clothes in the washer until these have mixed so you don't get holes in your clothes. Once the washer has filled to where you need it, let it start to mix the bleach and water together then add the clothes and let them sit for about a half hour then finish running the wash cycle. Hopefully the colors will come out, if not do it again, but do not dry the clothes in the dryer before bleaching them the second time as that will set the color even more. You can also add some white vinegar to the water, about a cup.
Good Luck.
