I've used a pre-wash method. I send the clothes through a pre-rinse cycle with just a little soap detergent, just to get the loose dirt and such off. Then I run a full cycle with detergent and clorox. I also try to keep the really dirty socks (like my hubby's) out of my pretty whites wash, and wash them their own.

I use MelaBrite. It's a great alternative to bleach because it doesn't have any harsh chemicals and works better than any brand I found in stores.

Everytime I use my mom's washer I have no problem washing whites in a normal cycle without bleach! I guess her washer does magic. Anytime I wash anywhere else....I use bleach and it barely gets the stains out...especailly when they are food stains! But I'll use some of your advice next time i have stained whites!

Here's a really good tip for your whites.....,spray them with scotchguard before wearing them, this helps prevent bad soiling/stains. You need to reapply the scotchguard after every wash though...it really works well!!!
