Running Colors

Help!



I've been catching up on laundry and am just sick. A brand new cotton jacket that said it was washable had one of the colors run, red. I was with it enough to see it before I tossed it into the dryer and baked the run in.



I went to Target and Wal-Mart to see if they had the color run stuff. Alas, no. I'll try Fred Meyer tomorrow.



Any suggestions?



Thanks,

Not sure if this brandis available in the US, but I keep on hand for such emergencies "Dylon colour safe Run Away colour run remover". Maybe there is an equivalent over there?

It's also one of the reasons I ALWAYS toss in a colour catcher sheet with EVERY load, be it a load of older stuff where excess dye is long gone or new stuff. DS doesn't have enough clothes to last out if I waited to sort wash loads by colour.

If the label said washable and it ain't, take it back to the store.
