Woman's 'genius' trick to get her husband to do the laundry leaves people divided

While nobody enjoys doing housework, it has to be done in order to keep a clean and tidy home. But one woman has come up with a "genius" solution after her lazy husband stopped helping around the house. She explained how she has been planting money in her clothes pockets to get him to jump at the chance to do the laundry.

She told Reddit : "I put £5 or £10 a week in my clothes. He thinks he is getting one over on me because we both have a weekly budget. He doesn't know that he is part of my budget. If I even try to do the laundry he is like 'No, I got it'." The woman says the investment is "worth every red cent" - and wishes she thought of it sooner.
