and then notice there is a hole in one do you throw the pair out?
or do you wear it once more and then throw it out?

I wear it until I get yelled at to throw it out.

When I buy socks, I try to get 2 or 3 pairs of the same. That way, if one gets a hole, I throw it out and it's "match" becomes a backup for the next holey sock.

By the way, "holey" is the only two-syllable triple homonym that I have been able to find (holey, wholly, holy).

I keep wearing them. I have more socks with holes in them than socks without holes.

I tend to notice after wearing them, not after the wash. So I'll wear it for that day or maybe throw it out then, otherwise throw it out and the end of the day.

Who sees them? As long as the holes aren't on the side of the sock, I will keep wearing them. After all, "holey" socks are blessed.

This is how anal I am, I can't stand the hole in the sock thing but when my kids run around all day in them and I know that me washing is a waste, I toss them out!!! How silly is that!!!

I buy a pack of a dozen socks and they all into the same drawer, if one gets a hole, I toss it and like others have said, the match doesn't matter. :)

If the hole is small I'll keep them a bit. When the hole starts to get bigger I throw them out.

I don't throw them out after I wash them. I use them as rags. Generally, they're good for working with shoe polish.

:agree:
Old socks and (most) old clothes (especially t-shirts which makes up 85% of my wardrobe :heh:) work well as shop rags, cleaning rags, etc.

I'll keep wearing them till there is a huge hole.
