Diary of a Wimpy Kid Wiki

The Laundry Hoop was an item given to Greg on Christmas by his uncle Charlie Heffley. He was supposed to throw his dirty clothes in it and it would make doing laundry "fun".

Greg thought this was a joke at first, because his mother, Susan Heffley always picks up his dirty clothes, but then he realized that it wasn't. Greg told Charlie that it would be better if he just gave him the money that he bought the Laundry Hoop for, and then he could buy something he really needed. But Susan said that the Laundry Hoop was a great idea and made Greg do his laundry from then on. This caused Greg to be on a shortage on clean clothes and had to wear his dirty clothes on some days.[1]

In the online book, Greg receives this as a birthday gift. When he explains to Freddie that Ann does his and his brother's laundry, he suggests giving him the gift receipt so he can exchange it. This leads Ann to declare that Greg will now be doing his own laundry, as well as buying one for Rodrick Heffley, who responds by kicking his brother under the table.[2]
