Nope. The volatiles that make vinegar smell like, well, vinegar, are pretty dang volatile. Plus you're diluting it with a bunch of water, plus you're running it through the dryer which further drives off the vinegar-smelling volatiles. In the end you're just left with fresh, clean-smelling laundry.

    Neat. Are we talking cleaning vinegar or the food-grade stuff sold in smaller quantities?

    Edit: thanks for the clarification, everyone.

    At our grocery stores you can buy a gallon of food grade white vinegar. Works great. I think it undoes old fabric softener on towels so they absorb better. But I have no empirical proof. No vinegar smells after it dries. I can smell it while it washes in the washer.
