Dallas Bartolini: I don't think there's an awful lot you can do to save on laundry. You're not doing an excessive amount. I find I have to do two loads a week no matter what, if I want to wear reasonably clean clothes.You can air dry anything, if you have space to spread it out or hang it up so it dries within a day or so. Trouble is, things will dry kind of crumpled and you may end up ironing things so they're presentable looking. That might be cheaper, but takes time, and it won't save you much money.You can certainly wear shirts twice, most of the time. Hang them up when you take them off, so they can air out a bit between wearings.You can hand wash things, but the things you can hand wash aren't the ones that take up all the room in the washer and dryer. If you're doing a load of laundry, some socks and underwear probably aren't going to mean one load instead of two.Maybe you can save money some other way. Do you go out for coffee? Don't, or order cheaper coffee....Sh! ow more
Elvie Drumgoole: Get one of these. http://www.breathingwasher.com/They work really well, require almost no soap, and no electricity. Then learn to make your own laundry detergent. Wash, rinse and wring. Then if your laundromat has one of those spinner, stuff and spin, then dry. You'll at least save the wash cost. If that doesn't work... get one of these. http://www.target.com/p/polder-wall-mount-accordio...Mount the rack in your room as close as you can to a heat source and direct a fan on the rack too....Show more
Clark Lachowski: There are a lot of things that just require a hand wash because they really don't get that grubby. I hand wash my pj's and my under garments and they last longer also. I don't put a lot of things in the dryer either. I use the shower curtain rod to hang things to dry. It would be pretty easy to put up one of those clothlines that retract too. I wouldn't hang them in your closet as there is not enough air circulation and ! might make your other clothes smell like mildew. Save the laun! dromat for heavy things like jeans and towels. Great laundry detergent recipes on pinterest! P.S. a fan really helps when you direct it on the clothes you are hang drying. Anything like cotton blouses or light knits also dry quickly on hangers....Show more
Dorinda Metzer: I lived faraway from abode and change into able to bypass 2 weeks between laundry and that i really had 2 suitcases of clothing. Launder sheets two times a month; use non equipped sheets and use the precise to the bottom after a week. Hand wash undies. Use camis less than tops so that you'll placed on shirts a number of situations. Towels once a week to each and each 2 weeks (relying on the way you want them). shop the drier for heavy products (like jeans) that isn't dry quick. some thing that isn't dry in an afternoon smells mold-y. Shirts, tees, sweaters etc can dry on their personal on a towel or plastic hanger (not metal). placed on darker shades....Show more
Jacques Teri: Underwear - wash ! after one wear, but you can do this by hand, rinse well, squeeze the water out and hang in closet.Shirts and t-shirts can be worn twice if you haven't been sweating a lot. Can be hung up on a clotheshanger to dry, but in a well-aired place.Jeans- wash when dirty. Frankly if you are careful once a week is ok.Towels - hang them up properly after use so that they dry. You are clean when you use them - they should last a week before changing.Woolens. Hand-wash and dry flat on a towel. Hope this helps....Show more
Ruthe Real: Well if you really need to save money you can always wash your clothes in the sink or tub, wring them out, and hang them up over a shower, over top of a door, over a chair, just anywhere where they can air dry.
