Also, washing more often than needed is hard on clothes, and they won't last as long.

I am like the rest of you.. only wash things when they are dirty. I wash my towels once a month, I use each one for 1 week and then pile them up and do a huge load! Uniforms are another thing, I feel like I am constantly washing them, ugh!

Personally, I really like the way a pair of jeans feels on day two. They fit like they were made just for me -- which I suppose they sort of were since they had all of the first day to conform to my body shape. :)
However, I don't wear the same shirt twice -- except for PJ/Loungy type clothes -- those I'll wear a couple of times. Undies, of course, are a one time item. Bras, however...I'll wear those suckers three or four times -- maybe more. I NEVER own enough of them. They are SO expensive for such a little flippin' strip of clothing, and right now I am going through the bra sizes at lightening speed due to the weight loss. If it doesn't stop soon, I'm not going to even need the dang things so I want have to worry about it... |
LOL! I don't think I've washed a pair of jeans in like 2 years. I buy a ton, so when they stop fitting right; I throw them away and start on a new skin tight pair. I LOVE the way new jeans feel. I only wash once a month, so I have enough clothes to last me that long. A long time ago, I noticed that I wasn't the only one like this. How often do you hear folks say, "Crap! And I just washed this!" You know the feeling, you just washed a shirt that you can get a least three wears out of and you spill some soup on that first day. Now that shirt is done until the next time you do laundry.

I have 3 kids so i much much easier not to wash everything i wear if it doesnt need washing.. i have enough laundry as it is lol

Underwear and my workout outfit (I only have one) are the only things that get the 1 wear policy attached to them. I wear bra 4-5 times or until the elastic gets so stretchy things to sit right.
But if I ever need anything washed my house can do 3 loads of laundry a day and then do like 5-6 on Saturday. My sisters haven't caught onto the wear it more than once theory....... |
I wear jeans every single day. I have 3 pairs. I wash them every 2-3 weeks.
You do the math. ;) (I think we can all agree that underwear is a very different situation!) |
my mother washes on a monday, tuesday and friday morning....
sometimes saturday for the work clothes.... |
I'm out of college a year and a half now and I still do this. Most shirts I wash after one wear, except for PJ shirts. They can usually last a few days until the PJ pants are ready for a wash. I wear jeans about 3 or 4 times before I wash them. Towels go a week and then I switch them out...sheets too. Blankets and stuff can go a few weeks! haha. But, of course, panties are only worn once! Bras can last about a week.

heck yeah, as gross as it might sound, washing clothes is not the highest of priorities to me.

I do the same thing. Usually sometimes when Im getting ready and think to myself, O that shirt would look good and I see it in the hamper, I'll see if its absolutely dirty/smelly/anything spilled on it, and usually nothing is so I wear it. I wear my jeans a couple times before I wash them unless I get mud or dirt on them or spill something on them that you can tell its there. I think its kinda pointless to do laundry every couple days since you only wear a certain amount of clothes in that time anyways. It also saves money on electricity since your not running it all the time. I wash undies and socks every couple days though, and I only wear those once and thats it.

My house doesn't have a washer and dryer so I take my laundry over to my friends house every Tues morning. I could last probably two weeks without doing laundry but I do my bf's too and his clothes are huge so it almost triples the number of loads I have to do. He wears his shirts and shorts so long (granted he's tall but he's only about 200lbs) they fill up the washer really fast. I wear athletic clothes most of the time, I was an athlete most of my life so my drawers are stuffed full of them- and I ride my bike to school and jeans aren't really that comfy for that. It actually makes working out easier because I'm already dressed for the gym if I have extra time I just run across campus and work out! That way I have one set of clothes per day instead of 2.. like I will soon when I have to graduate and grow up :( That'll be a whole new story.

haha when I leave the house today, I'm going to think about all the people walking around wearing DIRTY CLOTHES!
And i'm one of them :) hehehehee |
"This shirt is Dry-Clean only, which means, it's never been washed"
-Mitch Hedberg I thought I was the only one who could relate to this! I have sweaters I have really never washed (why bother, they look fine!) I used to do this with jeans when I was bigger (chubby girls have a hard time fitting into freshly washed jeans..go figure) but now, I literally have to wash them all the time because of how stretched they get after each wearing. I refuse to keep spending money on jeans because I'm dropping sizes so fast, so I often times am guilty of dump-butt. But it's worth it. I like dropping sizes:-) |
