    Question ? For those who use a dry Swiffer on the floor

    I was watching the Ellen DeGeneres show yesterday and she and her guest, Bonnie Hunt, both admitted to doing what I do with my Swiffer floor thingy. I've actually always assumed that most of you do it too, since it seems frugal, but hearing two celebrities admit to doing it got me wondering exactly who really does it.

    Do you turn the dry cloth inside out when one side is full and then use the other side? I do, but I'm curious who else does.

    Also, I had read about people who take a used dryer sheet and use those as pseudo-Swiffer cloths on the floor. Have you ever done that, and if so, did/does it work for you? I haven't, but I'm tempted.

    If the first side is not super full of hair I shake it out and use the other side. I have not used anything other than swiffer clothes. I do use the wet swiffer cloths for quick wipe ups. I think I have had the same small box for a year.

    I flip the dry swiffer cloth and use the clean inside as well.

    I haven't tried dryer sheets yet tho..but I might give it a shot.. my first pack of cloths is almost gone and I don't know yet if I like it well enough to buy more...
