How often do you wash clothes?
It seems I'm always washing even after getting rid of many of our clothes. I'm determined to cut back again in the washing department so will be going through dresser drawers once again.
How often do you wash clothes?

Usually just on Saturday and Sunday. I try to get it all done on Saturday, but if I need to finish on Sunday, I will. However, now that I've been on vacation for a week, I found that I kept doing this chore for a few days. I think I like having the designated days to do it. Then, when it's done, it's done until next weekend.

I just spent the last three days washing clothes and just got caught up again. *the children threw clean in with dirty so everything had to be rewashed.* I do it everyday, at least 2 loads. and i don't have alot of things that i wear either.

I do ours every other day.
Mostly this is because dh does not have many clothes. I get hand me downs from the boys but he has to go to a special store which is very high ($50 is the lowest we can find his jeans for!)

About three loads twice a week. If I don't have time to do the bedding with the other loads then I'll take an extra day to get those done. There's only the three of us so it's not too bad. Winter is always worse though because the clothes are heavier.
