[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 734777, member: 18516"] Do you sort colors and whites and use different settings? [COLOR=#0000ff]Yes, I sort by color and type of fabric. Some of my work clothes have to be washed on delicate and some say on the tag "dry flat" so for those, I lay a towel over my wingback chairs then place the top or pants on that to dry.[/COLOR] Do you use a dryer or a clothes line or both? [COLOR=#0000ff]I use a dryer. It's too humid where we live but someday if I retire to AZ I will line dry some things. :) [/COLOR] Do you use dryer sheets? [COLOR=#0000ff]Yes. No particular brand - I look for a bargain.[/COLOR] Do you swear by a certain brand? [COLOR=#0000ff]Not so much. I do like the way some smell but if I can find something on sale I'll use that.[/COLOR] How often do you wash?

[COLOR=#0000ff]HA!! Hubby does his own laundry unless it's a dress shirt or dress pants, he'll throw those into my laundry basket. He started doing his own laundry many years ago.
