[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Laundry is easy.  Put a load in when you wake up. Stick it in the dryer as you leave. Fold it and have everyone take what’s theirs  to put away in the evening. 7 loads a week is plenty for a family of four. [/quote]

These posts baffle me. Do you just wash everyone's sheets and duvets in one giant load? Do you not separate colors and whites? Don't your kids have uniforms that need to be worn? Pets? [/quote]

We alternate whites and darks.  My kids go to public school, so they do not have uniforms.  We usually do 3-5 loads of laundry a week so I added a few more to account for sports stuff as they do not do sports. We also wear our outer clothes more than once.  It decreases laundry as well as helps the clothes last longer.

How often are you washing your duvets?  If it is weekly, then that is where you lower your standards. We do a load of everyone’s sheets on the weekends.  How large is your washer? If you have a small one, that could be the issue. [/quote]
