2 maybe three times.

I wash it whenever I do laundry. Usually once a week.

I don't understand the "one time only" thing. You just washed, right? With soap, right? So all that's left is water.

Finally
My wife does it every time she uses a towel. I'm with Quirt, however. If you're clean, so is the towel.

yeah...but when you hang the towel to dry back out it isn't fluffy and soft and freshly scented like it is when it's newly washed and dried. I do the laundry, I live a frugal life and work hard. My bath is my one indulgence. I burn candles, I turn on music so I can't hear the kids, I want a FRESH SOFT TOWEL when I'm done.


Any questions?

:P

I have.

But it sounds as if it would be very dangerous to get between Deb and her bath towel. Almost as dangerous as being between John and a bottle of scotch. Or between George and a funny picture. Or between Caroline and a guy with big shoulders.

:lol:

I have no idea. Mrs. D'Oh deals with all that kind of stuff. I am MAN, THE HUNTER, not some soft blokey who does his own laundry. This evening I have hunted down a nice round of bangers and some lovely little potatoes with herbs. Sadly, I was completely unable to cook them, and the wife was busy doing the laundry, so I ordered takeout.

Our towels rarely smell too bad, so I guess it's 'now and again'.
What do you mean "we", have you got a mouse in your pocket?

2 or 3 times for a bath towel.

Face towels I use only one time.

We use our towels 2 or 3 times.
Sometimes I hang them outside to dry and refluff. Sometimes I toss them in the dryer with a dryer sheet to refluff. Saves water since they are big big bath towels aka bath sheets.
I'd rather fall into chocolate.

was this poll referring to paper towels or cloth towels?

The turnover rate for my bath towels probably correlates to the turnover rate for our state legislature. :whome:
I cite irreconcilable differences.
