laundrey

With the price of gas so high, do you think it's cheaper to do a couple loads at my parent's house which is about twenty miles away, or a couple loads at the mat, at about 5 dollars....? Ok you do the math for me.

    What car are you driving? What's the mileage? 20 miles via mostly fwy or surface streets? It's probably cheaper to do the laundromat, actually, unless you fit other stuff in at your parents'. ;-)

    If you can get a parent or sibling to do the laundry for you then you can utilize your time for other things. I'm sure they would just be happy to see youl

      Doing your laundry at the homestead accomplishes two things at once. You see your family and your clothes get clean. Go home!

          I had a friend pose that exact question to me, but there was also some factor about a pillowcase of homegrown pot he wanted to dry.
