Another "how often" question

[finn's mom]

I think twice a week, probably. Or more, if I'm washing a load of clothes that the towel can be thrown in with.

once a week, as my laundry time is on weekends & I only have 2 bath towels.

Well, I use my towel a few times before throwing it in the hamper, but my husband will only use his once. I'm trying to break him of this habit, but until then I wash towels more often. I don't know how often though, I just wash them whenever the hamper gets full and the towels in the closet get low

My towels get changed once a week. I have two hand towels, one *face towel* and one bath towel and a couple wash cloths that I use during that week. With the cost of water in our municipality, I've made a decision to be conserving in the amount of laundry that I do. If at any time I felt that any particular towel was *gross* I would certainly wash it. I'm probably more of stickler for dish towels which probably don't get used for any length of time and I use a lot of paper towels in the kitchen.

On the other hand, when the dog gets bathed, his towels are washed after one use.

Exactly as I do!

every few days on the bath towels. I know they are clean but they seem stale after more than a day or two.

I hope daughter Missy sees this - she is soooo picky about never using a towel more than once. And, if laundered towels do not go immediately to the dryer, she rewashes them

I use mine 2-4 times (hung up to dry between uses) then it sometimes get retired to the floor towel (to step on when you get out of the shower) for a couple days before being washed.
All in all I only use 2-3 towels each week.

All my family (there are four of us) use a fresh towel everyday,and some of us shower more than once daily, especially my son, as he goes to the gym and plays sport as well as work, and likes to shower after each, my daughter uses one for her hair and one for her body, so yes i have a ton of washing to do, but there is something about a lovely fresh towel that i just love, so i will continue to be a slave to the washing machine.
