every time you wear them?

Do you wear them more than once before washing?

I wear my jeans at LEAST 4 times.

I mean what the heck got them dirty? I only wear them to buy groceries or run errands. So we're talking about 4-6 hours a week on two pair. At home I am always in my PJs unless I know someone's coming over.

(Don't even ask the number of PJs I have, they have their own drawer!!)

I do the same exact thing. I only wear jeans while I am out of the house. As soon as I walk through the door its into pjs because it is sooooo much more comfortable to be in. I think I have more pj than actual street clothes.

yes, they always fit better the second time.

I know! I hate just-washed jeans for the snugness factor.

I too will probably wear them 3 times before washing them again, but I also seldom wear them for a full day. I never wear them to work, except for when I have to do the Saturday program. If we are going somewhere after work I'll change into jeans. Otherwise, I change into sweats as soon as I get home from work and I wear those more than anything.

Who knows, maybe I will wash them more once a) we no longer have to deal with the laundromat and b) I drop a few pounds and they aren't snug on that first wearing!

Yes, I wash all of my clothes after 1 use.

Sometimes I'll wear pajamas 2 nights in a row.

My suits get steamed after every use and fully dry cleaned after 3 wears. (I asked the dry cleaner if after every 2 wears was okay and he said it might be a little too much since I already steam them after every use).

But, I always wear camisoles and a shirt under my suits. Those get washed after every use.

I don't keep track of how many wears. When they are dirty or saggy, they get washed. I would guess 5-6 wears MAX before a pair is washed... but I also often wash after 1 wear... depends what I did that day, if it was raining, if I spilled something, etc.
