    Haven’t checked him out on Reddit yet but this sounds intriguing.

        If something as simple as a T-shirt requires all those resources, Kismai wants to make it last.

        I can't help thinking he might actually be shortening the life of the shirt with his intensive washing methods.

        I know that when scouring sheep's fleece, enzymes are not good. They will deteriorate the fibers. I use Dawn Ultra (the one that doesn't contain enzymes) and it does a fantastic job.

        As for laundry, I use Mrs. Meyers, preferably Lavender scented, which does contain enzymes. But I'm not a wear-it-once-must-be-laundered person. Even more so now that I don't have a job.

        The industrial revolution cheapened everything.

          Dollar Tree is $1.50? It was $1.25 a minute ago. Good grief.

          Roommate was given his mother's washer and dryer. I already had a dryer my neighbor gave me on the carport. We have a stacking set in the utility shed.

          There are two washers and three dryers.

          He's still be doing his laundry at the laundromat for the foreseeable future. I'll still be doing my laundry by hand.

          I've decided if I find a place that doesn't have washer and dryer hook-ups, I can buy a portable washer that hooks up to the sink (Danby, Canada) and a portable electric dryer.

          I hope I will find one, but I've decided to be flexible about this so I have more possible options.
