Frugal Friday - Fabric Softener


Frugal Friday is back with two choices for inexepensive fabric softners. One that goes in the washer, the other in lieu of conventional dryer sheets. I've tried both and they work great.

Option 1: Washing machine method.

1/4 cup of white vinegar.

Yep,that's it. Doesn't make your clothes smell like vinegar, just leaves them smelling fresh!

Option 2: Dryer method.

Recipe #2

1 Container of Your favorite Fabric Softener
5 gallon bucket with lid
2 Inexpensive sponges, cut in half

Pour entire container of softener into a 5 gallon bucket. Fill empty softener container with water twice. (2 parts water to 1 part softener) Add sponges to mixture. When you're ready to use, wring out the extra mixture from one sponge and add to the dryer as you would a dryer sheet. This works with both Name Brand & Generics equally well.


Happy savings!
