[quote=walterwhite]It’s better than min wage because no commute you can laugh w your kids you can do the 15 mins whenever and it has an element of fun. I don’t think this one fits neatly into wage analysis[/quote]

I agree.

Seniors and homemakers need things to do around the house.

If you have kids, it can be fun and teaches them good ethics, laundry and coping skills.

Overall, it’s better to move around the house than sit in front of the TV.

It’s also about doing your part in a small way. I make it a habit to turn off the lights in unoccupied rooms and turn off the TV when not watching. In hotels rooms, I turn off everything before leaving eventhough I’m not directly paying for the electricity. Why be destructive when you’re not even getting any benefit?

A friend at work replaced his bathroom light switch with a 15 min. dial-type timer. Saved electricity, gas, water, and his voice. His teenagers no longer took 1hr long showers and he didn’t need to yell at them for not turning off the light.

[quote=jpinpb][quote=UCGal]I add a little vinegar as a rinse agent and the clothes aren’t as “crunchy” from drying on the line. [/quote]

What kind of vinegar? Just white or apple cider vinegar?[/quote]
white vinegar.
(I also use it, diluted, for cleaning countertops, bathrooms, etc… – it’s antibacterial, works as a germacide, etc… And CHEAP when bought in the big bottle at costco. )

[quote=jeeman]Let’s see, it takes about 15 minutes per load to hang up and take down. At $1 savings/load, that’s $4/hour.

If it is purely just to save money, then consider that people at McDonalds make more than that.[/quote]
That’s why I sort my laundry so that all the undies/socks/small stuff is all together – and toss that load in the dryer.

No way it takes 15 minutes to hang up sheets, or towels, or jeans, or t-shirts…
