Frugal Liquid Fabric Softener

By ThriftyFun.com Staff

In a recent Reader's Request (one of our other newsletters) we published a reader's request for frugal fabric softener ideas. Below is one of the responses we received.

One good way to use liquid fabric softener frugally is to dilute 2 or 3 caps full with 3 or 4 cups of water in a covered plastic container. Place regular kitchen sponges cut in half in the container. When you are ready to put a load in the dryer, squeeze the sponge almost dry and throw in the dryer as you would a fabric softener sheet. This does the same as a fabric softener sheet and makes your liquid softener go a long, long way. Put the sponge back in the bucket when the clothes are dry for the next use.

We have tried this tip and it works great. You can purchase a gallon bottle of fabric softener for a few dollars.

RE: Frugal Liquid Fabric Softener

They say fabric softener sheets clog dryer vent screens and can cause a fire. I wonder if this sponge thing does the same thing.
