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.
