Did dry cleaning cost increase?

I thought I saw someone post that dry cleaning for a shirt is now $6. That is twice as much as it was in 2009 and not quite the bargain it once was. Can anyone confirm the present cost?

In April on the Dream and in August on the Wonder the cost to launder a men's dress shirt was $3.50, the same cost it has been for a few years now. I don't get my DH's dress shirts dry cleaned only laundered and pressed so I don't know if dry cleaning them would be more.

I had my dress pressed and husband suit and shirt and it was $14. I thought that was pretty cheap!!!

You had all three pressed? Pressing is half of dry cleaning cost so cleaning for all three would be $28. 2008 pricing was $18.50, so maybe a small increase?
I hate ironing and was hoping to avoid it on my trip.I could justify having someone else do it if the price was right.

This summer I had clothes pressed on the Magic. It was still reasonable. I cannot remember the prices, but I will be doing it again on the Wonder soon.

Hoping maybe someone has the full price list for dry cleaning? I found one from 2005 posted, but nothing more recent

That price list is still current. On our Nov b2b on the Dream, I brought home the laundry price list, just out of curiosity, to compare to prices listed on here. I was surprised to see they haven't changed. I did send my actual printed laundry list to a mod to keep the FAQ section current. With holidays and all it's probably not tops on her to do list but I'm sure she'll get to it eventually. In the meantime, here it is:

Thank you!!

Hurray! Hope there is no increase before my trip! Thanks, ruadisneyfan2!

Hmmm... now that I look at the press only prices. It's probably cheaper to roll up our dinner clothes & cram them in a regular suitcase, & later have them pressed on the ship instead of bringing 2 garment bags & paying RT luggage fees and stressing out that our dinner clothes have been in there too long. I always unfold & open up the garment bags during our precruise hotel stay to try to keep things from wrinkling.

I wonder if they do a good job?
