Without doing a single load of laundry, and still be wearing all clean clothes?

We could probably last about two weeks. I like to stay stocked up on socks and underwear. :laughing: It better be summer though, cause we might have to dig into the shorts by the end of the two weeks. :rotfl:

are underwear still considered clean the second time you wear them IF you turn them inside out?

That would require the clothes to be clean to begin with, huh? I'm not sure when the last time everyone's clothes were clean at the same time. :rotfl:

Probably 2 weeks, although DS16's would run out after 4-5 days... Not for lack of clothes, but because he doesn't wear 75% of what he owns.
 

Hmmm, I'd have to say 10-12 days...'cause that's about how many pairs of underwear we have. :laughing:
 
We've got about 3 weeks worth of socks & underwear. Shirts/Shorts/Jeans we've got tons of, but it is the "essentials" that force laundry to be done.

EWWWW, no! :lmao:

In our family, my daughter could probably last 2 or 3 weeks. She recently got a HUGE boost in her wardrobe because DS's girlfriend has been giving her tons of hand-me-downs.

I could go a week, week and a half.

Husband could go a week.
 
well, if you go commando, you could go longer. ;)

Since I just bought all new underwear & socks for us today & haven't tossed the old yet, I guess we would be all set for a while. It would depend how many pants & shorts we have. Tons of shirts.
 
This is a little OT, but this thread made me think of it. My older DD told me that she needed underwear because she only had 3 pairs left and she was tired of washing them so often. I told her that couldn't be true because I am ALWAYS buying them underwear. Well I went into other DD's room and pulled out her laundry basket. The bottom of it was FILLED with underwear. I am not exaggerating, I counted them and there were 80 PAIRS! I leave their clean laundry in the laundry room for them to put away so she was going in and taking whatever clean ones she could find regardless of whether they were hers or her sister's. I told her that's gross, she said it's not because they're clean. I don't care how clean they are, I am NOT wearing someone else's underwear.
 
We could probably go close to 2 weeks (I haven't taken inventory of socks and underwear lately. :lmao: ) with one caveat - DD is at the end stages of potty training, which means she still has accidents. On a good day, she stays clean and dry all day. On a bad day, we can go through three or four pairs of underwear. So, really, she is the one that determines how often I have to do laundry.
 
Well, I have enough race shirts to keep the entire CB clothed for a month but I would run out of underwear after about 3 weeks (yeah, I have a lot of underwear).

:lmao: How old is she?

My sister and I used to have some knock down drag out fights because she would steal all my socks. :laughing:
 
I think 3 weeks. DS15 might be a little light in the undies for 3 weeks but it would be close. DD could go a few months I am sure--she has a lot of socks and undies--why, I'm not sure.

Clothes, since the kids are past the 'getting filthy' out playing stage they can rewear clothes a few times before washing so we are good there.

She's 13, almost 14, and her sister is 16. They fight about clothes ALL the time. Now I find myself fighting with her because she takes my brand new Coach sneakers.
 
8 or 9 days maybe. I'm too cheap to buy more clothes than that since we do laundry weekly anyway.
 
My dh-3 days, he claims he only has 3 work pants and 3 work shirts-can you tell I wash his clothes every other day. He has work clothes that fall out of his clothes bureau.

I bet I could go one month and not wear the same outfit twice.
I'm a capri/burmuda shorts hoarder. I'll see a pair in the store I like, in my size and I buy them, especially if they are on the clearance rack.
I'd have to do socks and underwear though.
 
A couple weeks, if that.

Wasn't there someone on this board that had like hundreds of pairs of underwear because she didn't like washing them or something?

Could you imagine having dirty underwear sitting around for a hundred days. Ick!
 
I'm not sure but I do have a question. How is it that I can do 4 loads of laundry every day, and still not be caught up?:laundy: Do they REALLY need to use 2 towels every time they shower!?! All boys too...:rolleyes1

I could last a good long time, the rest of them a week at best.:confused3
 
I could probably go 2 months (no joke, I have way too many clothes, socks & undies) but DF could probably only go 2 weeks. I buy him new socks & underwear all the time, but he keeps throwing some out? :confused: I don't know how (and probably don't WANT to know how :laughing:) he wears them out so fast.
