LAUNDRY often seems like the never ending task.

And when you've got kids the pile of dirty clothes and towels seems to take on a life of it's own.

This mum amazed people when she confessed that she washes her towels after just one use.

Despite being part of a family of five, Karli Lay said that she's always washed them quickly.

She said: "I always have loads of dirty towels and used to wash and throw them in the dryer."

But as the cost of living soars, the mum confessed she can no longer afford to use the dryer.

Karli said she's had to start using an air dryer for her families clothes.

She added: "Towels though, they take so long to dry!"

She asked others how often they wash their towels, admitting that "It would make sense to just reuse them."

She asked: "How often does everyone else wash their towels?

"And if you don't after one use, does everyone have their own or what?"

People couldn't believe she had been washing her entire families towels after just one use.

One said it was "completely ridiculous" and added "so much water, energy and money wasted, and so bad for the environment.

"I was mine when they look like they need it and everyone has their own towel."

Another said: "We each have our own and only wash when they actually need it, which isn't often.

"The thought of people washing towels makes me feel sick, I'm saddened by how wasteful people are."

A third added: "Daily is a bit much, they don't even do that in hotels these days."

One person was glad to see others that washed theirs less frequently: "So happy to see so many sensible washers here, you're making extra work for yourself!"
