I wear pants regulary for several days.

In fact, unless they are physically dirty, smell, or I've been sweating in them, I'll hold off.

I'll admit, I do it too! I'm a sahm so my jeans are really only worn when I have to go to the store or visiting friends and family. I do the same thing to my 4 year old daughter too, except for the opposite reason. She plays in our yard most of the day, rolls in the grass, digs in the dirt, so I put the same play clothes on her a couple days in a row. Her baby brother is another story... but atleast his clothes are tiny.

yes, i pretty much just use the smell test to determine whether or not it is time to wash my clothes, and like the added bonus that my clothes therefore last longer going through fewer of the harsh cycles of washing!

Sorry for my ignorance, but do they ever get dirty? I have not washed my jeans since months and they do not appear dirty at all.

Well well well, it sucks when laundry room is a block away from where you live and you live on a third floor of a building that does not have an elevator

I wear my jeans until they get dirty. I only have 3 pairs, so I probably wear each one at least 10 times unless i spill food or something on them. otherwise, I just wear dresses. I wear a shirt only 1-3 times before washing though. I rarely wash my dresses. Underwear only gets one wear. I only wear socks when I wait tables 1-2 times a week, so i just air them out and get a wear or two out of them.

i'll wear my pants 2-5 times, and shirts 2 times. i have a desk job so my clothes only get dirty if i drop food on them, and i change out of my clothes as soon as i get home into my "around the house clothes"(old jeans and tshirts, sweatpants, pajama pants, boxers, tank tops) which take less loads of laundry to wash.
