Fabric Softener Sheets

For years I saved money by never buying fabric softener sheets.  I had read that you shouldn't use them for baby's and children's pajamas because it negates the flame resistance of the clothing.  Since the baby's clothes were washed with ours, I never used them.  However, the static cling started to take it's toll!

We now have enough laundry to wash baby's clothing separately, so I enjoy the "luxury" :-) of fabric softener.  But I still want to stretch my dollar.  Take the fabric softener sheets and cut them in half.  Then use just one half sheet per load.  I promise it works just as well!

Or if you're lazy like me I just save the old ones and use them again. Two used ones per load works great.
