I decided after watching a YouTube video from CommunityChannel that if she is randomly commenting about how dryers are energy hogs, that maybe I should look into using a drying rack... I already owned the rack, but had been using it for any items that needed to be dried flat. So, there was no added cost or consumerism. And so, I began drying my clothes this way.
Drying rack limitations I noticed: 1) I only have room for drying one load of laundry at a time, and 2) towels don't dry very well - they start to get moldy smelling before finally drying the next day (I'm sticking with using the dryer for these). That being said, I saved $10 / month by just using a rack. I was so excited because this is about 15-20% of my energy bill.
Highly recommended. What have your experiences been??

We only use drying racks. Not because they're green, rather, because they keep the clothes from shrinking. Oh, we put the towels in the dryer too.
