Does your housework seem to take up all your spare time? Here are a few simple, easy tips to save you time. And this way you can relax a little!
Grocery Shopping
Try to go grocery shopping on Wednesday. Statistics show that this is the least busy day of the week. And the shelves are better stocked too. Why wait on long lines if you can breeze in and out?
Dinner Menus
Plan all weeks dinners on Sunday. Most people don't know what they are eating for dinner that evening until that afternoon. To prevent the big dinner rush, plan and shop for the whole weeks dinner ahead of time.
Order in advance
Instead of standing on that long, long line in the delicatessen, call your order in. This way when you get there it will be ready for you.
Try Self Check-Out
Many supermarkets now have the u-scan feature. Some are only for express, 10-12 items. But this can save you some time, too.
On-line shopping
Don't go to the grocery at all. Order online at any time of the day or night. They charge a delivery fee, but most online grocery delivery services stock what you need. Try Peapod or Vons.com and Save $4.95 on home delivery click here: http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-1782558-10298144
Laundry
Don't hand wash. Too time-consuming. Most washers have a delicates feature with a short, slow cycle. Try to remove the clothes after one or two minutes in the spin cycle. If you need to wash bras and hosiery try a lingery bag. They are sold in the detergent aisle of the supermarket. Or, Bra Wash Bag from Woolite ($4.99) (800) 435-6223 www.woolite.com
Lost Socks
Are you always left with one sock? Then try sock clips. They can be used for both the wash and dry cycles. Sock Cop ($6.99 for 20) (866)583-7625 www.sockcop.com
Stain Removal
Getting stains out quickly is always best. But if you can't, try Spray 'n Wash Stain Stick, $3.00 (800) 228-4722 www.spraynwash.com It can be used up to a week before washing.
Crumpled Clothes
Left your clothes in the dryer overnight? Well here is a simple way to fix them. Place a damp towel in the dryer and run it again for ten to fifteen minutes. They remove and hang them up.
Wrinkled shirts
Keep your tee shirts and all cotton sweaters on padded hangers. Folding them causes the wrinkles.
Buy Easy Wear Clothes
Plan your morning wardrobe the night before. Buy clothes that are wash and wear and save trips to the cleaners. Lands' End makes a women's suit Jacket ($149) and Pants ($79) that is machine washable and no-iron. (800) 963-4816 www.landsend.com
