I gave up on ironing years ago. Wash/dry/fold services by the pound are available a lot of places. I only wash jeans, t-shirts, towels, sheets, undergarments and other non-iron clothes at home. Business shirts, khaki's and the wife's dresses all go to the cleaners. Costs me about $10 every 2 weeks at $0.50/lb (since all that stuff is light weight). It comes back on hangars (saving there), not to mention the energy and detergents, plus the hassle of ironing. I'd say maybe I'm loosing $3-5 a month using the service instead of doing it at home. WELL worth it.
There's a place right next to my main grocery store, so I'm not even wasting gas or time... and on a few occasions, they've burned, ripped, or inked some of our stuff, so we've gone shopping, brought them a receipt, and they paid us for the item (free replacement clothes).
