Frugal Friday


My tip today is about swim diapers. I know they have washable swim pants for babies but some place like hotels, public pools and water parks require disposable swim pants. The daddy of this house also requires them. I reuse and even wash the disposable swim diapers. I simply wring out all excess water and turn them inside out and hang them too dry. I accidentally washed a couple and air dried them and they worked great. I have found they work for about 4 to 5 times before I pitch them that means 4 or 5 less packages I have to buy.

Excellent tip..I reuse those swiffer dusters too. I just put them through the wash in a delicates bag.

Such a good idea! Caleb doesn't usually care if Piper doesn't have anything on in the hot tub. We usually throw her in with just her birthday suit on. This will come in handy though when we are using the hot tub this winter and with the 2 boys living here with us. Most likely they won't want to use the hot tub after a n-u-d-e baby has been in there. :)

Great idea I actually did this a few times when summer was ending and I didn't want to go purchase a whole new package of them. I don't need them any more but if I did I would for sure wash them saves you lots of money those things are very exspensive! Have a good vacation!!
