When I go to wdw for 10 days and 9 nights

I always stay at a vacation club home

I always try to get a room with washers and dryiers so I can do the laundry and go home and just put my close away

I'm already tired when I get home from vacation and then to think of doing laundry

no way not for me

Depends on the length I stay! I recycle clothes anyway two or three uses out of shorts to lighten the load, for all the souviours that are bought!

Same here. If we stay at Key West, we use them because they are right there and it doesn't get anymore convenient. Otherwise, we make do or go and buy something if we really need it.

We do but only the night before we leave. When we get back we just put everything away.

My usual stay is about 9 nights, so I do laundry at least once. I would try to make it a "down" day. One where you just chill by the pool for a half of a day instead of running around trying to see everything. It also makes it a bit easier once I get back home with some of the laundry done already.

And now, taking into consideration what some airlines (not Southwest though) are charging for baggage, if you are on an extended vacation you just can't take it all.

But believe me, I can fully understand those who feel as though a vacation should not be the time to do regular chores. It is a vacation after all. It's just sometimes the dirty laundry has to be cleaned.

We did laundry during our stay at the FW cabins but otherwise.... no.

We usually do laundry midweek on a typical 8 night stay. It means not having to worry so much about doing laundry when we get back to reality, since some of the clothes are still clean. Plus, small children are messy, and who wants to pack dirty clothes covered in ice cream!

I do a little laundry, I can't pack 14 pairs of shorts in my suitcase, it ends up weighing too much and then I don't have room for the important stuff, souvenirs! Woohoo!

I usually pack a second bag specifically for bring home souvenirs.

Um, I normally have a second bag, which is also filled with the essentials... clothes, shoes, etc. I just haven't learned to pack light...

You're as bad as me.

Last summer, when we stayed at FW, I think I packed every t-shirt I own for a week-long stay. I own about forty t-shirts.

I never had until this past trip. We were there for 11 days and I paying for all those suitcases!!!!

We did it at ASMU by the quiet pool, it worked great! We started it and swam for the afternoon, it wasnt too expensive, alot less than $25 a bag!

We try for longer visits and doing a load or two of laundry saves a lot of room in the car. It's also nice to go home with clean laundry and not have to do it right away upon returning home.

Well, we stay at Ft. Wilderness, for usually at least 7 nights, so you better believe it. Our trailer doesn't have _that_ much storage.

Laundry?

Do you take advantage of the laundry facilities while staying at a Disney resort?
