I never iron, I especially buy work clothes that won't need it. As long as I hang my work pants and skirts they're fine and I never where shirts, just buy blouses/knits that don't need ironing. The most I ever do is a touch up when absolutely necessary.
DP's work uniform (he's a cop) needs to be ironed daily, mostly because it's made from fairly cheap material and partly because he doesn't put it away properly. Lucky for me he is under the impression that I am very bad at ironing and always does his own... Not sure where he got that idea from, it is possibly true but I don't want to test it out, the current system works for me

Think I have used it 3 times in 5 years and I think the 3 times were in the 1st year since having kids!
I remember someone at work who ironed everything when clothes were picked up off the line. Including socks & undies! Crazy I say I have better things to do!

I'm sorry, I'm confused?
Why is everyone talking about clothes and irons? I have an iron, which was given to me as a gift. When I asked my mother what it is for, she told me it's for threatening and/or disciplining husbands. You hold the cord and swing the heavy, funny shaped bit over your head. Do you all know you're doing it wrong???

Lol mine wasn't either when I explained what it was for (the first time he asked me to iron something.) He hasn't asked since though. Originally Posted by Rose&Aurelia

We have an iron tucked away in the linen cupboard somewhere. It comes out for special occasions like weddings or christenings.....and even then it's DH that will iron the clothes, not me
