It is not like I can’t find anything to blog about.
Does your dryer have balls? Mine does! (You can laugh now. I know that I am.)
I didn’t know what dryer balls were until I was at the dollar store last week. ( I don’t have satellite or cable TV.)
“Dryer Balls tumble in the dryer to lift and separate laundry allowing hot air to flow more efficiently.”
I purchased a package of two dryer balls. It was my $1 experiment and the things really do work. They cut down on drying time and fluffed the clothes. (I am now using them to reduce electricity use.)
Dryer balls: What a great invention. Get your dryer some balls today, but try your local dollar store before ordering dryer balls online.
Yes, I’m intrigued by dryer balls. Little things amuse me.
I hope I haven’t scared you off blogging about my dryers balls.
Anyone try these balls?

Well now, that does sound interesting. Never heard of them before. I read a post a while back about truck balls…was that on your site? I thought it was insane and earlier this week I saw a truck in front of me with a set! To be honest, if I hadn’t read the post I probably wouldn’t have gave them a second thought.

I’ve heard of them, don’t use them though. I dry my clothes the old fashioned way.

not surprised that somebody would actually market and sell balls for dryers. its the american way—Me? when I get done with my tennis balls, use em in the dryer when drying quilts, fluffs up and helps distribute the down in them—and while on the subject of dryers, I also have learned to put my sneakers in an old Pillowcase, cuts down on the clumping sound in the dryer without adding to the drying time.

I have a set of those! They’re wonderful, not only do they cut down on drying times, they do a little fabric softening too. One of my triplets is allergic to fabric softeners (like the dryer sheets), but I hate the way the towels feel after they come out of the dryer without fabric softener on them. I found my dryer balls in a local grocery store and decided to give them a try. I’m so glad I did!

They look fun to squeeze, are they air-filled?
I may have to get me some of those. Dryer sheets are just too expensive…
