Similarly, reconsider the best time to run your washing machine and dryer. To lower your energy bill, check the peak hours listed by your energy company. Oftentimes, running these appliances at night will save you money in the long run. And procrastinators, take note: It does eliminate creases if you fold clothes when they’re still hot, right out of the dryer (or, if you prefer, right out of the pile that you dumped onto your bed). Give each item a quick shake so wrinkles don’t set in. If you don’t have time to fold a load immediately, shake out the pieces and lay them flat in the laundry basket, one on top of another, while they await further attention.
