When you get out of the shower or the bathtub, you dry off. And then you may think that towel goes into the laundry - but what did it just do? Dry off a freshly-cleaned body! No need to wash that towel every day. A bath towel used once is usually not dirty. Hang it up (make sure to hang it up!) and use it again tomorrow. And the next day. And even the next day.

Hanging it up is the important part. if you don’t hang it up, it won’t dry properly, and then not only will you be drying off with a damp towel the next day, it will get mildewy-smelling and disgusting to use. So hang up those towels and use them all week!
