Dry Your Clothes On Lines

As a rule of thumb, heating usually costs more than cooling, and that goes for clothes, too. Running them through your dryer can also run up your energy bill. So, why not just hang them on a clothesline instead? It's pretty much free, and it's only a little bit more work than using a dryer after you get the line set up. Plus, it'll make your clothes smell like the outdoors.
