In what amount of time? I don't see a load of laundry costing more than a dollar in energy costs.

How much extra time do you have to spend to save each dollar?

Do you get paid more than 30$ per hour after tax for your free time? If no then spending 2 minutes hanging up clothes would be worth. Nevermind the cost of the dryer.
