I have no idea how they do business. I supposedly get the fifth item free on dry cleaning, but I have no idea if that happens. I don't know what they charge or how consistent their prices are. He just says a number and I give him the credit card.
One time I only had two pairs of pants, and that let me do the math. I was aghast at the price, but I have no choice.
We pay the dry cleaner about $75 a month and we pay $220 a month for a maid service at home, and we pay another company to do our yard work that runs another $100 per month. We also average about $400 per month on restaurants. I've kind of pondered if I could combine all of those at some point and hire a live-in maid, but I don't think that's enough.
