Washing clothes in PI While thier, short time

[Frank2002]

I am just wondering what you guys use to wash your clothes when on holidays in PI? Don't say soap and water either hahha

I mean do they have laund mats, or places were you just drop of your clothes to get washed and pressed and how much does this cost? My last trip I stayed like 5 days and brought back alot of dirty clothes:-)))))) This time I am planing on staying like 6 weeks so I will have to wash some where. I will be staying in cebu most of this time.

thanx in advance

Close to Ayala mall is a full service laundry called Lavendera Ko.
They charge 30 pesos per kilo, much, much cheaper than any hotel laundry.

Brian's idea is good, but a b__ manner......

Of course there are laundry services in PI mostly in the cities unless your gonna be at the top of the mountain where you have to learn how to wash your clothes through the hot spring(joking), are you gonna be at Cebu City?
Your chance to find a laundry service is high.....

Hotel's have it's own laundry services but quite expensive compare to a laundry place, the maximum rate P50.00 per kgm.

I will be in Cebu city for most of my trip. When I was in Korea I had a very hard time to wash clothes thier. thier was no laund mat that I could find, so I had to wash my stuff in the tub, (My poor back) :-)))))) Finding a gf who is good at scrubbing did sound funny though hahha

Oh man.... This is a specialty in PI, (and everywhere else I think), washing clothes in the river.  (But I'm here in Parusskyville right now and mine does it in the bathtub!).

Brian,

When you were in Olongapo, did someone wash your clothes in the Shyt River? ROFL!

Hey Ray,

The Agusan River is close behind our house. My brother-in-law keeps telling about the 15-20+ foot man-eating crocodiles in the river. Every once in a while they eat somebody. In fact, the Santa Ana Kahimonan Abayan festival held every year in Butuan City to honor the patron saint Santa Anna, who keeps the crocks at bay and usually a little further up stream.

Fortunately, there are people around (some professionals) who are willing to wash the Daut Ng Kano's ;oD "BIG clothes"...including a few gays. My wife won't let them wash my underware. ;o))) I shower and change clothes 2-3 times a day so they don't smell too bad and aren't very dirty. : Fortunately we have running water, but there is a well nearbye. The relatives won't charge, but I get them to accept anyway.

I got the river from.

Definitely, wouldn't leave home without a good old bar of Tide in my pocket!

heh heh.

Getting Joe clothes washed in PI anywhere should be easy as stink for the unafraid, and those with a few extra pesos in their pocket - the ladies would be going for that job quickly.  Sounds like a great way to meet chicks too.  Hey sweetie, wow you sure got nice hands, how abouts havin a San Miguel with me and let's work on this bag of clothes here... got any of that bar soap they use here?

Hmmm.  Sounds better than my latest strategy for single men... hang out at the kindergarten here in Novosibirsk in the early morning and wait for the single mom's to come by - (*it's a feast!*).  But that's all I need, my picture in the papers with the headline: "American man jailed in Siberia waiting at Russian kindergarten trying to meet girls"...

Hey Brian,

Russian ladies like dogs, right?  Maybe if you borrow Igor's dog and take a stroll in the park...... uh, then again, maybe not --ROFL!

Yeah, I think he'd eat the other dogs first too... but it would be a great sympathy thing, to have such an ugly mutt around.

(and as of last week, he ain't got any prettier either)

Heh.

Hey Brian,

You really went all the way to Siberia in the dead of winter just to pick up single moms at the kindergarten? Man, you must be desperate! ROTFLMAOCUMLTNTPIMPA!

Are you sure that you don't want one of us to fix you up with a nice lady from a warmer climate??? Maybe May has a cousin? :-)

Hi Brian,

Just don't use the child to translate your romantic come-on lines to their mother. ;o))) I should have given you a pair of my see-behind spy sunglasses. 8o)

Find a woman as soon as you get off the plane, stick with her for the next six weeks and your laundry will be just dandy when you arrive home!
