Every 5 days.

Having a King size bed,It takes a day to remove them ...3 days to launder them ....and a day to put them back on.

We have 6 sets to use and yes a higher thread count is the way to go.

My arms get tired trying to get the sheet to reach the other side

The 'help' changes them every day. It's an odd feeling, somebody messing around with the place you sleep. But it makes 'Her' happy.

Wink BETTER sheets

My wife washes ours about every 2 weeks. Once in a while she will put on one of the satin sheets ( They're SLIKKERY ). One word of advice if you sneeze hard - DON'T wear satin PJ's on satin sheets.

I replace ours about every other day because I sweat like I'm about to go to the electric chair when I sleep.

Havn't changed mine in 10 months. Seriously. There so stretched out I have to put the corners back on before I go to bed. They stink and are discolored in the center too. Maybe I'll put a new set on sometime this week.
Back when I had the X living with me, she changed them every 3 days. She also had 1200 thread count silk sheets on the bed, which have now been sitting in my closet for a year

Dude, 10 months?? no wonder they dont have the elasticity anymore, they are stankified and wont stretch until the grease is washed out.

Mine are going in the washer as we speak for their semi monthly washing

Eh, 2-3 weeks probably. No one really learned me that they needed to be changed as a kid. I probably went a year or more when I was around 10-12.

One advantage of being single..."you never have to change your sheets...who cares? When one wears out, I put on another one..." Mark Lowry.

Me? Once a week. I am finally single, but by no means boring...lol!

Red face Stiff Sheets ??

The best thing about stiff, smelly sheets is that you can use them for a tent when you go BEAR hunting. The aroma will scare the deer away and the bear will thing a rotting carcas is "on for lunch".
