Stupid Question: What are typical Dry Cleaning prices?

Ok so I hardly own anything that I dry clean, DH same thing. I just brought 2 of DH's suits, one of my skirts and DH's winter coat and was surprised by the price!!

Any insight? What's a regular price for these kinds of items?

a jacket could cost anywhere from $50 and up

suits I think are around 15

skirts are around 7-10 depending on length

dress shirts laundered and pressed i think are 4 or 5

I haven't been bringing that much stuff to the cleaners anymore, and when I do I group a bunch of stuff together, but for the most part i think the prices are right (where I go at least)

hmm based on that I guess the place I went to has decent prices....it's:

$8.75 per suit ($17.50 for both)
$6.50 for the skirt (knee length)
$9.00 for the coat (it's DH's, short--like hip length)

Total $33.00

So I guess it's not bad? Any other input?

I would say a jacket costs about 25-50 depending. Pants are about 8-10, Tops, sweaters 5-8. I am guessing because I do cleaning in bulk!

Re: Stupid Question: What are typical Dry Cleaning prices?

those prices sound good to me

I pay normally $10 a suit- DH wears at least 3 a week

.99 for laundered shirts- 5 a week

$3-$4 for Dry clean shirts

$5 for pants

$5 for a skirt

I easily spend $100-$150 in dry cleaning a month
