I tried it and it seemed to work for me. The towel wicks the moisture but it isn't as wet / damp as the rest of the clothing!

Thank you for the tip. We recently installed a water softener (a service from a company called Culligan, as DIY water softener system is banned by my town) and it has made quite a difference. @Kevin – that’s actually very true.

I use Calgon laundry booster. Lengthens the life of the machine AND the clothes. In the same situation, a cup of vinegar into the dishwasher works just as well as using a product like Jet-Dry.

That's a very good tip. Washing your clothes or sheets every now and then in hot water is fine - but if you do it every time you do laundry, then it's expensive. @Floosyjane - good tip, thanks!

Shaking them out keeps them from balling up and having to run the dryer longer. I'm sure it works the same for other heavy items.

Sure, it does wear your sheets out, but I would rather be healthy. Other items can be washed in cold water. By the way, make sure to replace pillows once a year and wash them once a month, according to their care tags. I would recommend using a clothesline instead of a dryer, especially for things like towels and undergarments. Dryers wear out clothes, but they do (as stated) eliminate the need to iron if you fold the clothes right away! I'd also recommend Charlie's Soap or Nellie's All-Natural Products. Nellie's makes PVC-free dryerballs with scent inserts that can be used in the place of chemical-enhanced dryer sheets. Good tips!
