Some people said they would try the hack to save money, while others said they have been using it for years.

"Save energy, but your clothes are already ready."

Karen Sheppard replied, "I've been using the wool dryer balls for a while now and they've definitely cut the drying time in half.

"I bought them from Home Bargains, but Amazon also sold them."

Marie Armor wrote: "We also take out the larger pieces after 30 minutes, give them a good shake and put them back again, this also speeds up the drying time.

Tonia Morris said: "I love dryer balls, they keep things from clumping together so everything dries evenly."
