Funny you should post this today because DH and I just had this conversation when we were folding laundry today.

DH commented that we have too many pairs of underwear. I hate doing laundry so I disagreed. lol

DD has 35 pairs! lol. No idea how she acquired so many, and she's getting 6 more for Christmas (DH insists on getting everyone new underwear and socks each year).

I lost count at 30 for me, BUT women need more because they need different styles/colours depending on what they are wearing.

The boys have less (maybe because boys come in 4 packs usually and girls are 6 packs). DS has 20 but again he's getting more for Christmas.

I stocked up when men's underwear were 70% off at Target this Summer so DH is getting 8 new pairs for Christmas. Won't he be surprised. I can see the look on his face now. lol

I know my count is over 30. I suppose it would depend on how regularly you do laundry.

I lost count at 300. =/ My DH probably 30-40 pairs. I do laundry everyday but just keep buying them, lol.

And if you don't have time for laundry... you can always get the disposable stuff...
