We did this a few years ago and got a front loading washer/dryer. That was expensive enough. I just wish I had the money to do all of the other "Eco" projects I would like to do. And, pshaw, 30 is NOT old (our house is now 81!)

I have been better about this AND I have been trying to buy BETTER things when I do buy them because they tend to last longer. While I can get distracted very easily at Target, I tend NOT to buy things because they are just on sale. I will wait to buy something until it is on sale (if I can). I also stay far away from the $1 section.
