What to do with sweaty gym clothes?

I usually wear the same ones two or three days in a row, and wash every week and a half- 2 weeks. (I don't have my own laundry machine, it's expensive at the laundromat.) I don't want to ball them up and leave them in a bag because I'm afraid they'll grow mold or something. I've been laying them out in the bathroom for the time being, but its not a great solution.

I can't leave them at the gym, either, they charge you to keep lockers overnight.

Also, when I do throw them in the laundry for good, what can I do to keep them from stinking up everything in the basket? Fabreeze?

    I'd wash them by hand in a sink full of warm soapy water. Rinse well, squeeze as much water out as possible, and hang them up on your shower curtain rod. It's like a clothesline inside. But don't use metal wire hangers, they'll rust your clothes. Use cheap plastic hangers.

    You should at least rinse it in the bath (when showering) and let it stand in your bathroom to remove the sweat off

    well you could hand wash them, but make sure you always wear deodorant. it would be best to just wash them.
