I was just wondering how often you guys change the sheets on your bed.

Every 2-3 weeks, or whenever I have the time to do laundry...which will be done this Saturday.

Every week and usually on Saturday unless some "activity" has occurred and then its right after. And I dont think I need to spell out the "activity" part....lol. The summertime I can the sheets twice a week if we dont use the a/c.
Then there is the kind of sheets that get put on the bed. I have at least a 600 thread count sheet set that gets put on and I have 5 sets that way the same sheets are not in constant use and things last longer. In the summer those sheets get used. The wintertime we use the flannels. And I have 5 sets of those as well. Nothing like climbing into bed on a cold winter night and feeling the comfort of flannel next to your skin. Plus add the heat from 2 cats and my partner and its sheer heaven.

Every week usually, more often in summer because here I don't have A/C. I use cotton in winter too, because the heating stays on 24h per day and otherwise with flannel it would be too hot.

I have five sets of Martha Stewart Everyday Sheets. They are WONDERFUL and have held up beautifully. They are from K-mart. THANK YOU MARTHA!!

It really varies with us too, much like what's already been posted. The type of action the sheets have seen is the absolute deciding factor of course.
Might be washing sheets, and especially the king sized mattress pads, more often now that the Affinities have arrived. At least until the novelty has worn off, then it will be back to the "hey, how long have these sheets been on here?" routine. Sad commentary when the "action" reason isn't as much of a factor as it used to be . . .

1-2 weeks... Mostly depends on how much hair the cats get into the bed...
Usually weekly, sometimes up to two weeks. I used to have 5 or 6 sets, but now only 2. Wintertime, 3 sets of flannels.
Well you guys are gonna die with this one.
I wash the sheets after every 4th night of sleep. With 3 dogs in the house and a partner, who goes to the bedroom after dinner to "recline" has all the dogs on the bed with him till I come to bed. Hence, after every 4th night of sleep.

Every other day
I wash my sheets every other day because I enjoy the fresh aroma of hung out bedclothes.I use Gain w/bleach that smells so great!i also like a generic brand(H.E.B)that smells real nice.I also hang my towels and do not use fabric softner on either.

For me... I like the feeling of clean sheets and I don't let it go more then a week. They get changed a little more frequently if there is a "need" to change or if it's been exceptionally warm (without the A/C).

At our house it's weekly as well, unless as Mike said, some "activity" has taken place. We wash 'em and put 'em right back on. We have a set of flannels for winter plus an electric mattress pad, helps to keep things very toasty.

I wash sheets once a week in the summer, and every other week in the winter. Unless there is "activity" which is very, very, very, rare.

when they look like they need to be vacuumed
I love the crisp feel and scent of clean sheets, so I wash sheets twice a week. I have only one set. They go from the washer to the clothesline/dryer, then back onto the bed.
And they're white cotton sheets, so they can be bleached and washed in hot water.

I try to change the sheets every week, unless the muddy dogs have made it to the bed before I can stop them. ;-) Sometimes it might be 2 weeks. Then, when it rains, it may be every couple of days. Four wet cocker spaniels can make a big mess. My husband complains about the dog dirt!
