Abstract: A cleaner calculator for maintaining a count representative of the number of times that a garment has been worn between dry cleanings. The cleaner calculator includes a tag stem with an attachment section for hanging the cleaner calculator, a promotional label area for promoting the dry cleaner, and a base section. The cleaner calculator also includes a turn-dial indicator rotatably mounted on the base section of the tag stem. An indexing mechanism provides an indexed engagement between the turn-dial indicator and the base section of the tag stem. Count indicia are provided with numbers ranging from three to five as determined by the specific dry cleaner. The count indicia indicate the number of times a piece of clothing has been worn between dry cleanings, and the count indicia can be incremented each time the garment is worn by rotating the turn-dial.
