I just plunked $6 in quarters into a machine to wash my clothes (edit: and another $1 for the dryer), and I feel like I'm getting ripped off.

6 for the washing machine, 75 cents for the dryer

Everybody here should look up the user manual for the model of commercial washing machine/dryer you use. Often times, they won't change the password or key slot to unlock the settings and you can just give yourself a free cycle. That's what I do

applies to anything with a passcode or secret menu tbh. Building access control/intercom panels especially I've noticed. Though it seems like it would get you kicked out if they ever notice. Depends how oblivious the owners are ig.
