Dry Cleaning cotton shirts won't really get them clean. Most of the stains and daily grime and sweat (etc.) on the shirt will be water based and dry cleaning just doesn't clean water based stains.

My Suggestion:

1. Buy enough shirts for 2 weeks
2. Use a laundry service that returns the shirts to you.
3. Enjoy freshly laundered, crisp shirts on your back.

This advice will also stop your shirts smelling like they've been worn for a few days too.

MY SUGGESTION?

buy wrinkle free shirts from jc penny's. STAFFORD BRAND. (equal to the much more expensive wrinkle free shirts from lands end) they are wonderful, and i NEVER have to iron, if i get them right from the dryer and hang them up!

dryer and hang them up!

Yeah... funny you say this. My wife and I were going through the closets last night to purge some old stuff and reclaim some space. We both commented on how well the JCP mens clothing I have has held up and looked good, and for a reasonable price. I know there are some shirts there that I still wear that must be 10 years old, and they still look presentable.
