Default Where to buy 100% American made Cotton Towels for Zaino

So i've been using Zaino for about 6 years now. I've been using the same towels since then. So i go out of my room walk back to the laundry room and open the dryer, and.... gone! All my white towels gone, stolen! I've had t-shirts and socks stolen (i can't imagine a guy wearing another mans t-shirts and socks!) from the dryers here in the barracks but you shouldn't mess with a mans car towels.

So anyway i need to buy new ones so where can i get them? I know its probably been posted hundreds of times, and most likely in the detailing section, but im posting here anyway.

Online Dave. Go find a place that sells Fieldcrest towels and order some. Kohl's, bed bath and beyond are a couple of places.

Look in the appearence section.
There is a nice write up on people using "micro-fiber" towels instead.

making room for the 2nd hawk to live in your garage!
j/k jerm i don't want to take over your garage. i'm sure you want to put the focus or tahoe in there, but even so we still need to take a cool pic with them both in there. Its still months away we will figure something out. Maybe by some miracle mom and dads garage will be cleaned out and i can put it in there, that is what i prefer but its about the same chances Pontiac will bring the fiero back.

Ya i would expect you and Angus to drive it while i was gone. 2 of the FEW that are aloud.

I edited my subject, i apply with the zaino applicator pads, what i meant was to wash and dry, and take the zaino off.

A just bought a package of 16 microfiber towels at Sam's Club for less than $5.00. I noticed when I was in Bed, Bath & Beyond last night that they want $4.87 for just ONE microfiber towel! I have used several of the MF towels I bought at Sam's for various uses around the house, they work great and they come out of the wash just like new!

Walmart sells a package of 12 each for a reasonable price. My wife just bought me a package of them....I will ask about the price..

PS - way cheaper than on the internet!!!!
