Microfiber towel finds. Bright but affordable.

Searching for a microfiber travel towel I found the affordable solution.

Microfiber towels are a poly-blend and dry really fast. I wouldn't want to use them daily, but for the occasional travel they are great. I had bought some for friends and was researching for myself.

Expensive. Well, in the $20-30 range (found one packaged for yoga at twice that). I finally found something I could afford though. It was in the auto section of the store, bright orange for detailing cars.

Yup. Exact same fabric just bright orange vs pale blue or green or some other color that makes you think "Hmmm, travel, subtle".

Orange? I can live with that. Cost? $6.00 for 8 15X15 inch ones. Granted, I could have paid $28 for one 15X30, but hey, I know how to thread a needle. That comes to $6.00 for 4 towels that are 15X30. If I wanted a "regular" sized towel, would sew a couple more together.

30X30 microfiber towel for $3.00? Naw, too big to pack, will stick with 15X30 inches.

And, I can clean my car with the extras.

Bwahahahahahaha for automotive selling the same thing for another purpose at a fraction of the cost.

1. Microfiber towels and cloths are just the coolest things.

As long as you sort them by color and wash them separately, they're great for everything from personal wash cloths to household cleaning rags to dish towels and whatever else you can think to do with them.

Last forever too.

2. And I can tell when I need to put lotion on my hands. They sure do stick to those

little nicks. I love finding things in odd places that are the same as more expensive "marked for use" things.

4. Good tip -

I've got the yoga ones (I do hot yoga from time to time) ... but much cheaper from this source. They work great for drying hair if you have long thick hair like I do.
