I like my terrycloth Threshold towels from Target, but I might be seeking out microfiber for my next ones. -- nm - con_carne Aug 2, 08:51
I buy quick drying towels now. -- (link) - amanda jeans Aug 2, 08:06
I bought some at Costco that I still love, but that was years ago and I'm sure they've changed. -- nm - Meg Aug 2, 07:54 2
- Although I did find softness is dependent on dye color. Lighter colors are softer. -- nm - Meg Aug 2, 08:02
- Yup, Costco -- nm - JaxSean Aug 2, 08:01
I go to TJ Maxx or similar store and see what feels nice. I'm one of those cheapskate luxury shoppers. -- nm - loosilu Aug 2, 07:42
remember if it says "Made in the USA" it's probably made by slave labor (prisoners). there's no ethical way to buy cotton, really. -- nm - chicken daddy Aug 2, 07:39 9
- yeah yeah yeah slave labor human trafficking blah blah blah I'm just interested in how soft and absorbent it is -- nm - Max Aug 2, 07:41 8
  - If you find some please let me know as I hate my bath towels. They don't absorb well at all and feel very cold the second they get wet. -- nm - Krusty Aug 2, 07:44 5
    - thrift store towels are great. you can get a nice rough, super-absorbent towel. -- nm - chicken daddy Aug 2, 07:45 4
      - What do you mean by thrift store? Target? - Krusty Aug 2, 07:57 3
        
        yes, like goodwill or something.. used towels. used towels are great. you can get some nice basically new granny towels. -- nm - chicken daddy Aug 2, 08:01 2
        
        I can wear used clothing but I can't do used towels. -- nm - Krusty Aug 2, 08:27
        
        I think I would feel weird buying someone’s used towels. -- nm - znufrii Aug 2, 08:10
  - 100% cotton and you have to feel them. the very smooth/shiny ones don't take water off very well and are for looks. find something rougher. -- nm - chicken daddy Aug 2, 07:43 1
    - Agreeance. -- nm - loosilu Aug 2, 07:44
