Default Who needs paper towels and napkins?

I never buy paper towels or napkins. Instead, the wife and I buy those white terry cloths for your car that come 12 for $3.00 at the discount store. You eat, use them, and then throw them in the wash and re-use them a zillon times. Save the paper stuff for fancy doo-dahs and when guests come over. Think about the savings over a year and how many trees you'll save.

$3.00 per year for a dozen white terry clothes which are superior in absorbancy

compared to:

$2.00 package of paper napkins x 12 months (or however many you use).

= $ 24.00 per year

This is even better if you have kids!
