When I make dinner I usually spill about a third of it on the counter and a third of it on the stove top. This, understandably, pisses Valerie off. Before, back when the bright ray of environmental knowledge had yet to light upon my life, I would grab about six hundred paper towels and valiantly sop up whatever I could. This cost us a lot of money and, more importantly, the souls of a thousand trees.

So we bought a billion towels! My mom picked up 60 white cotton towels at Costco for 16.95$! That’s 0.28$ per towel! Those Seventh Generation paper towels can cost as much as .02$ per towel, and they only last once. You can reuse these cotton towels hundreds of times.

Of course a modern urban socialite like yourself doesn’t need 60 towels. Splitting a pack of towels like this with three or even six people would leave everyone with plenty for only a couple of bucks.

Sharing bulk packages like this is the way to go.
