Ok, so don't ask me what this expression means.
I guess it means a whole lot of towels. lolz
I was alerted to a great deal on bath towels at Kohl's a couple of weeks ago, through a deal blog I subscribe to.
Nice 100% Cotton bath sheet sized towels, regularly $9.99 each, after numerous discounts and a clearance price, they were $2.20 each, including shipping.
I got $160+ worth of towels for $35.27 OOP.
Yes, I know 16 towels is a lot......but in order to get ALL the discounts you had to spend that much/get that many.
I wanted the lavender colored towels but they sold out as I was ordering.....dang it!
In the end I bought 8 sandstone(tan)towels and 8 dove grey(they look white to me!)towels.
I haven't bought towels since 2003 or so...about 10 years now.
I had picked up my most recent towels purchased at Ollie's(Good Stuff Cheap!)on a large markdown but nothing matched. Bright yellow, turquoise, purple, navy blue......the bottom line was more important than the colors/matching and I could live with that. Even if they didn't "go" together colorwise, the quality was good.
Then my daughter started doing laundry.......and started dying her hair.....so between those 2 events(using bleach in the colored laundry and getting hair dye on some)my supply of towels are pretty sad looking these days.
Ask Tania/Tanner.....she's seen them! lolz
I didn't want to replace things like this until all the children were grown and out of the house, so they might actually have a fighting chance to stay nice.
You parents out there know what I mean, right? ;-)
As my daughter left home last year, and has just set up housekeeping in her new home in Louisiana I may see if she wants some of the nicer of the old towels and I can bring them down on my next trip South.
Hubs will take some for rags for his workbench out in the garage.
I wish this sale had come up BEFORE I went and bought #2 Son a supply of towels(at Ollie's on sale)for college. I didn't want to send him with our towels as I didn't have anything to replace them with at that time, but now it's too late to return the ones I bought for him(past 30 days). His aren't high quality ones...after all, he's an 18 yr. old male and they will all be gray within 2 months time-either from overuse and no washing or from washing them with all his black clothes, so I didn't spend much to get "nice" towels. lolz
Tan and white are neutral tones and classics that I can make work in most any bathroom color scheme no matter where we move to and what the color scheme is in the bathrooms there.
I figure you can never have too many towels as long as they all fit into your linen closet, right? 8-)
