If you're up for black friday shopping, JCPenney is going to have bath towels for $3 while they last. Or maybe that was Thursday night? Not sure. But there are bound to be deals this weekend.

We have JCPenney and Wal-Mart towels. They both work well and hold up well.

I forgot I had kohl’s cash I had to use today from my sons work shoes and getting dd a coat. THIS is exactly why I love kohl’s. $19.54 for 4 hand towels, 4 wash cloths and 4 bath towels. I got them in the color I want for our newly decorated bathroom that I never got towels for

and I have $20 kohl’s cash.

Ours are from JCPENNEY and I think they are on sale right now. We got them a couple years ago for about $6 a piece.

Default Re: Thick, reasonably priced bath towels?

I got some at both Shopko and Kohl's last night. I ended getting the $5.99 ones, rather than the $2.99 ones, because they were fluffier Also, the ones that Shopko has for 4 for $10 are fluffier than the cheap ones at Kohl's. So I got 4 of those. I believe you have to buy 4 to get the deal, though.

Kohls is one of those stores where if you know how to play the game (coupon codes plus kohls cash) you can get AH-MAZING deals!

Glad you found some awesome towels at a great price! I love our Kohs towels.

Default Re: Thick, reasonably priced bath towels?

One thing that helps a little with towels is how you wash them. Won't revive threadbare, but stiff or non-absorbent is often buildup from hard water or fabric softener. I put Oxy Clean in the wash, and white vinegar in the rinse instead of fabric softener, and that combo seems to keep them soft. I've added Charlie's Hard Water Booster, too, because our water here is ridiculously hard, but just the oxy and vinegar in a hot wash seemed to be enough most places we've lived.
