A very strong recommendation on storing
Microfiber towels after you have washed and dried them.
Absolutely do NOT leave them tied up in a trash bag in the laundry room to keep the cat away from them.
If you do, they will likely be thrown out with the trash by someone else in your family, or maybe even yourself, if you are old and forgetful like me.
ALL of my DF towels, most of my pak shak, most of my Meg's, and about 100 or so of the general duty towels I buy from ADs, along with a couple of my favorite Waffle Weaves from Tropi-care.
All gone. The wife and I just spent the last 30 minutes tearing the house apart looking for the trash bags. Can't find them anywhere..
And the funny thing is, I am not neas as mad as I would expect to be, probably because I am pretty sure it was me that threw them away.
several hunderd dollars worth of towels gone ..
Well, I am off to finish putting things away in my finally finished garage, and to drink some

That really sucks...sorry to hear about that.
I guess that's worse than what happened to my MF's the other day...
I hand washed all of them (60+ towels) and hung them on the line to dry. Well my mom needed the line so she decided to take them all off and fold them (they weren't even fully dry yet
) If that wasn't bad enough she dropped 3/4's of them onto the lawn, thus covering them pieces of grass and etc. I had to spend over an hour going through each towel one at a time picking everything off and re-washed them. At least I still have mine, that really sucks Gipraw.

Honestly, I think I would do a few things:
1. Scream
2. Cry
3. Buy more, still crying.
That would put me into NEGATIVE towels if I threw 100 of them away... I dont even have DF or Pakshak towels.... that would really make me cry...
FWIW, I use the gallon size ziplocs... Each one holds approx 8-10 ADS towels, or 2-4 supreme shines... Then, I can see what I am getting into, they can be dropped without fear (often are), gotten wet without worry, etc. Granted, putting them in and vaccuum sealing (via pressing air out) takes time, but I'd say its well worth it. Great space saver, too.
