Save Money On Paper Towels – Shamwow Review

Paper towels can be expensive to use. We use so many of them and sometimes the cheap varieties don’t work all that well. They are very convenient but that convenience comes at a cost. I am not advocating never using paper towels but I think you can save money by sometimes using a re-usable towel. By using a re-usable towel you can save wear and tear on your regular towels also. I know my bath towels and dish clothes last much longer if I can reduce the number of times I need use them and hence wash them.Now this particular re-usable towel I am talking about is a chamois type towel. I have two towels similar to this towel that I purchased years ago that are quite similar to the Shamwow towels detailed in the advertisment. I have washed these towels a bunch of times and they look exactly the same as the day I purchased them. Now, I don’t mind telling you I paid a lot more for them ($20.00 for the bath size and $15.00 for the hand towel size) than the Shamwow towels are selling for.

You would not believe how many uses these towels have. My primary use for my towel is hair drying. The great thing about these types of towels is they cut down on tangles in your hair. Since the towel is so absorbent, I just wrap my hair in towel and squeeze gently. I don’t have to rub my hair with it the way you do a terry cloth towel. I have many fewer tangles in my hair as a result.

I also use my towel as a travel towel. When I am staying at someone’s house I don’t like to take an extra towel to dry my hair so I use my chamois towel to dry my hair. The Shamwow towel dries really quick so it is dry enough to go in my suitcase a few hours later. I also like to bring it on camping trips because it doesn’t take up as much space in your suitcase as a terry cloth towel.

I also like the Shamwow because it isn’t so rough on your skin as a terry cloth towel. If you use fabric softener to get your towels soft ,they are not as absorbent. The chamois type towel solves this problem – it is naturally soft and very absorbent. You can also use it as a swimmer’s towel. Since swimmers have to dry themselves so frequently sometimes between the chorine and the constant rubbing with rough towels their skin gets chapped. With Shamwow your skin doesn’t get irritated. If you pet has sensitive skin or if just want a really soft towel to dry your pet with consider using the Shamwow for his/her dry off towel.



You can also use this towel for polishing your car because it doesn’t scratch. You can also use it for drying items that you handwash. I know cheapskater’s wash their sweaters by hand to avoid the high cost of dry cleaning. We also wash our delicates by hand so they last longer. The Shamwow towel is great for drying these types of items.

The best thing about these towels is they are really our economical. The cost for a set of 4 larges towels and 4 small towels is only $20.00. That comes out to about $2.50 a towel. A roll of paper towels is going to cost you at least $1.25 and you may use a roll or two a week. Depending on your usage the Shamwow will pay for itself in a few months or weeks. Plus it will help you use your bath towels less and you won’t have to buy new ones so soon. You can get these cheaper in the stores. I have priced chamois type towels – those sold for cars and those sold as swimmer’s towels and you just can’t find them any cheaper.

Switching to reusable towels for a least part of your cleaning and drying needs is an easy way to help our enviornment. This really is a terrific product and will save you money.
