The texture takes a bit of getting used to at first, pat dry rather than rub dry if you know what I mean. However, they are very absorbent, and very quick drying, and packs down to hardly anything, so I would definitely recommend them.

I find that if you take a decent flannel (89p Dunelm Mill) which you wring out after your shower and wipe yourself down the microfibre towel is then perfect for that final dry. We also bought the £5 ones from ebay and love them

We just take good flannels which soon dry me (and I'm a very large adult!!)

They are easy to pack, take up very little space and dry extremely quickly.

Clare 2377, I got a couple of them at £1.99 each (bath size) from Wilkinsons in Barnsley - they had reduced them.  Have you tried the old focus store at Stairfoot because I think I have seen them in there too, although maybe not as cheap.

Was going to suggest quality save but you've already been, thats where i got mine last year. As already suggested try B&M at stairfoot or the one near focus at bottom of harbro hill (may still be called au natural but is part of b&m) i got a bath towel size from there last year for £3.

I can recommend the £5 Microfibre towels from Ebay. I was well impressed. I bought two and they are going with me this summer on my travels.
