    Default Places for inexpensive, but decent quality, beach towels?

    Looking for a couple beach towels (for adults) and don't want to spend a ton but would still like decent quality ones...any ideas of places to look?

    We just bought some from Costco that were under $10. Really cute bright cabana stripes, but they also had some polka dots. They are huge and nice thickness. The cashier told me she bought some of those a couple years ago and they are still soft and look brand new. The ones I've seen at target under $10 seemed small and /or thin.

    I like the target ones, I don't like beach towels that are too thick, since they take longer to dry.

    I like The Big One from Kohl's. We have a ton of them and they have held up very well.

    Costco's are the best. Thick and last forever.

    Kohl's Big One towels go on super sale, and I will buy a few when they do 30% plus $10 off $30. They're thinner but dry very quickly.

    Costco is a good bet.

    I really like the IKEA FRAJEN bath sheet or the SOMMAR beach towel. Not too thick but not as thin as the cheap Target towels, and they're large.

    Otherwise Costco is the best bet - awesome beach towels, great quality but yes - they are thick!

    I agree with PP, I like towels that aren't too huge and thick. Easier for packing up and they dry faster. I've had good luck with Target. Thanks to the posters who mentioned the Big One towels from Kohls. I have $20 in kohls cash to spend, this will be perfect!

    Following this thread - -

    I too like VERY thin towels - - the lighter the better. Faster drying and more room in my bag - since i end up carrying ALL of them!

    Love these too. They are a great size and not too thick so dry faster and easier to carry. Costco ones are too thick for me. Kohl's often has these on sale for $8-10.
