Those look really nice, but I think they are probably different from the wool ones people go nuts over. I've never used either. One of these days I want to check them out. They certainly have a loyal following around here.

Reply to comment by mike_pants in Discovery Trekking hiking/travel towel. Can go from immersed in water to dry in a matter of minutes. Rolls up smaller than a thin t-shirt. Been using my full grown man strength to wring this thing out for over 10 years now and it could still pass as new. by Hybrid978
I'd say this one is more of an all purpose type of towel. Can put it in a day bag or even in my pocket and just forget it's there.
They actually make a much larger one that I personally wouldn't have had any use for.

Same with an old hoodie of mine im wearing at this moment. My mother got it for me in 5th grade, high school, a deployment and college. Its frayed at the wrists and hood and the lettering is coming loose but the main body of it has no issues.

Are the ones at costco the wool ones (that cost hundreds) or are they fleece (that are like $50)?

Haha, I know you're joking. But it's a really good deal right?
I guess it's a really old, the label says it's Abington style, but it looks very different from the pics of Abington high cut sneakers on crown northampton's website.
Owner says he doesn't know how to style with this pair so he basically let it sit in closet for years.
Feels pretty high quality in hands, but I don't know

Reach out directly and ask. Both to split a payment or where they retail at.

I have never thought about the age of my peeler. It's definitely more than 10 years old.

I think that’s “bodum” molded on the handle, and the blade looks ceramic.

Looks like ceramic? I have a red Kyocera ceramic peeler that’s still going strong after 15 years.

Exactly. Which is why when I get tired of standing go do something else for awhile (great to remind yourself to take breaks) or I lie down for a bit. For me if the option is there to sit, I end up sitting down and not realizing how long I've been sitting. Standing also guarantees you keep moving around, you can't stand without moving around for very long, unlike sitting where you can easily not move at all.

We got a really nice artificial tree this year from a friend, and we plan to have it for decades.
Side note, putting your tree on a pedestal is fucking brilliant

The "buy it for life" might even be the detergent or washing machine you use. Nice color preservation.
