Just go through the checkout lane at Dollar General Market with 16 packs of baby wipes.
 I guarantee you’ll get a funny look. I just smiled at the clerk and said “I’ve got a team of snipers in Afghanistan who have no shower facilities; they’re begging for baby wipes.” Her response was “No way…you’re kidding, right?” Nope, ‘fraid not. Oh, and for future reference, at Dollar General Market you can get 16 packs of baby wipes with 80 wipes per pack for $30 and change. They’ve got twin sheet sets for $9 per set; they’re 180 thread count, which is kinda thin, but I think our guys would be so thrilled to have something to put between themselves and their mangy mattresses they wouldn’t give a flip about thread count. (Most guys don’t even think about details like that anyway, and especially not in a war zone.) So I’m saving my nickels and dimes and praying for a miracle that will help me get these guys some sheets to sleep on.
Onward and upward…

That is funny bout the baby wipes. I go to Dollar General from time to time to see what they have. That is where I get some of the stuff I hang on my walls. Doesn’t cost hardly anything and looks like it did…..

I crushed a disc carrying all those wipes inside! LOL. Did you tell the checker, “yes way”?
