Oh, wait, I forgot, maybe you can wear them for a week before disposing of them.

Can you get four days wear out of them like you can with regular underwear? Frontwards, backwards, turn them inside out and repeat the front to back routine.

I don't think a $1.25 a day is much for when you are on the road. Sure beats washing undies in a hotel room sink. Would of loved then when living in a ditch at Khe Sahn long ago. Hated washing my delicates in my steel pot

Hoverbug,
I am assuming you are a Khe Sanh Marine!
Where did you get those delicates? Needless to say, well, let's see the best way to say this publicly.
Ah, we didn't have ANY delicates to wash. We did have the steel pot though, but it was used for mulligan stew or whatever you want to call it.
We did have pimentos we found scrounging through the destroyed messhall, after crawling through an opening to gain access.
Anyway, Semper Fi!
Took awhile getting use to wearing delicates after the 68 Khe Sanh Resort Tour. Sure destroyed my mom's advice about making sure of having clean underwear, just in case you have to go to the hospital. But, then again, no delicates, no problem. lol.

I ran across this concept a few years ago on a Japanese site.  I think, I'll continue to run mine through the washer every week and wear one clean pair a day.

1.25 a day? That is high. If you go to Walmart or Sears, they sell real ones for $1 or under on the clearance rack. (At least the women's ones, not sure of mens.) I would rather wear the real ones and toss them if the mood struck me. LOL

Ha! A pair of these in your pocket would make all mom's proud when you arrive at the hospital after being run over by a truck
I was in the Army XPlorer;at the Khe Sanh Resort Feb & Mar '71 flying Dustoff. It was an operation called Lom Son 719. Semper Fi to you sir! Many thanks for your service. Oh,we prepared our gourmet "C's" in the exhust tube of the Huey  Happy Trails!!

Same back at you Hoverbug, We sure were happy to see you folks, ummm, along with our Marines at the end of the seige.
Besides you fellows brought the beer.
You Army folks always did have the best cook stoves.
FYI, you was and is one of us. There is a Khe Sanh Marine site, that you can go to and register your service at Khe Sanh if you choose to.
You sure would be welcomed there.
Semper Fi, and many happy trails to you and yours.
God Bless, and just simply - Thanks!
John

Don't know if I should admit this or not. I thought it was a great idea but the DW thinks I lost my mind.
We flew from NY to CA this summer to take a driving tour. A week or so before we left, JCP had my preferred brand of skivvies on sale & I was about due for some new ones so I snapped them up.
When packing for the trip, the DW asked if I wanted to open the new ones & it struck me!  Why not take the old ones & just toss them in the garbage each day. Didn't have to pack dirty skivvies to bring home & made room in the suitcase for stuff we bought.
 Worked great if I do say so myself.
