$2.99 Zymol spray (quick detailer spray+wipe)
$2.99 Meguiars Detail brush
$2.99 Meguiars quick detail sponge
$2.99 Meguiars Interior Brush
$1.00 3x pack of yellow towls
$1.50 4x packs microfabric towels

They also had tons of Meguiars brushes/tire shine, I couldnt find any turtle wax car wash. I think the microfabric towels are decent, they arnt as sticky as the high end ones. They also had tons of turle waxes,spray detailers and other compounds from them.

Could you post a pic of the back of the TW car wash I would like to see what it says. Like if it is a wash and wax.

I went to two today and found some neat things, still no grit guard bucket though. I read an earlier post about them having Black Magic buckets with built-in grit guards. I picked up some MFs, TWPUG liquid and QD, Megs wheel face brush, and this little thing:
Seems like a cheap Mother's Powerball. It looks just like the one in the picture with the exception it only has the wool bonnet. Whatever, for $1.99 I'll use it on the bathroom if I don't like it. Either way, I've got a mini backing plate for my drill...
On a side note, the TWPUG may have just replaced Zaino on my car. Since durability isn't an issue, I can apply it twice a month and not worry, especially since it was only $2.99

FWIW, there are still some grit guard buckets to be found. I lucked into two of them at Big Lots in Hickory, NC this past weekend while traveling.

I got one of the Black Magic gritguard buckets about a year ago.
The first time I used it I cracked the gritguard in half because it kept floating up in the bucket when I went to dip my wash mitt.
I even tried epoxy to hold it down but that didn't hold up.
I still use the bucket, but without the gritguard now.

I would say about 3 months ago, I found them, and then went back later to get every one they had, I use them for glass, or single stage, or oxidized paint 2 bucks per pack. Now they are carrying the full line of megs brushes, needless to say I've pruchased a few.

I found the buckets by the hardware/tools section.
Didn't need it but for $3.99 couldn't pass it up.
