Join Date: Oct 2001 Location: Arlington, TX Posts: 25,159 | Big Lots has some nice deals! Detailer's Choice microfiber covered foam wash pads for $2. Picked up a couple, used one on several cars now and it is holding up well. Seems to clean better then chenille. Probably going to go back and buy several.
Nascar Tire Shine, 23 oz bottles for $3 6 bottles would equal 138 oz, so a little more than a gallon of tire dressing for $18. A little more gloss than Armor All, decent durability.
Karcher 1500 psi power washer for $80.

Great deal Scott, i just stop by advanced auto and found at the discount table 6 MF's and 3 double MF pads for 95% off,  my total was a total of 2.25 ! i was a happy camper today, and the deal you got was awesome! The Karcher is the same one i have and it was 90.00 dollars about 2 or 3 years ago and it does wonders for me and at 80.00 bucks it's a great deal!

I'll have to try the microfiber ones. At least I won't have the fuzz problem at first like with the chenille. Thanks for the tip.
