    A lot of people outside America think taking a bath every day is a waste of water. Do you also agree with that?

    I never heard the term "hand towel" until I moved to Houston 20+ years ago and heard my wife use it. To answer your question: Yes, I change my wash rag each and every day because it gets more filthy than the towel.

    My wife converted me to switching daily and I couldn't go back to using a towel more than once. But I'll admit we have a ridiculous number of towels in our home. It's just me, my wife and teenage son in the house and we must have 40+ towels, not even including wash rags and medium-sized towels. It's like an obsession with her.

    Does anyone here not change your wash rag on a daily basis? If not, how many times do you use them? The thought of not switching these daily is revolting to me.

    Yes, this is the epitome of wasteful nature. Threads like these show me exactly why America is so alienated and hooked on prescription medication.

    Don't know if you realize that not everyone uses a wash towel/rag (and that it's not the same thing as a hand towel)

    I don't think a hand towel and a wash rag are the same thing. When I refer to a hand towel, I mean a small towel hanging in your bathroom that you use to dry your hands after washing them. A hand towel should not be getting dirty because you only use it on clean, wet hands. A wash rag is a small towel that you use to wipe things up, so those can get quite filthy.

    I think the one I'm using now is approaching month old.
