I bought a bag of them at BJ's for about $15 for 20. Dust, wash the floor.
About the only thing they aren't good at is picking up large amounts of
water. And I cut a few in half for the swiffer knockoff. Wash, use, wash
again. Oh and at least one in the hockey bag and car, for cleaning glasses.

Thanks, everyone. I'm on a mission, now, to find them. Gotta be
cheaper than buying the disposables. I'm anxious to see how it will
work with all the dog hair and grit we have here.

That's really sweet and means a lot. However, it's too late. I got on
my bike, pedaled over to the local hardware store and bought one. I
just finished three downstairs rooms. Lookin' good! When I get my
breath back, I'm going to go over the rooms with a swiffer to see what
it *really* did.

I'm impressed. Three rooms. Went over again with a swiffer. Little
new material caught up.
Sometimes the stuff we learn here just amazes me.
I cut mine in half, and I suppose I'll have to zigzag the raw edge so I
can wash it.
My biggest amazement was I could shake it outside, do the next room, and
it was still up to the job.
Now I need to get hubby to take the dogs to the park this week for two
hours so I can mop my floors. :~)
