Need white t-shirts & shorts for tie-die party

[jdramirez]

Seemingly we are scaling back the amount of cash we threw at my daughter's last party. So I guess that is the good news. I figure there is someplace online to find nice enough all cotton or at least a decent blend 50/50.

The girls are 6 or 7 years old, and I presume buying direct from China would be cheaper than buying from a retailer like Michaels or AC Moore.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

OuUr dollar store usually has white t-shirts. They may not be the sizes you would prefer, but I threw a tie-die party for my friends kid and the larger shirts got used as pajamas. They love them anyway.

Either that or walmart?

That might work. I'm sure that is a YMMV situation, but I will start looking for them there.

yah, i have to second that all the DOLLAR TREES in my area have the white shirts- However, maybe it would be cheaper to buy a pack of little boys undershirts from walmart since they come in packages ya know?

i just looked up the price on walmart though and they are over 1.00 a piece for a 10 pack, but if your $ store does not have them, this could be an option

online places are around 1.62 but that of course is before shipping

I buy boys' Hanes in the multipacks for tie dyeing -- they are thinner than the beefy tees, but cost about $1 a shirt. If you're using fiber reactive dyes, try to use 100% cotton, or else the shirts won't hold the dye.

Someone gave a tip to my wife that she needs to use "good" dyes so the colors are vibrant. So, we will have to see how much the good dyes cose.

Buying from China is very easy,you just need to send an Email to the sales man from Here (www.dealperfect.com),tell him what you want ,and he will give you some link for you to choose and tell you the price,and you can pay for the items via paypal,then he will ship the items to your paypal address.Many Holland buyer order Chinese gadget for a cheapest price from him.
