I bet you can send them out to be laundered with extra starch way cheaper than that, even if you include the depreciation on the washer and dryer for that load.

I kinda felt sorry for the woman that washes our cloths (by hand) even though I had washed them off last night, and no more... noticeable stuffs..

So this morning while the sun was barely coming up, I put them back on and went swimming in the sea...

Good as new..

Good point.

However...
If the undies were manufactured as throwaways, and the demand was there...

We probably could get the cost down to 25 cents a pair. Or less.

Plus, if they could be made flushable, you could use them to wipe. And save on toilet paper. So there's that.
