Great bargins in the detailing world

So, what detailing products would you guys say are the greatest bargins out there? I'm not talking here about particularly vendors. What products (of any type), if sold at their standard retail price represent the best bargins.



For me, I'd pick #16, S100, and NXT Soap. Some of my other current favorite products (like UPP and AIO) are great, but too expensive to be considered bargins.

3 pack of tire swipes at Dollar Tree stores





These are a great bargain! The Dollar Store near me actually had the foam applicators (similar to the one's Meguiar's sells) in a two-pack for $1! I took the remaining three packs, then made the clerk wonder when I asked her when more were coming in.....
 
ntwrkguy1,



Is this the Dollar Store @ ParkPlace? I love Dollar Store.



I must say Sam's has spray bottles, microfibers, and even some chemicals. Not bad for local!
 
Costco APC, red denture brush at your local dollar store is the best interior brush that I have. I also think that any of the professional meguiars products that you use are a great deal when purchased by the gallon locally.

WOW, that sure is a great deal! I hope I'm lucky enough to find something like that.
 
Meguiars #16, any of Meguiars 80 series products by the gallon, Excel Detail's Propel pads and yelllow MFs, Vanilla Moose by the quart (I believe Specialty Motoring has it), Gold Class wash by the gallon, Natty's Paste and S100 Paste.



If I can think of more, I'll add them.



EDIT-thought of another. Long Haul's Truck Gloss, 28oz at Pep Boys for $5.

SilvaBimma,



It was actually the one near the intersection of 55 and 54. I've been back by twice since then, and they were sold out both times.

Megs Gold Class Car Wash $9.99 for a gallon at Target. Sometimes it's on sale for $7.99. I use this for wheel washing.

I actually surprised nobody mentioned the Costco MFs.



Are those the plush yellow MFs? I got some and I had a minor linting problem until they had been washed 2-3 times. Since then they work great. :)

those are quite good, although it's weird how only one set i bought stayed nice and plush, while the rest went kinda flat. and it's not like they were washed differently, all the same in the same load.
 
Eagle one 20/20, turtle wax platinum ultra gloss, collinite #845 (insulator wax), Propel pads and mothers sealer and glaze.
