This is part of the 1kg bag of microfibre towels I got .
The white with green stripe, ALSCO branded ones are a small teatowel size.  And dry really well
Several 'pretty' ones are in the wash.  I have been using them in the bathroom.
The dark pink one is quite large and will be used in the car.
 50c each was the best price I have seen, even from the cheap stores

This lot was from Bunnings, but I have seen them in Big W as well.  Just a big bag of microfibre cloths. 
I chose these as I could see the ALSCO label and figured if they can cope with the treatment ALSCO give their rental stuff they would do me.  It was almost all tea towels in this bag.
Some bags have a lot more variation.  I have a couple from a prev lot the size of bath towels.  With tiny tiny flaws like a pulled thread or a blotch of colour where it shouldn't be.

Yes Kimmy it is the chip maker. The chips are lovely. Quite healthy really as it is only potato and a tiny bit of salt.

Rosie my DH came home with 25 microfibre cloths from Bunnings.
