Must invest in a good stockpot! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/used-prefolds#post-1120457 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 22:35:52 +0000 runsyellowlites 1120457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't bought used prefolds, but have gotten other used dipes. FWIW you can boil new prefolds to get all the oils off so you don't have to wash them a ton of times. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/used-prefolds#post-1120455 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 22:32:27 +0000 immabeetoo 1120455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: yep, I bought them used because they're cotton and I could boil all the potential ickies away (unlike stuff with snaps/PUL/elastic). I didn't end up loving prefolds in general though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/used-prefolds#post-1120453 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 22:30:57 +0000 autumnlove 1120453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm kinda interested in doing this because I don't want to waste water to wash new prefolds 6+ times!</p> <p>Have you ever purchased used prefolds? </p>
