I like to go to sleep wearing a clean white t shirt. The thing is the ones i have are pretty worn and really bad looking. I had bought many of these shirts back from hanes and fruit of the loom but the thing is these shirts are just really long. I know its not big deal b/c you are at home but the white shirts that i always liked are those banana republic v neck and crew neck t shirts. The thing with these are these shirts are more for when you go outside and these shirts cost quite a bit more than regular t shirts.  
Anyone know where i can get shirts like banana republic the white t shirt type thats v neck or crewneck that doesn’t cost 18+ dollars each? Again i will be wearing it for sleeping and inside the house and seems like fruit of the loom and hanes… the ones i bought in 3 packs etc there are always so long.

[6dollarshirts.com](http://6dollarshirts.com/) They really are only 6 bucks. I’ve bought a ton of shirts there. They sell [blank t-shirts](http://6dollarshirts.com/t-shirts/Blank-Tees-orderby0-p-1-c-276.html) for just $3 a piece. I’ve found them to be decent quality shirts.

I use Costco for this. I like mine thick because I sweat a lot.

Try a Marshall’s, TJMaxx, or Ross. They usually have a slection of 3-pack white t’s of various brands other than your standard FTL or Hanes. They’ve got stuff like Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfigger, Lucky Brand, Nautica, Jockey, etc. etc.

Try Goodwill, Salvation Army, St. Vincent de Paul, etc. They sell t-shirts for only $1-2 and you can make sure they fit perfectly before you leave!

I like the Tall T-shirts made by Gildan. I buy them from wholesalers on eBay. For soft, though, you can’t beat the ones made by NextLevel or American Apparel.

Since the OP is looking for advice, let’s move this to IMHO.

Second TJ Maxx. My husband got a 3-pack of Calvin Klein v-neck white tshirts there for cheap. Love 'em.
