Where do you buy your favorite, non-see-through, cotton (or cotton blend) t-shirt?
I'm tired of buying the cheap, thin t-shirts you normally find at discount stores; and I'm willing to invest in shirts that will not shrink in funny directions.
Any ideas? What's your staple shirt for the warm months?

Have you considered looking at local wholesale places? I get great quality t's for under $3, sometimes there's a sale so even better. I did have to create a business, and I do some craft sales with t'shirts so it works.
I also watch for sales.

I have to admit they're not a bargain, but my favorite white tee so far is from REI. They are soft, comfortable and great for the summer (even has some UPF proctection).

I like the brand Apt9 from Kohls. They hold their shape really well. They have some stretch to them but they don't stretch out. In fact I purchased 4 long sleeved tees this past winter and those were my only shirts for the season and they held up GREAT! I should have shopped for short sleeved tees earlier this year because the only colors I found recently at my store were all in the purple/plum family, but I went ahead and bought them.

Lands End has nice tees. Just don't get the ones that are for layering,because they are thin.

I agree. If you sign up for Lands End e-mails, you will get all kinds of good deals on shipping and discounts. If you shop the Overstocks, you can get great deals on t-shirts. Sometimes they have deals like 30% off everything and free shipping. And returns are free at your local Sears.
I just don't see how you can beat that!

Late chiming in, but check Coldwater Creek's website. They have good sales on their outlet items, and when you use an additional coupon code and get free shipping, you can get some great prices on nice quality things. I have been happy with their t-shirts, and their crops & capri pants.
