Post Where can we get s mask?

Does anyone know where my husband & I can get free or low-cost masks to wear in public? Both of us have been "yelled at" for not having one. We do not have a sewing machine & we are not anyone special (like health-care workers or first responders).
Thanks.

10 for $15, free shipping, no tax, ship rightaway from Oklahoma. You can buy 10, 20, 50 or 100. The seller has feedback of 4400 and as far as the masks, all the feedback is very good, and they've already had 454 masks sales.

Try a bandana, or look online. End of April seems kind of late to be asking.

Here's a link... Nextdoor - local cotton mask made by Villagers

Check the Classifieds section here too, there are a few sellers making mask there also.

Best

A pair a tightey whitey jockey shorts will work. If you really want to keep people away, add skid marks.

Search the classified portion of this site, there is a woman selling very nice masks for $3 each we have purchased 8 for our use, very satisfied. There are a few ads, hers is the only one for this price, she has ordering info in the ad.

It's obvious that up until now you haven't felt a need to wear a mask. I would not let others "yelling" at you intimidate your decision. I do not own a mask nor plan on owning one. What I have observed on many others are more of a fashion statement than a medical device. Anyone who feels comfort in wearing a mask of any type should continue to do so; regardless their effectiveness'. I will continue in my beliefs and take the same precaution that I take during any flu season and a mask and stay at home imprisonment are not included.

You can easily make one out of an old tee shirt or even a man's sock. Even a banana or a scarf will work.

I hope you are in a minority of one. It is attitudes like yours that has led to over 1 million cases in the US.
