Wet Wipes

[Relisys]

Why are there 64 Wet Wipes in a pack?

[bednobs]

why not?

[Mosaic]

I expect it's related to how the machinery divides up specified lengths of textile, folds and stacks them.
A big piece of paper folded repeatedly would theoretically yield 64 sections

[Canary42]

Because it's a nice round number (in binary notation, namely 1000000)

Saves you having to buy 2 boxes if there were only 32 in each.

[gingejbee]

Perhaps there were 65, and you used one?

[boxtops]

what would you like there to be? Must say I never count them as they come out....

[Trishy]

For the same reason as packets which used to contain 500g now contain 450g!

[Jomlett]

Snot normal to count ,em!

[Mamyalynne]

It is a strange number for the main manufacturers to have settled on (number is printed on pack) a quick email would likely elicit a response.

A lad I dated told his Mum that Swan Vesta was offering a prize for anyone finding exactly 46 matches in a box......she bought and counted endless boxes before the light dawned....☺☺
