parents in some of my local fb parenting groups are frantically sharing locations of any stores in the city still selling fans. looks like most of the places you'd hit up (costco, target, bbb, hardware stores) are all sold out. so is prime now. walgreens may not have any fans even as a last resort - some of the locations seem to be sold out too. it's worth calling ahead and asking.

prime now wasn't sold out of things like ice cream though, and maybe they still have things like cooling towels in stock? i was swapping my cooling towel with my baby earlier today.




Any towel can be a "cooling towel". Evaporative cooling works without any special technology.

Cooling towels are great. My 10 yo stepdaughter had one for three days at Universal Orlando in August, 95 degrees, 90 percent humidity, and it saved the day(s).
