I have a friend who is going to have surgury next week. Her head will more than likely be shaved. I was thinking of getting her a buff. Just wondering if anyone has one and what can be done with them.

Sherbabe,
They have them for sale on the CBS website. I haven't looked at them there so don't know the price.

My daughter wants one for Christmas and I checked out the CBS site. Price is $20, plus I'm sure there's a shipping charge. I decided my 11 year old could do without a $20 Survivor buff.

They seem pretty versatile so your friend might get some use ut of it.

my daughter just got her new black Survivor:Pearl Islands buff in the mail yesterday. she also has an orange Australian one. She wore it over her t-shirt to a party last night. on the packaging, they show you how to make it into different wearable articles. they come within a week of ordering. as for ebay, i don't know any survivor fan who would want to part with one! i know holly wouldn't share hers EVER!

I got a Marquesas buff for a mother's day present along with a Survivor baseball hat! I love the buff when I camp with my Girl Scouts.... it serves as bandana or is wonderfully cooling when wet around the neck. I dare say it's kept me from overheating many times. DD steals it all the time when we are camping. It is very versatile as a head covering and as Landi said, it comes with directions on lots of ways to wear it.

If your friend is a Survivor fan, I'm sure it will go over really well.

Wow. Thanks for answering my question! I was wondering if anyone actually bought these things. I usually laugh at the commercials.

What do you use them for?? I don't get it. Are you showing you are a 'fan' of a specific tribe?? In all the years of survivor...I have NEVER seen one in real-life. Hmmmm...

Curious...not trying to pick on anyone...just being honest.

My son wanted one, so got it for him one year. We were actually disappointed. for one thing they sent us the "halter top" which I did not order and they charged $5 extra for. apparently what made it a "halter top" was a coordinating strip of cloth that could be used to loop around the front and over the neck. it was hokey. Plus, the buff itself is maybe 6 inches wide and the material is not very stretchy so I guess it's supposed to be a halter top of 20 something size ones like the girls from last season and not 40 year old mom's of 14 year old boys who have no interest in wearing a buff as a halter top. (not that it would fit him either!) My son will put it on his head and wear it like that but it ends up looking like a really bad "do rag" it's too long to be a "bandana" or maybe we just don't know how to put it on. Anyway, we were disappointed and let CBS know <G> Maybe if I had ordered correctly in the first place we would have been happier <G>
