    Every once in a while I get a Uline catalog sent to me.I have looked at that same sort of industrial Jumbo roll. Very tempting.

        My old work ordered everything from uline, and I started bringing in my own TP specifically because of how awful it is to use that tissue paper.

        Legitimately feels like tissue paper that people stuff gift bags with.

        But at the same time, almost slippery.

        And you WILL know if you creased the paper the wrong way, because it WILL stab at you with the force of ten thousand teeny tiny needles.

        You just gotta keep using it until your anus naturally builds up callouses.

          If you don’t use a bidet, your butthole is already calloused. I learned this the first time I pooped in a normal toilet after getting my bidet.

            Yeah, the person has removed the public property from the ‘public’ and made it a private property.

            Public property means owned by the public, not “free item”. If you make it private it is stealing from the public.

    I was hella poor in college, and constantly using Taco Bell napkins and such for toilet paper. One day at school I found one of these rolls that was left on the counter in the bathroom. I immediately put that shit in my backpack and took it home. It felt like I had won the lottery! No need to worry about toilet paper for like 6 months!

        We Canadians are still mad at Sam’s club. I bought a yearly membership and a month later they shut down and refused to refund anyone. We’re also mad we lost the Disney store, that place was legit a great place to find deals and stuff for the kids easily.

          The Disney store is a grift IMO. Target also carries Disney crap, so if I really need it, there’s usually a sale or something that I can take advantage of at some point before a birthday or something.

            We don’t have target in Canada either. But I would always find crazy sales on clothes for the kids and even collectibles, like star wars stuff at the Disney store. They used to mark down stuff a lot cause they had to cycle in new products often. I heard they intended Canadians to just order stuff online, but the shipping costs are absurd.

        Your local janitorial supply is better than Amazon.

        Honestly every household should have an account at one, everything there is practical and works well unlike most modern consumer products. Dirt cheap too.

        Stuff like broom and dustpan, mop and bucket, spray bottles, squeegees, concentrated cleaning products, paper towel… Buy commercial grade, buy it for life.

            As a corollary, look for restaurant supply places to get utensils and whatnot, it’s usually cheaper and you’ll get more durable stuff. A lot of them don’t require memberships either.

            Business owners generally buy from business-supply places and not regular retail stores. So if a smaller business could conceivably want to buy something, there’s probably a business-supply place that sells it nearby. You may pay a bit more for durable things, but it’s often actually cheaper and they don’t cycle things out as quickly (businesses will inevitably need to buy more, and they want them to match).

        I just have a garbage disposal at the bottom of my toilet. I turn it on before flushing for the “bigger deposits” 🌀

    One of my neighbors owns a restaurant. When covid hit, they dropped boxes of gloves, hand sanitizer, and those rolls of TP off for everyone on the street. I still have one
