I saw in Friday or Saturday Daily Sun, the hoarders have begun to go to work.
Guess I better go online and have Sam's deliver me some...

I use Scott 1000 single ply. It says on the package that 12 rolls will last 12 weeks for an average size household.

Hmm better take another look at our fig tree. We have a banana tree with huge leaves guess we can cut to a more useful size,

My grandparents only had outhouses on their farm well into the 1960's when they died at the rip age of 95+. Slop pots under beds for night use that had to be emptied into the outhouse each morning. Old Montgomery Ward catalogs pages was the toilet paper of choice. My dad was one of 10 kids and ran to the big city and law school as fast as he could. Real toilet paper and flush toilets were his most treasured items.

Scott we bought a few months ago says 1100 single ply.

My wife does not like it so we have his and her tp.

Don't need the electrical for warming option if you dont want the extra expense, the water from the holding tank is not really "cold", more room temp. All our neighbors looked for them last go around, they were already sold out.

Amazon has lots to choose from as well, but tushy is very uncomplicated and easy to install. And yes, the prices have risen dramatically from the $69 each we paid a little over 2 yrs ago. (got them just before the pandemic hit)

Get them while you can.....TUSHY Classic 3.0 | Bidet Attachment

Cool! Just ordered one. Thank you!! If we like it, we will order one for our other bathroom and my mom's two bathrooms. I have wanted one of these for a while now. Using coupon code NUMBERTWO2, received $19.80 discount and with the added tax and free shipping, paid $83.95. I'm good with that and it appears that installation is simple. My bum thanks you!

Procter & Gamble, the maker of Tide detergent and Charmin toilet paper, said this week that it would embark on another round of price increases after warning that supply chain costs would be higher than it previously anticipated. Andre Schulten, P&G’s chief financial officer, said it had announced price rises for nine of its 10 categories of products in the US, with mid single-digit increases across most of its portfolio.

Get your 12 month supply of Tide NOW!

I was shopping at BJ’s Clermont Tide was the most expensive from pods to liquid containers. Highest price of all the detergents that’s people were buying. Plenty of TP and paper towels. Guess people in Clermont aren’t as full of crap like The Villages

I was at Publix earlier today plenty of detergent , paper products and whatever I bought all pods for towels and sheets and woolite for my gym clothes I don’t know how much they cost and I don’t care everything else goes to cleaners including jeans , the more people cry scarcity of products the more runs on stuff will happen go Patriots
