I saw in Friday or Saturday Daily Sun, the hoarders have begun to go to work.

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

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.

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!

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
