AGREE!!, My son is coming to visit this weekend, I will be sending all Scott's Toilet Paper purchased at Sam's, home with him. That is the brand they use. Minus the two rolls we tried in our bathroom. We were desperate!!!

A bit over-reaction , there are signs on the tissues stating 2 per customer, I did as you the cashier noted only two , not quite worth commenting on in this forum.

I got frustrated with never being able to find Clean Shower so I researched how to make it and it works better than the real thing . 1/2 cup rubbing alcohol, 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide , 1 tablespoon Jet dry dishwasher additive , 1 teaspoon dish soap such as Dawn. Add all to a 32 ounce spray bottle and fill the rest with water and shake it up. It is an after shower spray it and leave it deal. It basically dries the water in the shower. Doesn’t hurt to have the bath fan on to help with evaporation especially if the a/c is not running

You can make your own Clean Shower by mixing rubbing alcohol and water.

Fill a large stewing pot with water and put in 6 large lava stones. Prepare a kauai chicken for cooking and throw him in the pot.

Boil for three hours.

Take the chicken out of the pot and toss him and eat the lava stones.

The stones will be slightly more tender than the chicken.
Totally off OP topic, but I experienced those wild chickens in Kauai and the worst of it was the roosters crowing all day long. Made me want to boil some.

It seems that I am only allowed to purchase one box of Puffs Plus Lotion at a time. I had three individual boxes in my cart. I will never forget to place only one in the next time I shop there. My wife later told me that I should have purchased the three pack.

Can anyone alert others and me to additional things that still haven’t returned to normal that might trip us up the next time we shop?
Most items like this are clearly marked “Limit one per customer”. Maybe the sign fell off or someone removed it.

Me too, and I'll trade some of that too-thick quilted stuff that needs a new roll every second day!

I have a recollection, which Google could not confirm, that Scotts ran a TV ad perhaps in the 60s or 70s where a woman with a slight accent said

1000 sheets, that's a lotta sheets

I couldn't believe they got away with that back then. The purpose of advertising is to make you remember the product, so it worked

Default Got Hit This Morning

I thought there was a problem when I got hit by a piece of sky this morning. Just a glancing blow though.
