How many people commented, "On the whole, it's rather good."?

I feel like we should be told.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I was going to ask why it's 89 dollars but it's 2025... Might be discounted for all I know.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

There is no dollar sign. It's likely in whatever the local currency is. My guess is it's in Mexico. 90 pesos is roughlt $4.70 USD

I recently met a guy that is the lead for the sample department at Costco. I should send this to him and be like "what were you thinking?"

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 days ago (4 children)

TBH I would welcome the opportunity to touch toilet paper before buying. It can be hard to figure out how soft or rough it is just by sight and what's written on the package.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

That's why all the packages always have holes someone punched through to feel the toilet paper

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What if it's a sensual taste testing sample

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago
[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

What! You dont like sanding your asshole with 40grit sandpaper?

Honestly i agree its kinda smort

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I'm a connoisseur myself and travel with my own stash. The stuff they have in most public restrooms is so cheap it's like wiping your ass with a CVS receipt.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 days ago

The answer is in the question. Pants down, bend over.

Having had the “benefit” of decades of experience in the retail industry, I assure anyone reading who hasn’t, that most of us would be very happy to wear gloves all of the time, regardless of any given reason. People are fucking gross. And we don’t have health insurance. So, no thank you for your conjunctivitis and Covid, but I’d really rather not. Thanks for shopping at [Retail Outlet]! Please, come back and be rude to us again!

[–] [email protected] -3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Gloves or not, you still can’t touch yourself, it only saves washing your hands if you can’t. If you are near a sink, wearing gloves is just weird or for the theatre of people who think it makes a difference.

Not many diseases are spread by actual skin contact, still need to pick your nose and a glove doesn’t change anything.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago

And a hairnet?!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Forget the gloves, when did toilet paper get to 90 bucks!?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Looks like Costco to me. It's probably a pack of a few billion rolls.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That is definitely not Costco

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, I might definitely be wrong. But still looks like some Costco-like store. Maybe Sam's Club?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

This isn't in the US, looks like somewhere in the Caribbean based on the brands. Definitely not US dollars

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It looks like the package on the table has at least 40 rolls.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

2,25 per roll. For the price of 8 rolls you can buy a bidet.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago

$18 for a bidet? That can't be more than a hose to spray your butt with. And then you'll still need something to dry it off...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don't think Costco ever jacked up the prices like that, it was just unavailable for a long time.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It isn't that the prices are jacked up, it's that it's enough toilet paper to last until toilet paper goes out of style.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

As a regular Costco shopper, no a pack like that wouldn't be anywhere near that much, and no that many won't last nearly as long as you think. Perhaps this isn't USD though.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

~~Barbados dollars~~ Trinidad and Tobago Dollar

And for the worst brand too 🤣

And why does she look so unhappy about it?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

Because some asshole is standing 3 feet away from her, photographing her.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's to wipe your mouth. There must be lemonade and fudge samples just out of frame.

[–] ininewcrow 6 points 2 days ago

???? ... that wasn't chocolate fudge :(
