I'm down to my last nine roll pack of loo roll. I don't know why, but more than anything toilet paper is the most comforting thing for me to stock pile. I feel an immense sense of well being when I trip over an over-enthusiastically stocked pile of rolls. Now I am feeling edgy.
On the other hand, I don't have the room or money to build a pointless stockpile.
It would make sense for me to get it with the groceries. The delivery charge would be there anyway, and Tesco do basic toilet roll at £1 for 4 rolls. Their eighteen roll pack of posh stuff is £6.50, or just over 36p per roll. I already pay for the Tesco delivery saver, so if I stick to my aim of only getting the absolute minimum I am sure that I will need a bit of help getting the total up to the £25 before the delivery saver kicks in.
If I look at ebay or Amazon there is still the humungous delivery charge to be added, no matter how inexpensive the loo roll is, because it isn't cheap to send dozens of rolls through the post. I mean, if I am desperate, I can always go to the local shop, they are not that expensive!
However that means I will have no toilet paper stockpile. I shall feel the fear and do it anyway. It may sound very trivial, but it is a really big step for me towards getting a streamlined, clutter free house. It is just a very strange thing that these steps turn on.
Just a thought - what about when Makro does their BOGOF on toilet paper?
ReplyDeleteI have been buying Nicky four roll packs in our local Tesco for 90p a pack. Much nicer than their value range and a bit cheaper too. I have a huge stockpile of Nouvelle on top of a cupboard in the garage too - I won't dare to tell you how many there are out there - but we won't be needing any more this year, that's for sure!
