I'm a guy who prides himself on buying quality products at the best price per unit... Stop chuckling! You know what I mean... If 20 ounces of "PLUP" is 8.9 cents per ounce but I can get 32 ounces of "PLUP plus conditioner" for 8.2 cents an ounce... I'm taking the bargain!
But toilet paper gets me every time. I can't stand toilet paper math! Have you seen the equations on the outside of the package? Six double rolls = 12 rolls! Seriously? I don't care how much you stuff the tube, it's still one tube... When my hand is rolling layers, it's not factoring in the thickness... a roll is a roll is a roll.
Oh, and watch out for the sheet rule. Today I was almost gypped on my sheets... I could have bought the same quantity of rolls but ended up with 200 sheets to the wind compared to the other brand. Whew!
** This post is stressing me out... I'm shivering from the cool air in here, yet my forehead is perspiring from toilet paper math!!
Do you still have toilet paper on your office ceiling?

This made me laugh hard - because I always feel like the toilet paper aisle challenges every shred of education I ever pursued.
Perhaps a class action suit is in order.

Texture is highly important in a toilet paper purchase.
