Looks like a half roll of Scotties sand paper toilet tissue.

But price goes way down to as low as $0.86 if you buy 6 or more!

No free ship on qty discounts, though. And shipping on 6 is $22.24 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You're better off just buying 5 at a time. Comes to $3.39 each.

buy 6 and total price each would be $4.58 each !!!

I like the product description;

”Will you buy this Toilet Paper Tissue from oversea? Maybe your a** has already get clean when you receive the paper.
Maybe you will need it from China if it is stockout in the local supermarket. It will be a good choice to get it from oversea in some case.”

Well...first possible Supply Chain issue.
Ordered some Juice and the Company Emailed and said that their Supplier is out of Ingredients that they get from Overseas, so they are having to close their Store temporarily while they await a Shipment and that they will Work through the Weekend to fulfill Orders.
I'm glad I ordered extra.
This is gonna get interesting.
And this is only the beginning.....

    Well it seems that WV has finally joined the CV club.
    It IS a hell of a lot of fun.

    When Black Friday comes
    I'll stand down by the door
    And catch the grey men when they dive from the fourteenth floor

    When Black Friday comes
    I'll collect everything I'm owed
    And before my friends find out I'll be on the road

    When Black Friday falls you know it's got to be...
    Don't Let it Fall On Me


    LOL

    At some point, powers that be are going to have to weigh what it's worth to prevent the spread of this virus. We're stunting the spread, but could add millions more jobless & homeless people.

    My business basically stopped Friday. No revenue for the foreseeable future. 26 contract employees that won't get paid. My business deals with schools and daycares, and they're all closed. People are expecting refunds for services interrupted in March, and won't be paying us for April on, since we can't work. Worse than that, April and May is when the contract employees have to save up- because summer revenue is less than 15 percent of Aug-May revenue at best, when everything is open. I'm taking a huge hit, but I'll be okay. I'm really worrying about all the hand-to-mouth hourly people across the country, even if they get a $1K check from the government. A lot of the small businesses they work for won't even be in business when this is over.

    But I do have a related question:

    edit: And sorry for the rerun- things have been crazy since Thursday, and I'm kinda out of my head. After posting, got an agree notification and realized I posted a lot of this on Saturday...totally forgot.:?:

    They won't be buying TP because not only do they have it, but they will be stocking up on food instead.

    Last week, all food was easy to find.

    Today, went to 4 grocery stores and 1 walmart.

    Bought $525 worth of food, going back out tomorrow to buy at least as much more.

    Food that I noticed that was 90-100% out of stock at all stores...

    Canned soup & broth
    Peanut Butter
    Apple Juice
    Gatorade
    Rice
    Tuna
    Bread under $4/pack
    Saltine and Ritz type of crackers
    Milk
    Eggs
    Water
    Canned veggies & fruit
    Canned tomato products
    Frozen veggies (not including steamer bags)
    Pasta
    Chicken

    Dry cereal was about 50% OOS.

    And this is only what I happened to see/looking to buy.

    Food = the next shortage. Forget TP, get food. Then get you TP in 2 weeks when there is more available. Get your food now.

    News telling us to only store 1 week's worth.

    :lol::lol::lol: bull:censored: :lol::lol::lol:

    They know food stores are lower than normal.

    Last year was bad for food growers. This year not expected to be any better.

    I give it another week (2 at the most) - you will go grocery shopping and only come back with half of your list if you're lucky.

    I hope I'm wrong.

    They talk a lot, but they tell us nothing. But they can only play that game for so long.

    :2c:
