Either the Kirkland or the Cottonelle one are quite decent. And they are on sale quite often for both. (I think 15-20 for the box is my usual price)

Usually a single sheet is enough. Sometimes I might use the toilet paper to make my butt dry, but it's way better than like 3-5times with dry papers.

The Charmin stuff is really dusty so my wife won't use it so I have to go to Superstore for Cottonnelle which we both like.

With paper towels I can't use anything but Bounty, that shit is the best. I would use it to dry myself after a shower if I couldn't find a towel. I have no idea how much it costs as I just grab a pack whenever I need it and I know I won't shop around with it.

Wait, are you just walking into the kitchen ass naked wiping your hairy ass down with bounty paper towels?

Second this... tried many other PT when they go on sale, but always gone back to Bounty. It's so good that whenever we go back to Asia, my F&F would ask me to fill any luggage allowance/space that we still have with nothing but Bounty. (Asia's PT is horrible... thin, absorb little to nothing and breaks easily. More like a large piece of cheap toilet paper more than PT)

Ha, let your imagination take you wherever it pleases.

True story: I was at a party in Chicago once where some guy confessed to showering with dish detergent when his wife was out of town. I can't recall how it got volunteered but this grown ass man (in his 40s) just brought it up out of the blue.

CivicBlues 08-15-2024 04:17 PM

^who hasn't checked into a shitty airbnb and found the only supplied cleaning soap being dishwasher detergent?

PeanutButter 08-15-2024 05:59 PM

I like how he only does it when his wife is out of town... That's some weird shit.

Dish soap feels gross on the skin too. It's super slimey.

Hondaracer 08-15-2024 07:16 PM

If that’s the worse he does you guys must be pretty hoitey toitey to laugh lol

if that's the case, then isn't it a matter of like any other food if it's fresh and hasn't gone bad yet or not?

Knowing Costco they're pretty stringent about their food safety so they're definitely better than Samurai... lol

hud 91gt 08-15-2024 08:00 PM

Who hasn’t used dish soap? Lol. Saying that, dish washer detergent is some pretty harsh shit. Haven’t used that. lol.

It's impossible to be Team Kleenex right now unless you're smuggling that shit in from the states.

Kleenex doesn't sell in Canada anymore. That brand is dead!

I load up once every couple months with 18 boxes and ship it to point roberts and I just go pick it up at night. Sounds crazy just for Kleenex I know but the drive is quick with no wait when I'm going at midnight and bonus I get a tank of gas while I'm at it.

PeanutButter 08-16-2024 09:27 AM

hahaha, I can just imagine the CBSA. It's the Kleenex guy again...

Lol not yet, I loaded up like crazy before they left Canada so I've only made the US run for Kleenex 2 times so far. But prior to that I had been going down for years and always bringing weird ass shit back when they ask what I got random kids stuff usually.

Yo, WTF? Are you a serial killer? So many questions here.

Why are paper towels in your bathroom? What kinda shits are you taking in there?

How could you not find a towel, do you only own 1?

Sending screenshot to Porsche Cars Canada.

"Dear Porsche Canada,

For your consideration and action, please find attached screenshot. Please do not sell a Porsche to supafamous. This could cause irreparable damage to your brand.

Sincerely,

Wait what? It's not a thing to keep a roll of PT in bathroom? We use it to clean up the counter, in case of water spill or the drain for hairs and whatever nasty in there.

Well, it did say "flushable", so if it did clog, I think they can expect a letter from my lawyer. :fuckthatshit:

So far so good though. Finger crossed but I've used it from time to time to wipe stuff off in bathroom and they did kinda break apart if submerged into water. 4yrs so far, and 0 problem with my toilets. I do follow the "one wipe per flush" to the letter. So, maybe that helped?

Badhobz 08-16-2024 12:47 PM

At least on the Kirkland and Huggies wipes it says specifically not to throw in the toilet.
Maybe you’re using those special wet wipes

Not baby wipes... "flushable" wipes

LOL. It's just a theoretical thing - I'm just saying Bounty paper towels are so good I'd use them to dry myself if I had to.

My shits can be pretty epic though. My body has adjusted to WFH and Monday morning are really something now.

It's important you made that clarification

unit 08-16-2024 02:33 PM

any plumber will tell you never to flush those wipes.

"Baby wipes, disinfecting wipes and other similar products are often marketed as “flushable.” They get past the toilet, but unfortunately, they don’t get very far. Unlike toilet paper, which has been designed to break down quickly once wet, wipes have been designed to stay together when wet. These “flushable” wipes accumulate in your household sewer pipes and form blockages, which cause sewer backups. There are currently no regulations to specify which products can be labelled as “flushable,” so to be safe, dispose of wipes in the garbage and remember the flushable Three Ps: Pee, Poo and toilet Paper.

Yo man, don't be ashamed. If you like drying off with bounty paper towels, f*ck it dude. Just do your thing.

I like to eat chicken feet, we all have our things.
