Re: HELP NEED AN ANSWER ASAP

@NightOwl1 ... Not only have we been going to stores everyday, I am calling and checking on line with every single store I know sells paper products including Office Depot. The answer to phone calls is always the same, not in stock. We go inside of stores and what do we see on the shelves? NADA, NOTHING. Some people who have responded and are able to get what they need are lucky, we don't live in the same state or in the same areas in the same state. I appreciate replies but I wish people would think before they speak. Thank you for a lovely response.

I found a company on line that can ship my favorite Charmin Ultra Strong TP and my question is; would you pay $35.99 + 6.99 s/h (42.98) for 9 mega rolls per sheet?

Shipping could take 3 to 4 weeks, however, if faster shipping is wanted it will cost $16.99. I will run out long before 3 to 4 weeks but $52.98 for TP??? I need to make a decision asap before they run out, what would you do?

No. I wouldn't pay $42.98 for 9 rolls of toilet paper that wouldn't even be delivered for 3 or 4 weeks. I havn't been out to shop for the last two weeks. Fortunately, I still have enough toilet paper, paper towels, etc. for a while. For some unknown reason I've had a thing for a long time about running out of tp. Maybe from college or something. Anyway, I went to Walmart yesterday about 2 o'clock. It was probably the best experience I've ever had in any Walmart.

I was in there to get frozen foods, fresh fruit, coke zero, salsa and tortilla chips but noticed how well stocked it was. Full shelves of paper towels, tp, etc. Another thing, something I have never seen in any Walmart, ever. There were about five checkout lanes open with cashiers, lol, and the self checkout area was not crazy. Anyway, I think things are steadily improving, production meeting needs, etc. If I were you, I'd keep calling/looking at your local stores of all kinds. Hold out as long as you can. BTW, I have one package of Charmin I'd be happy to give you but an address would be necessary so can't do it.

@Silver Lining . Thank you for your lovely response. I don't know where you live but things here in AZ are still pretty hectic. No matter when we go or where we go it's always the same, empty shelves. How sweet of you to offer your roll of Charmin to me. I prefer that brand because it doesn't shred, you don't have to use much and it lasts a long time. Stay safe, stay healthy.

About two months ago, before the pandemic, I saw a Quilted Northern ad on FB, with a discount and free shipping, so I ordered two cases. Who knew that I would be ahead of the curve. I only ordered to save myself time and not having to lug it all home. They shipped very fast and it was a decent price.

The next time that I hear salt and ice together, it better be in a margarita!
