DD1: Hey Mama,
Me: Hey, baby.
DD1: I need to ask ya a favor.
Me: Ok, baby, anything. Thinks should qualify that before she asks to co-sign a mortgage or something…
DD1: I need you to start saving tp rolls for me.
Me: Imagines all sorts of cute crafts she and PP will make….
Me: Comes back to earth from the craft daydream. Oh? Whatcha making?
DD!: Nothin
Me: Huh?? What would you need with tp rolls, if ya ain’t gonna make crafts??
DD1: I’m gonna sell them on e-bay.
Me: Stunned, unbelieving silence

DD1: Yup! A 40 pc lot of tp rolls sells for about $10.

I thought you were kidding – looked it up – yep, they sell it. Crazy!!
Wouldn’t keeping these until you have enough add to the clutter?? Our house only uses at most one roll a week. I would need to save them for the rest of the year, move the box from room to room to make $10.

Would I kid about toilet paper????
Umm, yes, it does. That’s why we’re gonna have to have a talk, DD1 and I.
LOL!! I use a roll every 2 days! Of course, I have a little part time helper!

LOL I remember those helpers! I also buy the mega-rolls because I got tired of being the one to sit when it was empty.

Lol!! Go look on e-bay. Oh wait, that says free for the customer.
Collect a box of 50, then weigh at the PO?? Weigh 1, multiply by 50, and then call the PO??
I know! Google it! Google knows everything!!
