So toilet paper is sort of a main theme in my book ( I've been having a lot of issues with it lately; turns out all boy households tend to run out. Dru is not a happy girlfriend >.< ) and I really, really need to know what the largest size that Wal-Mart's tend to have is.

Or what sizes they're sold in, at all. I can't find anything online which is really frustrating, and I'm at work so I can't pop over to the shops and see what sizes they have.

Anyone know? It doesn't matter what brand, my MFC got really frustrated at 2am and drove to a Wal-Mart to buy the biggest package of tp she could find.

Cheers

Hm, I don't have one at the house but I am reasonably sure the biggest size at Target is a 24 roll pack. 2 high by 4 deep by 3 across, yep, that's 24 I think. At least that's the biggest one I've ever gotten. There could be larger.

Just make up a ridiculous number and keep going. Accuracy is for December!

Best advice ever.

I reached out to Twitter and found out there's at least a 36 pack out there.

And you also have "single" rolls and "double" rolls. the latter supposedly is 2x the former.

Maybe you could make up a "quadruple" if you're doing a comedy. Something like that might push absurdity if you have a 36 pack of quadruple roll ;)

See you at the finish line

You are possibly the most helpful person I've ever met! Thank you so much for the prices. She's totally hugging Angel Soft; Skye's a cheap little cow

So glad your issue with tissue is all wrapped up. :)

Hope your nano tale is not dragging on like a stray bit of tissue stuck to your shoe as you leave the public restroom after your third walk around in a write in at the Tom Thumb grocery store.

I stayed at our Weird Wednesday write in at Tom Thumb coffee shop until 12:30 last night.
My tale trails on.

Tonight I may be writing at Saxbys in McKinney again as I am right now.
ciao for now,
Laurie in McKinney

My job allows me to run inside wolly world when ever needed.

It actually made my day that I was able to help a fellow nano out. :)

This thread just made my day. I'm stuck grading English papers instead of NaNo-ing. I needed a good chuckle.
