    How many people commented, “On the whole, it’s rather good.”?

    I feel like we should be told.

    TBH I would welcome the opportunity to touch toilet paper before buying. It can be hard to figure out how soft or rough it is just by sight and what’s written on the package.

      That’s why all the packages always have holes someone punched through to feel the toilet paper

      I’m a connoisseur myself and travel with my own stash. The stuff they have in most public restrooms is so cheap it’s like wiping your ass with a CVS receipt.

    I was going to ask why it’s 89 dollars but it’s 2025… Might be discounted for all I know.

      There is no dollar sign. It’s likely in whatever the local currency is. My guess is it’s in Mexico. 90 pesos is roughlt $4.70 USD

    Having had the “benefit” of decades of experience in the retail industry, I assure anyone reading who hasn’t, that most of us would be very happy to wear gloves all of the time, regardless of any given reason. People are fucking gross. And we don’t have health insurance. So, no thank you for your conjunctivitis and Covid, but I’d really rather not. Thanks for shopping at [Retail Outlet]! Please, come back and be rude to us again!

      Gloves or not, you still can’t touch yourself, it only saves washing your hands if you can’t. If you are near a sink, wearing gloves is just weird or for the theatre of people who think it makes a difference.

      Not many diseases are spread by actual skin contact, still need to pick your nose and a glove doesn’t change anything.

          You should be washing your hands MUCH more frequently than “every couple” hours, that’s disgusting.

          You’re the dirty one that people should be avoiding. Bet you don’t wash after your smoke break do you?

      Looks like Costco to me. It’s probably a pack of a few billion rolls.

          Yeah, I might definitely be wrong. But still looks like some Costco-like store. Maybe Sam’s Club?

            This isn’t in the US, looks like somewhere in the Caribbean based on the brands. Definitely not US dollars

        It looks like the package on the table has at least 40 rolls.

          2,25 per roll. For the price of 8 rolls you can buy a bidet.

            $18 for a bidet? That can’t be more than a hose to spray your butt with. And then you’ll still need something to dry it off…

        I don’t think Costco ever jacked up the prices like that, it was just unavailable for a long time.

          It isn’t that the prices are jacked up, it’s that it’s enough toilet paper to last until toilet paper goes out of style.

            As a regular Costco shopper, no a pack like that wouldn’t be anywhere near that much, and no that many won’t last nearly as long as you think. Perhaps this isn’t USD though.
