A Tale (trail?) of Toilet Paper

The bad news first:  I had placed a special order for 8 cases of Angel Soft toilet paper – which came in – to go with my HC 10 case order – which didn’t.  So here’s my dilemma:  do I get sucked down the overpayment drain or walk out on my special order and make the store eat it.  You have to understand that my Jewel has a ridiculously small back room with no storage.  Nowhere near enough to keep an extra 8 to 10 cases of toilet paper.

Obviously I bought the damned toilet paper.  Once you go back on a special order, you can pretty much kiss any future deals bye bye.  Why would they take a chance on you again?

Sooooooo, in total,  OOP is $82.85.  Picked up 39 Angel Soft ($120.51), 6 cans of Folgers (22.68) and 13 snack cups (the only thing that was cheap: $1.64).  I used up a bunch of the Ultra Aquapod cats and some RRs.  Ended up with 3 $10 Con Agra cats; only rolling the Con Agra cats would have been $144.83.  Hope to get more of the .50 Angel Soft coupons in the next 60 days, which will ease the pain somewhat.

but I’m hoping to turn a profit during stomach flu season.

and I got 18 more stickers for pots…
