While trying to maneuver my tanker-sized cart down the aisle to save $3 on a coupon purchase at Costco, I intentionally strained to hear a heated debate between husband and wife over which toilet paper to purchase:
Him: "There's the Charmin, I'll get it."
Him: "There's the Charmin, I'll get it."
Her: "Wait a minute. If we use the coupon on it, it still might be more."
Him: "More than what?"
Him: "More than what?"
Her: "The Kirkland brand."
Him: "I hate unwrapping each roll in the Kirkland brand."
Her: "Let me figure it out (whips out calculator)."
Him: "Charmin's softer."
Her: "We save 4 cents a roll with Kirkland."
Him: "The Charmin's already in the cart."
Her: "Take it out and put in the Kirkland."
Him: "grumble, grumble, grumble..."
As they depart, I throw in a case of Charmin (because it's softer and I hate unwrapping each roll) and make my way down the aisle after them.
Abrupt screeching of the shopping cart wheels (their cart, then mine).
Him: "Hey honey, here's some of that Moose Munch Popcorn!!!"

Him: "Should we get it?"
Her: "I love that stuff."
Him: "Do you see how much it is?"
Her: "Put it in."
Cost = $9.37, but they saved $1.92 on the Kirkland brand of t.p.

LOL ha haaa ISN'T THAT THE TRUTH! josh and i do that all the time when we go shopping together.
I hate unwrapping the toilet paper! And I also like a little thicker ply than what kirkland gives. I guess everyone splurges on different things.
Funny! We can all talk ourselves in or out of anything! TP is very important decision!
