Huck travels with his own bag (toys, ball, food, rain coat). I brought it all inside the house, and decided to take a potty break before I hit the road. That's when I noticed it, more like remembered it - my parents have really NICE toilet paper.
The toilet paper is super soft and feels strong like woven cloth. That, of course, is because my parents don't shop like I do. Naturally they consider price particularly on the larger ticket items, but they aren't on the same level of "bargain shopper" that I am.
When I was first on my own my default was to purchase what my parents always bought for products needed around the house. Bounty paper towels, All fabric detergent, Windex glass cleaner, Cascade dish detergent. But then I started paying attention to the prices and, consequently, the store brands. Knock-offs, generic, off-brands. I could save so much money by purchasing "less than the best;" it was still good enough for me.
It's not like I'm using sand paper in place of toilet paper, that's just silly. It would probably actually be more expensive to do that. With time I barely noticed what I was missing. That is, until I went to my parents' house and needed a quick pee break, now I'm ruined.
Is it bad that I thought about stashing a roll or two in my purse to take home? Just kidding...
