I was at Wal-Mart this week to pick up paper towels.
See how thematic The Nirvana is this week?
When I got to the bright and shiny aisle, I just had to grab my camera.

Yep, there is over 20 feet of Bounty bulk paper towel packages. Since I only have a handy size chart for Charmin –
and there doesn’t seem to be a Charmin to Bounty conversion table – in my purse, I was at a bit of a loss in the Bounty department.
Let’s find large white rolls of paper towels for the best price!
Please stop pushing your brother! You boys need to stay with me here.

No one should be hitting any person or thing! Brothers are nice to each other.
Let’s find large white rolls of paper towels for the best price!
Stop wrestling! No one should be touching a brother.

All boys need to behave or we will be skipping the toy aisle!

OK. I am going to stop right here. I want off this crazy train.
I have two
solutions for this overwhelming Bounty paper towel choice problem:
1. Bounty could make large white paper towels in big packages –
if they search their line carefully, they might find they already produce such a product.

2. Wal-Mart could move a portion of the toy aisle –
I suggest Transformers, Legos and toy guns – to allow frazzled moms a moment in peace to figure out which is the right product.
It would give us a chance to solve the Where’s Waldo paper towel search.

Until one of my solutions are adopted, I am boycotting paper and pulling out the old fashioned, cloth…
towel.
You didn’t even mention regular or select-a-size (my preference). And I don’t know about you, but I always buy plain white. No autumn leaves or Easter egg business for my kitchen. 🙂
If you go to Costco you know you’re getting the Kirkland brand–no muss, no fuss. Of course you’ll spend $100 on other stuff while you’re there!
When I get to this point, I “pretend” that I have a brand that I absolutely love and just buy that brand…Lately, it’s been Brawny. It could cost twice as much but the alternative requires a scientific calculator with the special toilet paper/paper towel function. My mind of late cannot handle such extensive calculations, hence my break from reality.
You’re all about the paper products this week. We just by the jumbo pack of the Costco. I know nothing of this dilema.
I don’t care how much they cost I will never buy any other paper towels except VIVA brand. Try them once and I bet you that you will feel the same. I double dog dare you!
Clearly your boys are better behaved than mine at Walmart. There is not stopping to consider…I grab what is closest and I am thankful that I got it!
I’m just super impressed you took all three boys with you! No duct tape or bungee cords in sight! 😉
Lets try this again 🙂 I have been booted out of this comment thing three times while trying to type this.
Where was I….
oh yeah! I am so with you on this! It gives me a headache having to decide which PT and TP to buy! 🙂
There I made it through this time. 🙂
Do the have a Tide chart cause from the looks of the “fighting boys” photos is that there needs to be a Tide Chart too!
The toy search could be in each aisle, but that would than force us to shop all the aisle to find the toy we are looking for. I don’t know about you but my Wally World is 6 acres UNDER the roof. No thanks!
I cannot boycott the paper towel aisle at all. I have two puppies that still have potty accidents inside.
I buy my paper towel in super bulk at Costco. Whatever is on sale I buy!
If you just buy the triple,super-ultra, mega giagantor industrial pack of to the power of 10 uber roll, downy soft bath towel thick, rose-scented, industrial-commune, good for the environment size Charmin, you could skip the paper towels altogether.
