Chemist doesn't sell loo roll

That doesn't come up on the boots website for me, maybe you have to have an account with them to buy it

I’ve never seen one that sells toilet roll, not even boots etc.

I’m guessing there’s a chance they’d sell baby wipes and nappies so I’d get some baby wipes but I’d have looked for a peri bottle or even a water bottle with a squeezey lid to use as a bidet if toilet roll was low.

Never seen it in a pharmacy...just checked Boots and Lloyd's they don't sell it in a way you can view online

Oh wow! Out chemist / pharmacy sells loo roll, kitchen roll, all cleaning materials like fairy liquid, bleach, Dettol, loo cleaner, air fresheners, dishwasher Tabs, carpet cleaner, along with OTC meds, makeup, shower bubble bath, shampoo, hair gel etc. And this just isn’t just one independent chemist, it’s all in my location.

Do I live in a different universe?!

My mum used to work for Boots. We definitely had their lavvy roll. Things like washing up liquid as well if I remember correctly.
I only go to Boots these days for a meal deal.

I just looked at their site.
Seems they don't anymore.
They definitely used to.

I worked in a small independent community pharmacy.

We sold loo roll. Andrex plain, ordinary. Not much - except during covid, then we didn't bother unpacking it, just sold it from the delivery cage.

I dont remember seeing loo rolls in my local boots branches, one small, one pretty big and can't see anything on their online shop either

They probably don't sell toilet cleaner, air freshener, bleach etc so that makes me think they are not supplying anything toilet related. Illnesses, injuries, cosmetics, body care but nothing to do with actual toilets.

I know super drug does sell bog rolls as I bought them there in lockdown when supermarkets were empty.

Some people with IBS take Imodium. It slows down the movement of food through the gut.

I don't think the independent pharmacy in my village stocks loo roll, but it does sell a small range of cleaning products, birthday cards, coffee and tea to take away, sweets and biscuits, ice-cream and for a couple of weeks before Fathers Day, gift boxed tools. It is generally poorly stocked with toiletries and OTC medical items and does not open on Saturdays. Some days there is no pharmacist on site for a few hours in the morning or some afternoons so no prescription meds can be handed over at those times nor any OTC items that require a pharmacist to be on the premises.

True! Although I was trying to make the OP feel a bit better with the ‘it’ll be forgotten’ comment. But in all seriousness, I truly do think it will have been considered funny in the moment but not that funny that it will be remembered.

Like kitchen roll, is liable to block drains.

If you see no option, use minimal amounts in small pieces, and flush plenty of water after, such as pulling the bath plug.

It would be safer to use the Greek method of paper disposal. I suppose you could burn it if you have a coal or wood fire.

Our local chemist sells loo rolls, paper towels, tissues and all sorts of cleaning products. They are part of a chain. Not sure if the independent chemist sells them. Growing up the local chemist's didn't sell them as far as I remember.

Saying what you did in a loud voice so that they could hear was very rude of you @Poodlelove - even if you thought (wrongly), that all chemist's must sell loo roll.

that the plan for the protest to get the chemist to stock loo rolls next step is petition to cancel the chemist and sack the staff lol

have you got a petition to get chemist closed and staff sacked yet never known a chemist to do loo roll tissues maybe

I haven’t seen toilet roll in a chemist for about 20 years! They are usually small premises and toilet rolls takes up a lot of space.

You were behaving like a passive aggressive twat saying loudly (to no one) that you thought it was odd they didn’t sell any

Chemists around here used to be the last bastion of coloured Andrex in 2 roll packs. Depending on size of shop, I would be surprised they didn't run to it.
Water company won't be happy with kitchen roll or tissues down the bog - if they manage to make it to the main drains.

Can you maybe just drag your bum along the ground like Leonard?

Could you buy bandages and use that instead of it's an emergency?

Or will it , certain nutty customers are definitely remembered.

All my local chemists sell loo roll. I assumed they all did!

Exactly

Chemists always sell toilet paper in my country. I’m not in the UK. It’s usually stacked near the front of the shop to tempt you in because you’ll see it and remember that you need some or it’s a great price, and then you might buy something else like skin care or vitamins. I always buy mine from a chemist because they’re the cheapest. Cheaper than Aldi.

Other items they might sell as a cheap item to tempt customers in include laundry detergent, dish detergent, paper towels/kitchen roll, toilet cleaner, and things like that.

Chemists sell medications and products to help you poo and stop you from pooing. Only makes sense that they sell the product to clean up after a poo.

OP stock up from Amazon on their Prime days - I got 45 rolls Andrex recently for a bargain price - all delivered. There things make me very happy now.
