Seriously, how do I stop him buying toilet roll?

Is he an extreme coupon'er - it may have only cost him £0.5p for the lot! Grin

Can you tell what rubbish I watch on TV!

squeakyeggs · 05/04/2016 13:51

although to be fair to your husband I am currently looking at 27 packets of wetwipes, 15 bags of nappies and 4 nappy bin liner cassette things.

With the exception of the nappies, we will use pretty much the rest of it by the end of the month.

We also have in the region of 50 toilet rolls under the stairs. Again, they will all be gone by tyhe end of the month because it seems like my dc flush whole rolls at a time down the toilet

All these people must be related to my DP too, we had a wheatabix incident... The kids cry when we buy it now.

The crate of washing up liquid .... We have a dishwasher.
The loo rolls
The caprisuns
The crates of Pepsi Max
The washing powder
The zoflora.

He's a macro man.

If that container it's beside decides to explode at any stage there'll be a bog roll tsunami for miles around. Ordinary people will be pelted unconscious by flying toilet roll torpedoes.

ivykaty44 · 05/04/2016 13:55

Excellent, my loo roll tower is much smaller and now I can say it's not as big as ops dh when I get teased

ElviraCondomine · 05/04/2016 13:56

My DH stock piles shower gel. His excuse is always "It's on offer". Even when I lined up 13 unopened bottles of the same brand plus the 3 open ones he refused to accept that it's an issue.

Does. My. Head.In.

Grin this cheered me up

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 05/04/2016 14:04

I did point out that the truly enormous vat of jam and bucket of honey he came home with made us look like we were from Lilliput at breakfast.

Now that has made me laugh out loud GrinGrinGrin

GreenMarkerPen · 05/04/2016 14:06

did he at least got a great discount when bulk buying?

Chattymummyhere · 05/04/2016 14:07

I feel under stocked now I only have two unopened packs.

I miss the days I had space to bulk buy stuff, now children's stuff fills every space.

EveryoneElsie · 05/04/2016 14:10

Bog Off. Geddit? Bog Off.
I shall see myself out.

MitzyLeFrouf · 05/04/2016 14:10

Tell him to get his toilet roll fetishising self onto Amazon. 45 rolls for £17. Phwoar.

Will it reaching the ceiling stop him?Grin

Topseyt · 05/04/2016 14:11

I don't know for sure that it would occur to my DH to buy loo roll until we had actually run out and he was literally sitting there in dire need. Grin He is a hoarder, but not of the bog roll variety.

I haven't dared to let that happen, for the sake of all of us. I have either a six pack or a nine pack next to each of our toilets.

bookbook · 05/04/2016 14:12

Hahahaha! some of your DH's must be clones of mine - makro here!
Toilet rolls/kitchen towel/kleenex/baked beans/tinned tomatoes/coffee/corned beef/ Blackcurrant squash
Toilet rolls, kitchen towel and tissues in loft
Tins and bottles in shed
There are only 2 of us
Our (grown up ) DC's know in an apocalypse, we are the go to destination....

Binders1 · 05/04/2016 14:14

Everyone Grin Grin

DontcarehowIwantitnow · 05/04/2016 14:14

I'm a bit like this Blush

My DH joked this morning that we will have to pop to Costco later as we are down to the last 10 packs.

Charlesroi · 05/04/2016 14:16

I agree with MadamDeathstare

In the impending zombie apocalypse a nice clean arse will make all the difference

Songofsixpence · 05/04/2016 14:19

My DH is the same. He's a sucker for anything on offer.

We used to have to store beans, loo roll and kitchen roll in the loft

I confiscated his Macro card. He'd go in for something for work and come out with a 100 tins of beans, 200 loo rolls and a larva lamp

Floralnomad · 05/04/2016 14:27

My sister goes to Costco ,she bulk buys washing stuff, dishwasher stuff ,cleaning stuff ,bleach ,kitchen rolls and keeps it all in my mums garage , if I'm getting low on anything I 'go shopping' in the garage to stock up - it's brilliant as we all like the same brands so I don't even have to compromise .

Notimefortossers · 05/04/2016 14:27

Haha! I feel your pain! My DH would totally be this bad if I didn't have an emotional breakdown about it when he does it ;)

DecaffCoffeeAndRollupsPlease · 05/04/2016 14:30

Do you pay for the cards to shop in these places?

How bargainous is it, example on the toilet roll anyone?

LumpySpacedPrincess · 05/04/2016 14:42

My parents are like this with weetabix, I don't get it.

Floralnomad · 05/04/2016 14:49

decaff , as an example Costco do offers like 40 rolls of charmin loo roll for £10 and dettol laundry detergent at £3.50 for a bottle twice the size of the bottle that Tesco sell for £4.50 .

cozietoesie · 05/04/2016 14:56

We used stones on a hike once. I think a tower of toilet roll is preferable to heaps of stones in various places.
