To be annoyed that DS has "gifted us" over 1000 toilet rolls

[OonaStubbs]

They arrived by lorry today. We did not know they were coming. Now our spare bedroom is full of them and there are loads in the kitchen and living room as well. He said he got them as "a good deal from work" and he thought we would want them. But he forgot to tell us about it.

1 a week?! We are a family of 4 and it’s more like 1 every 2 days….

That's a lot of assumptions 😂

There's 3 of us, we go through 45 rolls a month delivered 😂

Never have I wanted a "photo, or it didn't happen" more! 😂

I thought about buying a pack of 12 the other day but thought nah, nowhere to store all those! Please take a photo OP!

I agree with everyone on here suggesting you call your local food bank or alternatively - just message all your friends and doll them out to people! I’d be delighted with some free loo rolls but not 1000 rolls 🤣

😂

Isn't your son expecting to get some? Or has he got 1000 packs of his own?

Op hasn’t replied in a while, hope we don’t see on the news that she was trapped under a mountain of toilet roll and couldn’t get out.

Are they soft or good old Izal tracing paper school bogroll

Is that the "toilet paper" that was like tracing paper and had a shiny side? It was horrific.

I'd be elated if this happened to me. I hate spending money on loo roll, it seems too expensive for something that gets flushed away.

What did he/she say when they dropped them off “Delivery for shitty arse” 🤣

Then I have the answer for you! I got a handheld bidet bottle from Amazon, and it's wonderful! HUGELY decreases the amount of loo roll you use, leaves you feeling really fresh and clean, and the nozzle gets the water right up in there, which feels surprisingly nice!

I LOVE it! Ha,ha,ha!

It’s brilliant. I love it lol.

The children’s entertainer we had recently uses 12 rolls per party by having the kids race to get it off the cardboard roll in the middle and then mummifying the adults.

You could see if you have a local one that uses the same game and would like some discounted rolls lol

Excellent idea!

My box of 24 that gets delivered every six months or so takes up a whole shelf of the airing cupboard. I can't even imagine what is do with more than 40 of those!

Donate to food banks and ask him kindly to not gift you large amounts of similar products in future without asking because of space issues. Suggest he may like to make donations to food banks directly.

How much did he spend OP? Even if they were incredibly cheap that's still going to be a lot of money on loo rolls!

It's a cube of 10x10x10 rolls, and a roll is about 10cm high and 10cm in diameter (but it might as well be a cube too). So basically a 1m x 1m x 1m cube.

A friend of mine visited Moscow in the early 1990s, when Soviet-era hard paper was still common. He got talking to an American who had moved there a few months earlier, and the subject of loo paper came up. The American said, "We call it John Wayne toilet paper. It's rough, it's tough, and it doesn't take shit off anybody".

Scrunch some toilet paper up, add water and then throw it up, as fast as you can, to your ceiling where it will stick and from an artex fashion get the press round tell them you want the Turner prize.

Donate them to your local food bank. Problem solved and helps others out who are less fortunate.

Is your DS some sort of prank/social experiment youtuber?

Otherwise is he actually ok?

I heard of the opposite happening - when a woman gave her DH a shopping list that had 'loo rolls' as one item, and he misread it and came home with 100 bread rolls!
