Regular size, 16 oz? (not the industrial grade in large bottles).
It's not cheap, 21.99 but at least they have it; local stores are out.
If interested check it out.

What I didn't see coming was the TP shortage. That one (literally) caught me with my pants down!

My reaction: Better buy some disinfecting products before there's a run on them.
The rest of the world: Buy all the toilet paper now!
I completely didn't see that one coming and suffered a few tense weeks due to my lack of understanding of human reactions!

(118,865 posts)and stayed with my other brother the rest of the time. To thank us, he got toilet paper each (the 16 biggest rolls i have ever seen). He said when he left the store with one huge pack of 32 rolls he felt like a hoarder but that was actually the only pack left.

That's not a miscalculation anyone ever wants to make!

(19,569 posts)I'm just angry they're charging so much, but I deeply understand getting what you can where and when you can.
I'm not judging you at all, but them for being jerks.

(19,569 posts)We all need basic, essential items, and disinfectants right now are way up on that list.
I've been using a bleach solution on all my hard surfaces because it's what I have right now, and I hate the harshness of bleach on the environment. I do empathize.

2 16 oz bottles for $3.92 with a $5.99 delivery fee. Orders over $35 ship free.

(11,686 posts)at Costco. That might still be price gouging but it is the least expensive price gouging I have seen. It is actually for putting into spray bottles but it does the same coming from anything else one might put it in.

(11,686 posts)I really like Kirkland sanitizing wipes. I have a pack in my car for cleaning my steering wheel and the part of the dash board where I put my mask between each time I wear it for the day.
