Toilet paper ripoff
And, yes, there IS a pun intended.
;-)

But seriously, folks...
Our toilet paper rolls look to be about 2/3rd the size they used to be.
Same brand.
Charmin, I think.

The just look smaller, and the distance between a new roll and the wall is larger than it was.
Damn paper companies.
:-(

1. They've been doing that for a while now.
What is sold as a "double roll" is the size a regular roll used to be!
