how long does it take to use 80 rolls of toilet paper? How much room do they take to store?

I have to cut back on my amazon mass purchases. I love a bargain, but if you have to build an extra room (or house) to store them, it's not such a good deal, maybe.

"how long does it take to use 80 rolls of toilet paper?"

I believe that depends on your diet.

Next time you are at the store buying groceries and toilet paper, ask the register clerk if they think you have enough toilet paper for the amount of food you are buying. Their reaction will be priceless.

and someone please tell me how much carbon do we have to spew into the air to wipe our butts? (7 day delivery, it's going to fly...)

If you've ever seen the process from tree to paper, it's incredibly carbon intensive. The delivery is a small part of the overall energy required.

Yep its going to fly and that very same space will be taken up by another one/something else geochem. So get over it and please wash your hands as your parents taught you.

80 rolls is a standard commercial case size. $39 is really cheap,
you might want to check the quality before you buy.

I will second that, the school in England I went to for a year had something that resembled wax paper in the boys loo. The only time I encountered something that bad was when a college roommate brought home a case of TP he bought off the back of a truck in New Jersey and expected us to all pitch in on it.

If you don't care a rats rectum about your grand-children's quality of life in the future, why should I???

I am "over it"

I believe that depends on your diet.

Whether or not you "go commando" is also a consideration.
