We've been thinking about going to the battery toothbrush thingy as well

Definitely recommend an electric toothbrush, they do an excellent job. Plenty of places offer them for 50% off RRP on a regular basis so it wouldn't be hard to find online for cheap.

The missus called me out for something today for something I do that probably belongs in this thread. When buying deodorant from the supermarket, sometimes I have a hard time telling whether any fellow shoppers have previously given the can I pick up a test spray in the aisle to test the fragrance (something I imagine a lot of us do). What I do is pick up five or six cans and take them to the fruit and veg section where weigh each of them on the scales individually. Whichever weighs the most, and they can vary slightly, I purchase.

I will often take a can that is 3rd or 4th from the front as I reckon some would have been tested a fair bit but to weigh them......

Lol so what you need to demand to see evidence of registration before you drive a car?

No, that's just an arsehole of a mate who lets him drive his car knowing its unregistered and isn't willing to pay he fine if they get caught.

 

[FRUMPY]

It does gross me out if anyone was using their toothbrush for fking months on end.


I change mine once a month.

Mine last a good year, easily

We used to watch the coupon show as well
In a way I'm glad we don't have that stuff here, our pantry is full enough now with s**t, the wife would go crazy if there was trollies of food/goods to be had for only a few bucks

Yeah and they stockpile it in their basements! Most of them have a mini supermarket down there its nuts!

Americans are just nuts in general. Walmart, Costco etc. are all about buying in massive quantities. A bag of chips is what, 200, 250g? I will happily buy 2 for $5 or whatever on sale and chuck them in the pantry, but I wouldn't buy any more than that. Not uncommon at all to find 400, 500g bags of chips in the states in regular supermarkets. I've seen cheese balls (Cheetos basically) in a 35 oz plastic barrel. That's roughly 1 kilo. Insane.

I was taken to costco in 2001 when i was over there was fking brilliant. I bought this massive box of willy wonka s**t- nerds, etc. Lasted me all summer. Bought a big box of mini oreos too. Mmmmm mini oreos

Was at Costco on the weekend. It's fantastic IMO.

An acquaintance advised me that his relo in laws pass on their kids underpants to their nieces/nephews to use. The receiving family then use it for their oldest child....and keep it for their youngest to grow into.

Lol do they also share the same bath of a night?

Thats sick.

 

[Scotland]

Maybe I'm alone here but it seems less weird the younger the kids are. I wouldn't have thought re-using any clothes on babies on toddlers was weird or gross, but passing down jocks from a 5 or 10 year old just seems wrong.

...

Bath sharing used to be pretty common if you were off town water. I wonder if it still is?
