Real Good prices: For

Real Good prices:

For quantities similar to what I buy at the supermarket or the dollar store.

Bleach 64 oz. $5.25
Facial tissues $2.33 per 175 count box
Bathroom tissue $1.33 per 1000 sheet 1-ply roll
White paper towels $1.88 per 70 sheet roll (2-ply)

Supermarket or dollar store prices:

Bleach -- Clorox -- 96 oz. $1.50-2.00
Facial tissues -- Kleenex -- $1.59 per 200 count box
Scott bathroom tissue -- $.78 per 1000 sheet roll (1-ply)
Sparkle paper towels - $.83 per 60 sheet roll (2-ply)

These are my local prices, of course. And don't include shipping but do include gas and time. Quantities couldn't realistically be the largest available from Real Goods so I tried to compare apples and apples as I already buy the largest size I can sensibly store -- the 9 pack of bath tissue or the 6 pack of paper towels.

Words to live by

Clinton had to raise the stakes by raising the bar: It’s Tuesday or bust.

And along with victimhood, Clinton has finally found a powerful theme, the same theme that George W. Bush used at his convention and in his reelection campaign in 2004: Vote for me or die.

With her “3 a.m. phone call” ad, she is saying exactly what Bush said: I will protect you and your children, and the other guy will not.

Yes, there is irony in a Democrat trying to getting the nomination by adopting a Republican tactic, but, hey, you know what? It worked back then, and Clinton is betting it will work now.
