Never skimp on toilet paper or underwear (underpants, socks, undershirts, anything that has direct contact with your skin and goes under another article of clothing). It's just not worth it.

Or in feminine products, you know, feminine pads. Never try to save in them.

My father never wore anything other than 100 percent cotton. I'll give you a heuristic for sheets. Never buy anything less than 200 threads per inch. I learned that from the ladies in the housewares department when I worked in retail. Anything less will pill and will feel rough. However I wouldn't bet that Egyptian Cotton has any useful meaning. Since almost no cotton anything is produced in the US, what you get today is a crap shoot.
As a side note apropos of nothing, my grandmother brought home pillow cases which had been flour sacks. She worked in a bakery. I was fascinated by the fact that they had a pattern printed on them. Obviously I am older than dirt.
Harry should use fireproof sheets and blankets in case he has nightmares and starts casting fuego in his sleep.

Since I am retired and my wife isn't, it falls on me to order supplies for my wife. I survive this process by following the explicit instructions given to me by my wife. It boggles the mind.
There is humor in truth, and with that Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and whatever salutation fulfills your requirements.

There used to be a type of cheap toilet rolls commonly called sandpaper in the supermarkets but I do not see it anymore, I do not know when it disappeared but nowadays all brands are usable. Sometimes it makes sense to buy something more expensive and at other times it is just hot air. Or extra fluffy paper with little pink dogs printed on them.
