Does your holiday season include hosting parties? out of town guests? ... or a bathroom break for neighborhood carolers?
Oh, come on. This time of year my bathroom sees an influx in traffic. Sadly, that can wreak havoc on our septic system. And when our bathroom is out of commission, well that sucks the Christmas Cheer right out of my day. Ya know what I mean?
This time of year I am stocking up, cleaning and getting ready for the unexpected. For last minute guests I try to have many small trial sized toiletries on hand for them. For people dropping by, a few extra home made gifts set aside, and possibly an extra holiday quick bread or wrapped cookies. Yes, I like to be prepared to keep my stress level down around the holidays.
But is your bathroom ready?
This Christmas season not only do I need to make sure my clean towels are out and the soap dispenser is filled, but since we have a septic system I also have to make sure that we are stocked up on the all important toilet tissue. I like Charmin brand because it has Roto-Rooter's stamp of approval to be clog-free and septic-safe, and more plumbers use it over other brands.
And I am not sure what is more frightening to me, having to clean up after Uncle Joe clogs the loo on Christmas day, or having to tell my host that the toilet is overflowing. Let's just avoid those holiday memories, okay?
Around the holidays, sometimes I try to snag bargains and save where I can, but I don't scrimp on our toilet tissue! Using Charmin means it is soft enough, strong enough and overall we need less.
And you might notice for the little kids, I keep the Charmin moistened wipes on hand as well. The Charmin Ultra Strong keeps our family happy. Is it just my family or are kids really hard on toilet paper? They just shred paper that is too soft.
I don't ask..
Charmin keeps us happy. And I love knowing that for more than 70 years, Charmin has been trusted in American homes. I grew up with the "Don't squeeze the Charmin" commercials, and my kids love the Charmin bears today. I just love worrying less about my bathroom and instead concentrating on making lasting memories.
Even with Uncle Joe.
How do you prepare for seasonal guests? Is Charmin on your list?
