Ok guys, I really don't want you all to tell me how weird I am for any other reason than this...
.....today I went to get groceries and I needed paper towels. When I get paper towels, I will ONLY get the rolls with the kitties or doggies printed on them, or I don't get any. Seeing as I'm usually using them to clean up animal messes, why does it matter what print is on them?? And you should see me kneeling down reaching around in all the other paper towels, moving them aside, digging till I come up from the very back of the case with the animal prints!!! People look at me funny...

Do any of you do this or something similar?

IA. If you need me, just meow..
You know what? I recently found paper towels with the animal prints on them and I love them! Granted they are for the same reason you use them for, but hey, they match my deco in my kitchen, and well, I just plain like them. So in answer to your question.....YES I will go out of my way to find them again when I get low. I think they are just plain neat!

Why not? Paw prints would go along fabulously with all the cat fur in my house, so ofcourse I buy that kind. You should stick to the same theme, right?

I do that too! I have to get them to match whatever room they are in
If they don't have the box I want, I just won't get them @ that store!

I am the weird one ... I only buy the ones that are over 60 sheets and under 60 cents a roll... Kleenex I have to buy two types since My Mom is one who likes the box with the reach in style ... I buy what is more econical for me...

Hehe I bought a couple the other day. One had dogs and cats, the other had butterflies. Anyway when Chris sees them, he says, "You only bought these because they have cats on them." I said how else do you decide which ones to buy? I do the same thing with tissues. I don't buy a brand, I buy the prettiest box
