Trigger Mike Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 My local gun store started selling toilet paper during the pandemic. Since toilet paper is going up due to inflation, I'm thinking of taking some ammo and see if they will trade for a case of toilet paper. Since I bought my ammo long ago, it'd be like getting my toilet paper for less than current market price. I'm thinking of starting out with 30 carbine or MAYBE a box of 9mm.
Yellowhouse Sam # 25171 Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 Throw in a bottle of ketchup and it might be a deal.
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 The current value of your 30 carbine might be higher than the TP.
Trigger Mike Posted April 12, 2021 Author Posted April 12, 2021 Probably. I might instead trade a bunch of ammo for a pistol and ask them to throw in the toilet paper.

Trigger Mike Posted April 12, 2021 Author Posted April 12, 2021 I found a box of 9mm by sellier and bellot I will take to see what they will give me. My sig shaves metal when chambering that brand plus the primers seem harder than winchester. I'm wanting to save cash since everything is pricing higher lately.
Pat Riot Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 The ketchup shortage is for ketchup packets, not bottles. The packaging companies are way behind.
MAYOBARD SASS #13025L Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 Ammo is to small to be used as toilet paper.

watab kid Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 got enough TP and dont like catsup/ketchup , but im seeing the advantage of having ample ammo - soon as this BS settles down im going to stock pile my favorites ;>]

Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 You waited too long to trade. The Wall Street Journal reports Americans have a surplus of TP.
Trigger Mike Posted April 13, 2021 Author Posted April 13, 2021 I saw that. The other day Kimberly clarke said they are raising the price of their paper.
