Thanks for the tip. Buying cheap TP feels good at the checkout but not at any other time, hehe.

As far as fluorecent lightbulbs there are so many studies and articles saying that if we all switched over to fluorecent bulbs from incandecent ones that there would be a huge savings of energy. Primarily my comment stands though, don't save on TP. Oh and for two items, red iPods, and I remember seeing some candles. Oh Greg, TP is an essential component that cannot be skipped on!

My entire home in London has converted to them. They're a bit of a pain in that it takes a few seconds for them to power on once you flip the switch, but the light is much purer and you can't help but feel pride that you're doing something good not only for your pocket but also for the environment.
