I convinced London Drugs on Granville Street to stock recycled toilet paper

3 months ago I asked the London Drugs on Granville Street to stock recycled toilet paper. They never did. Last week I spoke to the manager and made the same request. At first he responded that recycled toilet paper didn't exist. I told him I was able to buy it from their Hastings Street store.

He then changed his tune, and said because they had such a small store there wasn't room to stock recycled toilet paper, and no one would buy it. I said- oh so you did stock it before?

He said yes they had done tests but no one bought it.

I said- times are changing. Perhaps you should try stocking it again.

So he took my phone number and agreed to bring in some packages. i just got the call that they have arrived.

I'm going to go buy as package from them tomorrow and I think it would be great if anyone who has the chance go there and make the same request.

Ideally it would be the only kind they should stock in a small store.

Update: I got the call that the toilet paper was in last week- however when I called today to confirm they told me it was sold out but they would have some on their shelves for this Friday. You need to call (604) 448-4802 to confirm that they have it.

They say the yare still watching to see if it will sell- since they have such small stock space. But if enough people say they want it as a permanent fixture- they can't (shouldn't) refuse.
