Okay, true story, happened moments ago...

My supervisor is standing in my cubicle talking about a book I'm typesetting and she accidentally knocks over her coffee mug, spilling coffee onto the desk. Quick as a flash, I've unzipped my attaché case and pulled out the handy roll of "Towels to Go"* which we used to mop up the spill. No mad dash to the bathroom or kitchen - what I needed was at my fingertips. It's being ready for the everyday 'emergencies' that makes this preparedness mindset so valuable.


*On a side note, I got these at a local clearance/outlet store for 59¢ per roll (I bought all they had - 9 rolls). In doing more reserach, it appears that back in 2002, Cotton Buds Inc. got the Procter and Gamble contract to produce "Bounty to Go" and "Charmin to Go" dispenser packs. This looks like a plain-wrap offering by the same company, perhaps of overrun supplies. Other than this, there is little mention of them in Google searches and I have not seen this product anywhere else.

Sometimes you have to snatch up the bargains when you find them. You never know when you'll need them!
