Just take along some empty little bottles, and squirt!

I guess TP just isn't as easy to promote as hand lotion.

Clothing designer. IIRC he's appeared as a guest judge or something other than a contestant on the reality TV show Project Runway at some point.

When someone starts producing designer toilet paper and provides it free to DL as an advertising initiative, we will finally be relieved of the single-ply, "pile up five layers and you can still read a boarding pass through it", "the third world has better" bum wad that the Sky Clubs provide.

I'm almost surprised that the SC toilet paper doesn't have advertisements. Maybe later this year we'll see Coca-Cola polar bears in the lavatories, like the cocktail napkins of previous holiday seasons.

Print the image of a certain DL executive on it, along with the slogan "We have your back(side)" and I can guarantee you that my consumption of the product would increase.

People would steal the toilet paper and desperately try to buy it on line.

I guess I'm too busy using it to ever notice the print on it.

I'm using a day pass this Saturday on a MR so I plan on visiting a lot of SC's.

Looking forward to JFK T4, ATL, LAX and maybe another if I can SDC. Look forward to trying the Mizrahi soap.

As a designer I think he's ostentatious and verbose. But as a soap licensee. Well winner winner chicken dinner. Haha.

Maybe the next season of Project Runway will have an episode based on something to do with an airport lounge, designer toiletries, or DL.

Great idea. MSP, you could be a producer. "I wanna be a producer..."

I think that having high end restroom products is a good thing. The details matter.
That being said, the MSP restrooms could really stand to be remodeled, and hopefully with stalls that are fully private like at JFK T 4.

I'm sure Larry Craig is hoping for the same thing, too
