You can now buy stacks of School District toilet paper on Municibid

You can also bid on school buses, starting at $100. Yes, $100.

If no-frills toilet paper is your thing, have we got a deal for you: These 22 cases of 80 rolls of one-ply toilet paper, straight from the School District of Philadelphia, will go to the highest bidder.
The district is now auctioning off items on Municibid, the Center City-based ecommerce platform for government castoffs. You can snatch up school buses (circa 2001) starting at $100 and lots of toilet paper.
It doesn’t cost the district anything to list its items on the site and Municibid takes an 8 percent commission of every sale.

Companies: Municibid / Philadelphia School District
