Emergency dental floss and toothpicks

We ran out of dental floss the other day and we use the rollled type dental floss and its a bit expensive here . So mom told me that for the mean time we dont have dental floss and that she is using the yarn fir sewing as a temporary dental floss. The problem is, we are on a budget this month and that I am thinking of ways on how I can buy dental floss in a reasonable price. I checked online deals and I was lucky I found a seller and placed the order immediately. Its a different kind of dental floss, its not the rolled one and it has toothpick on the other side. Mom told me she is having a hard time using the new dental floss , I guess she is not that used to it because this is new .,I tried using it and it was okay to me. If you or your family is on a budget and there is an emergency that you need to buy something out of your budget would you spare some money from your budget?

There are some things you can't really do without I guess. I'd probably try to buy those even I was on a tight budget.

@JudyEv I agree too but for the meantime this is the only dental floss that matches with my budget and thats what I bought instead of using yarn ,I dont think its good for the gums and our teeth.
