Curious what brand of toilet paper do you use??

[a kennedy]

We always bought Costco brand, but we haven’t gone to Costco for a while and we just keep buy different kinds to find one we like. Any suggestions?? Prefer softer variety.

[yellowdogintexas]

1. Charmin because it is not a Kochroach Brothers product

I check labels for Koch paper products and Charmin is from P & G

FYI Costco brand comes in on P & G trucks

2. Recycled

I have a problem with killing trees for TP.

Second Generation is the one I like.

[XanaDUer2]

3. CVS brand is very good nt

4. Who Gives A Crap

Seriously, it's a brand. We get the bamboo version because we like it so much better than the recycled one. It's a bit pricey, but for a good cause. It's soft enough for us and doesn't leave lint behind. And the boxes are always entertaining.

8. I loved the batch with the wrappers with cartoons where you had to find the loo.

It's a good product.

[piddyprints]

12. Yeah, they've had some funny ones!

I saved the wrappers and gave some coloring to a friend who enjoyed them very much. The ladies I donate my clothes to enjoy the boxes. There's something for everyone!

I'm not happy that their prices have shot up ridiculously, but that's the case all around.

BTW, their Dream Cloths last forever as dishcloths. I'm still on my first package, which I bought 2 years ago. I use them every day for dishes and toss them into the laundry several times/week.

24. Wow. I use angel soft. An F!!!! Well in 10 years (literally) when I run out,

I’ll be sure to not buy them anymore.

[a kennedy]

30. Should have known about this, just seeing for first time.....thanks for posting.

[JudyM]

31. Sure! Glad it's helpful in the dialogue.

Every little bit we can do helps, IMO.
Now if we could just mass produce good alternatives to plastics…

[a kennedy]

38. Now that would be a money maker, and I buy in.

[Sanity Claws]

5. People here really do discuss everything!

[Ferrets are Cool]

6. The bidet kind.

I know that doesn't help you, but once you use a bidet, you never go back.

[piddyprints]

15. You are so right!

I still use paper, but a lot less of it. My bidet doesn't blow dry my nether regions. It's just cold water.

My husband swore he would never use the bathroom that I installed the first bidet in. After about a week, it was the only one he would use. During Covid, we installed them the other bathrooms as well.

[NCjack]

25. I can't decide to switch to bidet. Please tell me more.

Is the final step to wipe dry with tollet paper OR cotton rags? If cotton rags, are they dropped into a bucket with disinfectant solution and next to washer on sterilize cycle?

It seems to me that toilet paper has an edge in convenience.

[Botany]

7. 7th generation products

[Pobeka]

35. How do they collect the used tissue for recycling?

.......

[Botany]

37. Very carefully. It is a shitty job.

n/t

[ProfessorGAC]

39. I Know You're Kidding, But...

...the 7th Gen packaging is a little misleading. Nearly all TP is at least 80% recycled paper. TP allows for 3rd & even 4th generation recycle. So, it's actually more cost effective to max out the recycle content.
Now, I've been to 7th Gen's corporate HQ, and they're a very good company. So, I'm not accusing them 9f anything.
But, there are lots of brands that are 100% recycled paper.

[Pobeka]

43. Yep. Paper recycling has come a long way in 40 years or so since it began in real volumes.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

9. Kirkland from Costco.

[Tikki]

26. Same...

Tikki

[Freddie]

10. Giant brand

The better one in the purple package (“if you like Charmin”). I wish it was known what store brands are actually Koch products.

[judesedit]

11. Noottrees

Love it. Not as soft, but doesn't fall apart or melt in your hand while using it, either. Made of sustainable bamboo pulp and is hyperallergenic, absorbant and free from dyes and chemicals.

21,000 trees a day are killed to make toilet paper. Trees that take 30 years to grow. Bamboos take 3. Well, worth the slight difference in feel for environmental benefit.

Hope you try it.

[Sneederbunk]

13. Cottonelle

[Midnight Writer]

19. Seconded.

[Redleg]

22. Thirded

It's the only brand my sensitive tushy can stand.

[Polly Hennessey]

32. Fourthed. Cottenelle is the only one my sweet

tender tush loves.

[Niagara]

41. Fifthed!

[Srkdqltr]

14. Scott single ply.

[Chipper Chat]

16. Me two

One roll lasts forever.

[MiHale]

18. Same here...

Got used to it when we had a septic tank after sewer hookup didn’t change.

[ShepKat]

20. 2 protocols

soft washcloth for pee and charmin for poo

[ironflange]

21. Purex

Canadian brand.

[EYESORE 9001]

23. I can't afford to buy TP anymore, so I've switched to newspaper

The Times are rough

[a kennedy]

29. Ok, now this made me laugh.

[WhiteTara]

27. Scotts Single ply because

we have a septic system and it's more ecological.

[yellowdogintexas]

34. definitely. We had septic & did not flush any paper

it went in the waste basket and my mom emptied it every day.

Also I think Scotts is another non-Koch company

[debm55]

44. Our plumber told us to use Scott as it won't clog the sewage system. We don't have a septic system.

[Laffy Kat]

33. Scott. It is one of the few not made by a Koch company.

I remember the brand by associating former gov. Rick Scott and shit. You're welcome.

[Emile]

36. Whatever is on sale.

[IcyPeas]

40. Kroger Soft & Strong

[Kali]
