    My Hubby insists on Charmin Sensitive with aloe and E. I usually use Charmin Ultra-Strong in my throne room.

    Cottonelle has worked best here....seems less to use each time and fingers don't go thru!

    Have you noticed that the rolls are not as wide as they use to be. Angel Soft is the worse as far as narrow sheets.

    I read not too long ago that there reports of municipal sewage systems in the US having big problems because of the increased use of wipes. Most of the wipes say on the package that they are not flushable but I guess people don't read the packaging.

    If I buy anything but the Charmin sensitive hubby just looks. The other day I stopped to get gas and knew we were down to the last 1/4 roll and didn't want to go to market just for that. So I went into the convenience store and they had the Charmin Ultra Soft. I like it better but oh well. As far as water saver toilets, if I hold the lever down to flush til the water empties out of the toilet completely, we don't have to do multiple flushes.

Same thing with the low water toilet. If you have to flush several times, it uses more water than a high water toilet. Men, they are so silly sometimes!

    Walmart has a rollback on the Scotts 1000 - 20 rolls for $12.97
    Great Value 12 rolls for $9.24 (but their rolls are 1250 sheets)

    Thanks for all the suggestions. Only the Canadian brand is new to me, but will check it out. Yes, the rolls have gotten narrower, especially the cheap stuff used commercially. I had not thought of the sewer issue and would think thicker and softer could be a problem. It's for an RVer, which makes that a bigger issue, but it's a man looking for it, so that's his issue to deal with! Thanks, ladies; I knew I could count on you for anything.

    Sam's Members Mark brand is what I have been using for several months after searching for a replacement for our fav brand which we used for years and years...It went from excellent to worthless so I began the search.
