    The first roll I bought seemed like 1/4". The second roll seemed much thinner. For the (regular) price, I'm sticking with Dream products.

    Reusing all those plastic bottles still seems like a good idea for the time being (until something better comes along). Dream Green is what I use a lot (when you don't need a higher loft). Fifty or...
