      @DaveMcK, I think my question is clear. What do you mean by "please provide more information"?

        Are you maybe referring to CHARMIN? Lol, I don't watch TV or keep up on the commercials in Retirement but seem to remember the BEAR FAMILY. I use the cheap 1-ply Walmart huge pack once a month when the government deposits my Retirement Social Security. What do you and your wife use? Another interesting discussion my friend.

        I like Cottonelle..... a little pricey so I wait until my local grocer has a Buy one, Get one promotion or another promotion where they offer a discount but not quite a Buy one, Get one.....then I load up on product. Came in handy when there was a run on TP around the time of the pandemic.

         

        I was referring to several different brands in my original post....Cottonelle(named after a fabric material), Quilted Northern(had a commercial with a fake musical group called the Quilted Queens), and, of course you got Charmin's bears.

          The QQ hasn't made it to my market area yet. I thought the bears and groc. mgr. (Mr. Winkle) were both about Charman.

          We use several brands including private label. Just depends on which one is on sale. I think Kroger has 3 different named private labels, the middle one is as low as I go, it works (most important) and the price is alright, plus they run the package size I like on sale regularly. 

           

          Tarheel, you fooled me this time. When I started reading, I was thinking how is this going to get to DC.

            Stuck with Cottenelle for decades (actually just Googled and since first daughter born 1972).

             

            Tried Charmin for a few months but daughters and I agreed the "lint" from the rolls on the floor was far too much.

             

            Recently tried Walmart brand but it was one layer (should have read the description) and that was total loss; don't think double layer would be better as it's not "quilted".

             

            In the end, we stick with Angel Soft.

              📎  Denese @WebWiseWoman , I NEVER tried it, but Walmart has 2-ply. And the CHOICES are getting more COMPLICATED in my old opinion. Had to ask someone years ago what a CERTAIN TYPE was. Told me for RVs. Well I never had a RV, but learn't from that day to be careful. Lol, gone are the days you grab and go. But it is a good thing people have choices. HAPPY Saturday my friend. Nicole

              @SummerOnTheWay1,

               

              Talk about more complicated, now there’s toilet paper that tears NOT STRAIGHT ACROSS but in a WAVY PATTERN. Yet another choice…….

                As far as TP goes nothing is better than COSCO's TP.

                @DaveMcK, I don't particularly like COSTCO'S TP but I do buy Bounty Paper Towel there when they run a sale. What I save on paper towel alone versus the grocery store over the year literally pays for my membership fee. Of course, as most people do, I spend money on "impulse buys" almost every time I go.

                  Until the grands dump half a roll+ into the toilet.  Then I long for the older, thinner stuff.

                    I'd still like to know, are my daughters and I the only ones who think Charmin lint on the floor is excessive?

                      I was in the grocery business for 60 years and yours is the first time I ever heard that.
