Question What's your favorite/least favorite toilet paper

I love Kleenex tp, however it also has to be the least favorite when it comes to the kids using it. They always use too much of it and plug the toilet. I keep telling them to use less, but they are so use to using other tp and having to use lots to get the job done, they do the same with Kleenex tp.

What's your favorite and least favorite.

My favorite is either Cottonelle or Quilted Northern. My least favorite is Scott or ShopRite brand. I like the quilted brands. I don't like the thin types.

Quilted Northern, if I couldn't get it I don't know what I'd use! I have used Soft and Gentle which is made by the same company and it's pretty good quality.

I like Quilted Northern. My least favorite is store brand, but that was in our very hard times after the auto accident. Talk about cheap TP. OUCH

My least favourite is the Cottonelle brand becuase it always seems to go so fast! My fav is actually a store brand is cheap but really thick and lasts forever!

Favorite is Kleenex Cottonelle. You're right, it can clog the toilet if you use too much. LOL

Least favorite is any of the cheapy thin store brands. Can't stand those.

TP isn't a priority to me. I usually buy Scott because it seems to be the best value. Plus, I don't have to keep changning the role.

Favorite is Scott or Costco brand Kirkland-- both really cheap and I dont have to worry about the kids clogging the toilet with it.

When we lived at our old house, Scott was recommended b/c disolves quicker and it didnt clog the sewer pipes like the soft fluffy stuff- However, Scott does take some time to get use to. Because it is so cheap and doesnt clog the pipes, I know if the kids use half the roll I wont have to call a plumber
AGAIN!

Favorite is Cottonelle double or triple rolls. They also have a nice aloe vera brand. My least favorite would be any type of colored paper as the dye gives me a rash.

Rhonda, is doesn't matter if it's just tp. For my bottom, I want it soft and quilted. I think after all these years I deserve the best tp there is. I've used it enough to warrant it, don't you think. There is nothing worse than going into a store and using their washrooms and they have scratchy tp. Drives me nuts.

CJ, I can honestly say that since I'm become a frugal miss I don't care about the tp. I can remember my grandma having squares of newspaper in her outside loo. Cheap tp is a big improvement on that.
