Anything produced by Georgia-Pacific and which makes such brands as Quilted Northern, Vanity Fair, Brawny, Sparkle, Mardi Gras, and Dixie.

Now I have a commercial sewer and have kept with it. Got use to it and found it’s doesn’t clog the plumbing, cost less and better for the environment.
Next step will be hemp paper when the cost comes down.

I can't do much, but I can afford to not buy their brands, if I can figure them out

24. I purchase Soft & Strong 2 ply, septic safe toilet paper
Mon Jun 29, 2026, 05:19 PM

from Great Value at Walmart, not to be confused with Great Value's Ultra Strong (which is priced a bit higher).

I buy the 18 mega roll mega pack which is equal to 72 regular rolls. I keep 4 of these mega packs in the home at all times.

It runs (no pun intended) $0.15 to $0.31 cents per 100 sheets. It's 50% savings compared to Charmin Ultra. Good Housekeeping ranked Great Value's Soft & Strong the Best Value.

Great Value toilet paper is manufactured by Sofidel. Some years ago Great Value toilet paper used to be manufactured by Clearwater Paper Corp.

I prefer Cottonelle toilet paper but that's about $0.34 to $0.65 per 100 sheets. I just won't pay that anymore.

We just had a Costco built in Buffalo and it won't open until August. It's still 20 minute drive from me and a membership fee that I would never pay for. I'm betting 100 to 1 that there's not a whole lot of grocery items that I could eat from there anyways. I know for a fact there's nothing I could eat at the food court.

We go through a lot of it here (you can never have too much TP or chocolate squirreled away.) The store brand at our local IGA is just as good too. Half the price of name brands.

bleaching, or dioxin and formaldehyde content that cause, skin irritation. Most major brands poison the environment with chemical processing, and the environmental impact from deforestation.

Better yet get a bidet.

…products for us, and I can’t stand the stupid Charmin’ ads with the blue bears raving about how clean their butts are. Never liked the Mr, Whipple ads either.

They claimed one sheet was all you need! Each sheet had a hole in the center where you stuck you middle finger. ahem!
When finished, you simply grabbed the sheet from underneath with your other hand and scooped it upward to clean your finger!

(Didn't sell really well!)
Butt...it WAS funny!
