But not so with toilet paper.
{via}
It feels like I've been robbed EVERY.DANG.TIME.
Part of problem is that I don't know what kind of toilet paper to commit to. What do I really want in toilet paper? Quilted? Two-ply?
Do I want it to be thick? Do I use less if it's thick?
Do I want more smaller rolls or fewer big rolls?
(For replacement effort, I must want big rolls. No?)
Does the number of sheets per roll really mean anything?
There is so much information on a package of toilet paper, but none of it is actually helpful. Especially if you try to compare one package to another. It's like trying to translate two different languages, and no one is bilingual in TP.
I usually buy our TP at Sam's Club or Costco. I don't know if I'm getting a good deal, but at least I can buy a gigantic package, put it in my basement, and not have to buy toilet paper again for about a month and a half. When Charmin is discounted, I buy Charmin. You can't go wrong with Charmin because it's like wiping with rose petals.
Or can you go wrong with Charmin?
What if those cartoon bears have fooled us all?
HOW SHOULD I KNOW?
Have any of you figured out the toilet paper thing?

My hubby will only use Charmin, so my decision is easy. LOL I usually buy it at Sam's Club or Costco for the same reasons you do, but last time Target ran a special I could tell it was a much better price than either of those, so I got it there.
(I will use whatever's available, obviously, but I have to admit that I love the soft squishiness of Charmin, too.)
All I know is that the ONLY time I truly care about the attributes of toilet paper - quality, softness, thickness - is right after I have a baby. And at that time quality is all I care about and price matters very little :)
I have to buy the smaller-sized rolls because the giant quilted ones won't fit in the stuck-into-the-tile-wall-since-1957 TP holder...and *clearly* I'm not about to stray from that spot for TP.
