Toilet rolls query

[cjethani]

What is the best price for toilet rolls and paper towels? how do we calculate and figure out whats the best price...?
Is there any good deal this week for toilet roll and paper towels ?

[dlee]

there's a really detailed thread about this somewhere that gives a formula for quality vs. quantity (toilet sheets vs. ply, etc etc.)

I'll see if I can find it for you...

I don't analyse that purchase so much except for price. I have two brands that I really like (just hate Charmin!), and I consider 33 cents a roll or less a good deal.

Price per roll - if you're not picky about brand -- isn't very accurate. You'd be surprised at how different the number of sheets/roll is from brand to brand and then it depends on double rolls vs. single rolls etc. For a true cost comparison you need to compare number of sheets - as done in the thread provided by a previous poster...

But I am being brand specific and I buy double rolls. Why would I waste my time drilling down to the cost per sheet?

Then maybe you don't care - but I was pointing out for OP that calculating cost per roll isn't necessary going to find you the best deal. I was just trying to help...
