  • Do you think these are a false economy?
  • Yes, the really cheapies just fall apart rather than stay as a wipe, so IMO you need more sheets,I buy a 'good' supermarket own brand.
  • Yes they are.

  • In a word. Yes.
    In several words. They tend to be smaller and not so thick and we go through them too quickly. Mind you that might be more to do with the fact that;

    a. My children seem to get off the loo, go out onto landing and yank the loo roll until they have several yards with which to wipe their tiny bottoms:rolleyes:

    b. same children use loo roll to bandage up their accident prone teddies when playing animal hospital

    c. I have a kitten who is the andrex puppy trapped in a small cat's body.:mad:

    So I buy tesco or lidl own brand or whatever's on offer:D

    Hi youngmum,

    We have a good thread on how to save money on toilet rolls that should help so I'll merge your thread with it as it helps to keep all the suggestions together.
