    we have a farm foods round here that has good deals on loo rolls 18 rolls of velvet were quite reasonable and last the best in our house anyway.

    I picked up 18 rolls (2 x 9 packets) for £5 last week in Somerfield, I thought that was pretty reasonable at the time, but didn't really stop to work it out, I admit?

    I noticed that Morrisons and Wilko's have had four packs of the posher stuff on offer for £1 (about half price to what it usually is) - it's probably not the cheapest but it's a bargain if, like me, you haven't got the storage space for huge packs of loo roll!

    We use Mr T's value. It felt very rough to start with but it was amazing how it became the norm...no one notices now.
  • I went to Morrison's today and I didn't see any loo rolls on offer, or any that I thought were worth buying anyway. So I bought their value 8 pack for 89p. Not tried it yet but I don't think hubby is gonna be too pleased :p .
  • Yeah I bought the Charmin from Lidls. Think it's £5.69 for 24rolls. Normally we pay £13 I think it is at Costco, for ummmm Im not sure how many rolls haha, around 50odd I think it is. Lasts us ages, and it's not bad either, dunno why people need expensive paper for their butt. My grandad would still be using newspaper if anyone let him Eeek

    Wilkos do 4 rolls for 60p which we find is fine but it's not recycled though.
