Toilet Roll Argument

jackieb

Our Co-op was selling off rolls of Izal for 10p, so I bought one to show the kids what we had to use at school. Would they try it? Not on your nelly. It's of no use nor ornament that stuff. If you're a girl and you pee, you just got a wet hand! And well, if the boys ever had to use it....

Whoever thought that greaseproof paper was good for cleaning your bum?? Was someone baking some day and thought, 'I know, this stuff that stops my biscuits from sticking to the baking tray would be great to use as lavvy paper!'

I noticed some on the 'Oops' shelf at work - think it was 20p though, so wasn't tempted.:rolleyes:
You would be surprised at how many 'Home Shopping' customers order the 'smart-price' bog rolls - perhaps it's because they won't be seen carrying it around the store.

I was going to say "I can't believe people take the time to review toilet paper", then realised that we've been writing this thread for over a year now..


"Best paper in the world provided you know how to use it. Rather than dabbing and mopping with it as you would with conventional "nancy boy" soft paper you mneed to do a bit of origami and form it into a small shovel and scoop away at your bum untill it is sparkley clean and because of the medicated magic of Izal totaly free of all known germs. "

We get tesco value as well, although sainsburys basics is about the same price but loads softer IMO

so should we discuss the correct method of 'hanging' a loo roll to get more off it?

Ohhh...it HAS to be flappy bit at the front! Although I do squash it first to stop it turning so easily, which prevents people from unintentionally taking more than they need!

Just 'squeeze' the roll before you put it on the 'holder' - very difficult to pull off more than 2 sheets.

I am currently using co-ops own brand only because it was on a BOGOF, I usually go to Netto and buy Andrex 16 roll packs or in Lidl toilet paper is sold in 24 roll packs.

I can remember that horrid Izal paper - it was just like greaseproof and all scratchy (certainly not good for delicate little places).
