    Willowpop, I feel you pain (some of it anyway) - ibs requires lots of decent feeling loo roll too!

    Dragonette, I feel for you, my hubby has IBS and he doesn't have a fun time with it. For both of your sakes, I'm glad you have IBS and not crohn's though! I wouldn't wish crohn's on my worst enemy.

    Cheapest is false economy because the rolls are not as tightly wound and the inner tubes are much fatter than branded or supermarket own so much less paper per roll. You also tend to use more too as the paper is poor quality and prone to tearing.

  • Does anyone use price per sheet rather than price per roll to calculate value - for the reasons Chameleon cites?

    No.

    I use tesco value, just bought myself some cushelle from approved foods. Used to buy a brand from Lidl, was very cheap, think you got 10 rolls but dont really shop in lidl these days.

    I buy Sainsbury's Basic. Does the job.

    To me, just buying paper which is more expensive is a personal choice to do with perceived comfort.

    Another vote for Nicky from farm foods, they seem to have changed to 18 rolls for £3.75. Good stuff.
    Slightly bitter
  • Nicky, Cushelle from Lidl when on offer or Iceland 4 rolls for £1.
