Kitchen Roll & Toilet Roll

Hello Everyone

We seem to go through loads and loads of kitchen roll and toilet roll and I wondered if anyone knew of a place where we could get it in bulk and for a reasonable price?

l'm thinking more along the lines of those big blue rolls like you see at the entrance of the supermarkets that you use to dry the trollies when the weather is bad?

As for toilet rolls, well we just never seem to have enough, I think someone is eating it in our house! lol

Thanks,

Sally

    How about the local market? My mum buys 20 for under a tenner at her local market. Not sure if costco do stuff like that but might be worth a look.

    She also gets a massive blue roll from the market, i know morrisons do a jumbo roll in white for roughly £2 and so do wilko, prob a bit cheaper.

    Hope this helps.

    Have you got a Costco near to you?

    We buy toilet roll and ordinary kitchen roll for us from there but my Dad likes having the big rolls of paper in his kitchen so we bought a holder and rolls of paper from Costco for him and it seems to be lasting for ages.

    I hate kitchen roll as they seem so wasteful and unnecessary.

    I never but kitchen roll unless we are having a bar b q - cheaper to use it for kids than serviettes !

    I use cloths to wipe stuff, a mop for the floor. On loo roll I try to stock up when there are any offers on at all the main brands, rather than buy value makes as this, imo , doesn't give as good value per sheets per roll

    best value and quality toilet roll I've found is at lidls, its in packs of 10 rolls I a long oblong package- rolls packed side by side not on top of each other, can't remember name think it begins with F. Cost 1.30 ish and lasts loads longer and better quality than value stuff.
  • Loo roll is the only thing I won't compromise on - I HAVE to buy Andrex. I do buy kitchen Roll, but look for good value ones - Costco sell it quite cheaply and every now and again they have it on BOGOF.

    How about using washable cloths instead of disposable ones :confused: It'll work out chepaer and better environmentally, in the long run ;)

    There's an older thread here - toilet rolls - best way of saving?
