from Great Value at Walmart, not to be confused with Great Value's Ultra Strong (which is priced a bit higher).

I buy the 18 mega roll mega pack which is equal to 72 regular rolls. I keep 4 of these mega packs in the home at all times.

It runs (no pun intended) $0.15 to $0.31 cents per 100 sheets. It's 50% savings compared to Charmin Ultra. Good Housekeeping ranked Great Value's Soft & Strong the Best Value.

Great Value toilet paper is manufactured by Sofidel. Some years ago Great Value toilet paper used to be manufactured by Clearwater Paper Corp.

I prefer Cottonelle toilet paper but that's about $0.34 to $0.65 per 100 sheets. I just won't pay that anymore.

We just had a Costco built in Buffalo and it won't open until August. It's still 20 minute drive from me and a membership fee that I would never pay for. I'm betting 100 to 1 that there's not a whole lot of grocery items that I could eat from there anyways. I know for a fact there's nothing I could eat at the food court.
