Why oh why did I buy 1 ply toilet paper?

It scrapes the delicate bits. It's not as effective, so we're using more, and it's clogged the toilet twice. Why do they even make it?

Never again.

They make it because it doesn't clog. Use less.

When we use 2 ply we've never had clogs. Now we've had two clogs and overflows in a week. If I use less, I don't feel clean.

Made that horrible mistake once at Costco. Darn stuff lasted forever.

When I rent out my condo, I'm considering putting in the lease that the tenant must only use 1-ply Scott toilet paper, and NEVER EVER those awful "flushable wipes."

In 5 years, we've had 3 clogs. 2 were solved simply by letting things sit for 30-60 minutes. The toilet paper basically dissolves and the clog solves itself on its own.

Once required a simple zip-it. Took seconds to fix.

The cheap stuff is the gold stuff, as far as I'm concerned.

The way not to clog is to use an appropriate amount. Since you want to use more, and it's clogging your toilets, then donate the rest of the pack and buy other TP. Life's too short.

I'm pretty sure it's never meant to be used. It's just there to sit on a shelf so you feel like you have a fully stocked supply.

Flush as you go, why wait until the very end if you're using that much?

Also, the two-ply or thicker stuff is leaves lint. I don't know why, as it doesn't seem to do this to everyone, but the thicker toilet paper always "pills" and leaves lint all over my nether regions. No thank you.

+ 1 I used Scott for years and years, but now it's so thin it can't even do the job without tearing apart. Not sure what it would even be good for.

OP here. I'm gonna bring the remaining rolls to work and covertly place them in the stalls.

Long live Cottonelle!

Not to me. I love it! Charmin is the worst. Talk about leaving "lint."
