I used Scott in my early 20s and a poor grad student. That was enough.

i discovered Scott toilet paper during the pandemic and now I am a total devotee. It. Lasts. So. Long!!! I can buy a twelve pack and I don't have to think about buying toilet paper (or, let's face it, hauling it home from the store) for months!

It also fits into the wall-alcove TP holder in my elderly bathroom.

I have not noticed that the paper is different. I don't notice a huge difference between Scott and "softer" brands (although my does complain). I grew up with "hard" toilet paper, though ...

I prefer the non-linty, reduced-clog chance of Scott to those poofy, linty, overpriced rolls (esp with old pipes in a 100+ year old house!). Haven't noticed a change in the quality of the paper.

Scott is the brand I was raised on, so I've continued using it into adulthood. I briefly switched to Northern at one point, but found that clogs were more frequent, so I switched back. The quilted softness of Northern is also the drawback IMO.

I bought a 30-pack of Scott at Costco at the height of the TP shortages in 2020. Thankfully, never had to crack into it - we were able to find our preferred brand before we ran out. It remained unopened in the basement, and I fully intend to leave it as a present for the new residents when we sell the house in 20 years or so.

Life's to short for crappy booze, or TP.

We've been ordering Tork online. Better than Scott, good for pipes/septic, doesn't leave residue "down there", and comes in a big cardboard box and not plastic wrap. Cheap, too.

I’ve noticed everything I buy is either poorer quality or in smaller packaging/quantity. It’s like we like in Europe now without the free healthcare.

Haven't really noticed. We only buy Scott to (1) protect the pipes and never deal with a clogged toilet, and (2) no TP lint. I don't know how you 7-ply weirdos overlook the white lint from the towely stuff.

Don’t really care, will stick with Scott to protect our pipes.

Quilted Northern all the way. It’s the right balance, with Charmin being over the top the other way.

Yes. I've actually noticed this with Charmin too. The "ultra soft" really isn't so soft. I wonder if the pandemic demand caused them all to cut corners.

I thought Scott’s toilet paper was for if you are practicing for prison.

Scott has always felt like tissue paper. Can’t imagine it could feel any worse.

We are a Scott’s household because my wife doesn’t like the super soft quilted northern-type tp because it tends to leave more “residue” down there. For my part, I haven’t noticed anything odd about the recent Scott’s rolls.

I have always purchased Scott toilet paper for it’s incredible value.

Probably for the past twenty-five yrs.

It has always been relatively soft however the last pack I bought I noticed a huge difference in the texture.

It now feels more rough to the touch > kind of more of a paper feel.
Similar to a generic brand.®️

Have any of you noticed this as well?
