There was a block of chocolate in my letterbox, no note. Has the Easter Bunny come early?

What’s your go-to toilet paper brand? Usually get Quilton in bulk from Amazon but they have no stock and I have no idea what to buy, it’s been my choice for ages.

The Aldi double length 3 ply Confidence brand. Comes in a four pack or an eight pack. Good quality, cheap and one roll lasts quite a long time. Yes it does fit in my roll holder. During covid I was getting the triple length rolls from colesworth and they only just fit the holder. My holder is a suction one from Bunnings and is not a permanent attachment but works fine on the tiled wall of the toot. And I can move it around if I want to or to clean the walls.

Who gives a crap, the bamboo one. Because large quantities of tp just turn up on the doorstep periodically and I don't have to think about it.

Not sure about the bamboo one but I saw aldi selling it in Jan

My Aldi has it too. But I prefer the Confidence brand for quality. WGAC is kinda flimsy, more expensive, harder to store that quantity and, I am not a fan of it. And my Aldi is so conveniently located that I don't need to buy in bulk. Though I did enjoy my sister's family xmas present just before covid, which was a Christmas themed WGAC toilet roll. Nearly as much fun as the photocopier paper reams with the covering paper printed with a gold mitre for the Pope's last visit to Melbourne. I nicked one of those from work for a souvenir.
