Hmm...that's really interesting that kleenex and toilet paper has not gone on to private label brands like diapers have. I will say that we're using private label toilet paper from Sam's that's actually pretty good, but when it comes to blowing your nose when you have a cold, nothing beats the name brand (Kleenex or Puffs) tissues with lotion. :D Of course, I'm starting to use half paper/half cloth around here, so we are buying less TP and Tissues these last several months....

Yup-- I rarely compromise on my paper products. My parents had private label TP when I was there last weekend-- their particular brand was yuck. Then again, I'll admit I'm spoiled working where I work-- good stuff in all the bathrooms, so I rarely ever use cheaper TP.

I've gone through a half a box of tissue today (rotten cold) and wish I'd bought the lotion version... You reminded me :) Guess what DH will be picking up when he goes out shopping tonight?!

See, and I've actually started buying the Wegmans tissues with lotion rather than Kleenex, just because they're a goodly amount cheaper and just as nice. However, if I didn't have access to Wegmans, I probably would be back to Kleenex since I haven't been impressed by any other generic tissue brand.
