    Leave it to me to comment about tp! But I use Marcal. Talk about going green and saving money, it is usually the cheapest or near cheapest, and has always been 100% recycled paper (I think it is like 30 or 40% post consumer). Additionally, those 1000 sheet rolls last forever. Cheap and green.

  1. Hey! I buy Seventh Generation stuff all the time… TP, cleaners, whatever they have available in my area. Their toilet bowl cleaner is great:) I have their laundry detergent too. It’s a no-brainer. I think I’ve been using them for about four years now. I’d never think twice about buying them – if it’s there, I’ll get it (or a similar eco-friendly brand).

    I agree MoneyEnergy. I have used their stuff and they have some great products. When it comes to household cleaners, I like to make my own just to save some money any they are just as effective 🙂

    Thank you for this information. I will try one of these products and will try to get others to do the same. It’s true: you only use toilet paper once and there are some toilet papers out there that are harder than this could possibly be. =)

  2. I never knew about it. Probably this is the time to start buying seventh generations stuffs. Let me see how it works for me.

  3. I have got to tell you that I do well on this one. For a living I make fortune cookies and at my facility all we use is the recycled TP. What makes it nice is that alot of the wholesale stores carry it and it’s not very expensive!

    I buy recycled TP if there is some crazy sale on it, but it is NOT cheap. It is almost TWICE as expensive as the bargain brands of non-recycled paper where I shop. The economics of this have to change. It is cheaper to recycle paper than to cut trees, so what gives with the price? Its either the manufacturers or retailers trying to gouge folks who care about the environment. Sickening. Perhaps a carbon tax like tariff on disposable paper products made without recycled paper is in order.

      You’re absolutely right. I lived in Australia for almost a year and a half and there, the recycled toilet paper was half the price of all the fancy stuff. Only the super cheap, one-ply, store brand was cheaper. And it went on sale all the time so we could stock up for .15-.20 a roll!

    You make a good point Gary. Sometimes recycled TP can be more expensive that traditional brands and can really make it difficult to purchase. I think it’s more retailers trying to make a quick buck off of people’s effort to go more green. There is a big reason that most businesses use recycled toilet paper and it’s not because they want to be more “green”. You could try checking online stores to find bulk amounts of recycled toilet paper or keep any eye out for sales in your local stores.

  4. we are interested to import Toilet Tissue paper on bulk basis and will like you to send your offer and quotations by email to enable us proceed with you accordingly.
