      Cheaper than this popular deal from yesterday which was 24.7c/100 sheets. And they're not made from recycled paper nor do they donate profits.

        22.2c/100 sheets, if you were doing it correctly.

          Oh, via sub and save. Fair enough. Too bad that deal expired.

      Just the newest faction on OB after iOS/Android, WD/Seagate, Aldi/Costco. We can now enjoy Quilton vs WGAC.

    • +3

      Super expensive if you ask me

      You can buy a 24 pk of high quality 3 ply toilet paper at Aldi for around $9.

      hence for the same money ($41.60) you get around 100 rolls from Aldi.

      And not much more in the big supermarkets (around $12 for 24)

      Sorry but a big THUMBS DOWN from me.

      • How many sheets per roll?

      • My Aldi has no stock

      • crazy people upvote deals like this on a bargain website tbh

      Yep, Made in China so they can get the packaging (paper not plastic) they want, use recycled paper tomake the TP and extra long roles. They try their best to ensure the factory workers are looked after. Shipping is also carbon neutral.

        It is a very good point. However, the containers are already coming I guess. Why not fill them with a very light sustainable product? I would call it the lesser evil…

            @ltwo: Have a look at the world in 2022 and see what the CCP has done/is doing.

            There is a slowly growing movement to not buy Chinese-made products - something I'm making a big effort to be part of.

          • +10

            @ltwo: Because Australia is perfectly capable of making TP, Sorbent is made in Melb, and Kleenex is made in South Aus.
            Why support overseas products if we can make it here?

          I got no problems with made in china and will happily buy made in china products, But does seem rather silly and non environmentally friendly to import toilet paper, it would seem to significantly offset the savings made by recycling.

              @sween64: Yeah, it's good that they've outlined their reasons.
              But I dislike that they reference US data on Tissue sourcing.
              Australian Tissue is from Plantation timber, so flat out wrong through that section and borderline intentionally misleading IMHO.

              • +3

                @ESEMCE: Recycled is still better than plantation timber.

            • +1

              @sween64: yes I did, nothing in their contradicts what I said. We use plantation timber here not native and buying carbon offsets does not equal environmentally friendly in my book.

              • @gromit:

                One thing that’s important to know about making toilet paper is that the production process and raw material sourcing, rather than the transport process, makes up the vast majority of the carbon footprint. The absolute best thing you can do for the planet is to switch to recycled toilet paper. The National Resource Defense Council’s report on the damage that virgin toilet paper is having on our native forests does a great job of explaining this further.

                Is relevant though.

                • +4

                  @sween64: yes and if it were cutting down native forests to make it I would agree. That equation changes massively with plantations, yes not as good as recycled but light years ahead of native. It is the problem when you use US data to try and represent us.

                  • @gromit:

                    if it were cutting down native forests to make it I would agree. That equation changes massively with plantations

                    While I do understand and agree, the land under the current plantations was once a native forest too…

                    Surely recycled paper is the way to go, leaving more timber for making furniture or other durable goods. Especially toilet paper, it's not like it's holding state secrets or works of art in an archive for decades.

                    (I buy 100% recycled Aus-made TP, but I'm looking into WGAC…)

                    I agree with you about carbon offsets not being great either but, ceteris paribus, I'd choose the company that offsets their emissions any day over the company that doesn't.

                  But plantation timber, which is what Australia uses means that trees are planted with the intention of being cut down.
                  We are not cutting down our native forest.

                  Those plantation trees are absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere while they are growing and the average Pine tree absorbs about 10 kilograms of CO2 per year.

                  Using this toilet paper also means a delivery truck will make a trip just for you.
                  That's emitting CO2 that wouldn't happen if you went to the supermarket and got toilet paper as part of your grocery shop.

              @GuestShopper: His point is the containers AREN'T just coming anyway, containers only come if they have been ordered or are filled for a delivery, ships don't cart empty containers around hoping to fill them up. Filling a container means a container that otherwise wood NOT have been transported, is transported.

        I would rather give people in Australia jobs than people in China.

        My only grip with China is the government there … definitely not the people, as many of them also suffer at the hands of the Chinese government, even the wealthy like Jack Mao have suffered ..And of the small Chinese businesses I have dealt with via ebay and Alliexpress I have found they are often better to deal with than some of the Australian ebay sellers I have had the misfortune to deal with. …

        Only ones I don't like are the fake "Australian" ebay sellers who are really based in China. Seems to be a rising number of them recently.

      • You can get paper packaging without importing. You can also get recycled paper without importing. You can easily get extra long rolls without importing. Thus is some of the cheapest paper available retailed as an environmental exercise. It is brilliant marketing and I wish I'd thought of it.

              • @oldrocker: Instead of throwing dismissive remarks at this guy, might be worthwhile taking a crash course in macroeconomics 101 and the concept of comparative and absolute advantage. International trade does in fact increase standard of living. The logic of moving manufacturing to countries with cheaper labour, is that businesses in Australia that sell these goods at cheaper prices to the public, remain open. Imagine a scenario where a product is sold on the market at 4 times what it is sold for overseas because wages in Australia are 4 times what they are overseas, the natural conclusion is that people end up sourcing those products overseas rather than locally, hurting the Australian economy further.

            • +1

              @Timetraveler: Haha, I got the pun, it's just not very good or clever.

    • I think this whole movement towards not buying ‘made in China’ is a populist movement led mostly by those without a sufficient degree of understanding of economics. I’m all for pushing back on any threats to our sovereignty, China or otherwise but boycotting ‘made in China’ will mostly hurt local businesses, who realistically can’t survive without outsourcing part of their supply chain to China. Outsourcing manufacturing to China seems fine to me so long as marketing, r&d, retail, admin and other necessary functions remain in Australia. Also just because something isn’t ‘made in China’ doesn’t mean there aren’t other aspects of the supply chain going through China, especially with most multinationals having regional headquarters in China.

    • +3

      Long story short, we have to wrap our rolls in something to keep them moisture-free and hygienic. We could wrap 6 rolls together (that’s the limit), but we’d need to use a much thicker paper. The net paper used (by weight) to wrap a 6 pack in heavy duty paper vs. six individual rolls in the thin tissue paper we use is effectively the same. It’s either this or plastic — and we hate plastic.

          Modern train, 30 to 100 g

            How about we use water pollution to compare airplanes to sea freight instead and see who fares better.
