I've seen this posted as a deal. Done the math, this is not a deal when comparing to other brands.
comes to $0.083 per meter (for S&S) which is a great price for this particular branded item, although not so much for paper towel in general.
For reference, ALDI's Confidence 3ply which is great quality = $0.074 per meter, all day, everyday. (which translates to $11.99 for equal volume and subjectively equivalent or better quality)

    if it's not a deal then why do you post it?

      of course if you only buy VIVA, then yes its a good deal. just not the best considering bang for buck.

    • BargainsGrabber on 04/08/2024 - 16:28

      People post it as a deal because of its brand, and the fact it’s select a size if you don’t want to use the whole sheet (I prefer that Viva has this feature as I’m currently using Handee and feels like I’m using more rolls)

      And yes of course there are cheaper alternatives like Aldi that you mentioned but other factors come into play like is it absorbent etc

        indeed, if it help reduce unnecessary wastage, it could be economically viable, but regarding quality, I cannot fault the aldi brand, it has been fantastic. It wasnt till I started using other brand did i realise how good it is.

      • I Smell Pennies on 04/08/2024 - 16:34

        I’m currently using Handee and feels like I’m using more rolls

        Quit complaining, ours was only $1.92 for 12 rolls ;)

        • BargainsGrabber on 04/08/2024 - 16:36

          I’ve already gone through those 12 rolls in less than 2 months - for a single dude staying in the house 😅

    VIVA has best texture and doesnt disintegrate after 10 seconds in water like the rest. Best paper towel and worth the little premium.

    Cheers, got one. Wife prefers the select-a-size and cheaper than the last time I got it. Happy wife, happy life.

      The real savings are realised after-the-fact

  • charmandad on 04/08/2024 - 16:33

    Are these the same length as the regular ones?

  • Neil74 on 04/08/2024 - 16:37

    These are half the size of regular sheets, so I find they last so much longer. A full size square sheet isn't always necessary. Currently a four pack is on special at Cole's for $5.

    Looks back in stock.

    For folks into select-a-size, have you tried using regular paper towel and just tearing a strip off lengthwise if you need less than a square? Works for me

    • bargainshooter on 05/08/2024 - 13:12

      Yes but it's a lot easier with smaller sized perforations and you don't accidentally tear it into strange shapes. Also encourages others in the house to use less.

  • McFly on 04/08/2024 - 20:35

    Handee > Viva. Fight me.

    • Captain Cheapskate on 05/08/2024 - 14:20

        Problem is it sounds like an incontinence product, although that would certainly be good for absorbency!

    how does this compare to
    costco kirkland rolls? my go to

    • Captain Cheapskate on 04/08/2024 - 22:12

      if you could tell us the price, sheet size, sheet count, and roll quantity of the Costco brand, it would be greatly appreciated. 😊

      • Owgasm on 03/09/2024 - 09:19

        $49.99

        12 rolls.
        160 sheets per roll.
        27.9cm x 17.7cm.

        I think they’ve got the “half sheet cut” too.
        From what I recall the rolls were a bit taller than standard

        Gonna have to try the Aldi ones, can’t seem to find anything on sale at the moment.

  • Owgasm on 03/09/2024 - 15:54

    I’m at Aldi now, I assume the double length extra thick at $5.29 is the way to go?
