Anyone Here Use Costco Kirkland Brand Toilet Paper?

I've bought Charmin at Costco for 20 years.
I found an old roll back of the shelf, picked it up and a new roll in the other hand, old roll weighed way more.
New and improved means pay more to get less.
I routinely wipe up some dust under the spool.

We changed from Kirkland Signature to Kirkland Ultra Soft. Same price per package just as nice as Charmin and less expensive per wipe.

Link Ultra Soft

In addition to the dry TP, we use Kirkland Flushable Wipes, they are great at cleaning up, followed by Paper wipes you will use less toilet paper and have a cleaner result.

Link Wipes

Don't think using dry paper alone can gets ones derriere clean.

Go pick up a hand full of mud, then clean your hands with just dry paper towels and see what's left.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

The one time we got "cheap" TP our daughter expressed concerns along the lines of "are we poor now?".

Apparently that pushed back to a Charmin-only house. 20 years ago!!!

For many things, Costco is better except bath tissue. Members Mark over at Sam's Club is superior or so says the Mrs. That my friends is how I explain why we have two warehouse club memberships...

I like Charmin myself, but Mrs.BurtonRW doesn’t like the price, so Scott it is.

Not sure how we’re saving using a fistful of thin single-ply to do the job of a couple squares of the good stuff, but there you have it. And at least I don’t have to worry about paper clogging up the tubes.

Not Costco members, so I can’t comment on Kirkland, but it’s probably similar to Berkeley & Jensen (BJs), which I can get, but also haven’t tried.

I predict that there will be many suggestions and statements about the law made here, and some of them will be spectacularly wrong. - jhe888

I've used the Kirkland TP for decades and it's always been fine. Lately though I've noticed that it seems more prone to tearing, and I don't mean at the perforations. So the last time I restocked I bought the Charmin instead. I'll give it a try when my current supply of Kirkland runs out.

I used it a while ago. I've seen it mentioned that it's not septic safe. I don't have septic, but I like the Charmin from Costco much better and buy that when they have it $5 off.

My wife got a big pack of the Scott 1000 (now 1100) TP at Costco instead of the Kirkland this past week and now all I hear is complaints from her about the "prison toilet paper" and how awful it is...LOL

So now we have to find something else besides those two

Charmin over Kirkland here. But for paper towels we prefer the Kirkland over bounty.
