You can vote with your dollars just like the Koch Brothers do.

Quilted Northern and Angelsoft are KB brands.

TU, TV on the TP info. Will stock up if my costco carries Ultra Strong.

P.S.: You'll like your new bidet. The TP is just to dry off once you switch. So much cleaner. Embrace your bidet-wokeness.

You don't clean your hands by rubbing a dry paper towel around and call it done, right?

ProTip: After you get used to using the bidet, you can still smear it around if you are feeling nostalgic.

Helping the deal-hunting community is simply a hobby. I don't get paid for any of it. I am, however, rolling in reputation points!

I know this is off topic, but I do want to address it and be transparent about it. It is public knowledge that I worked for Slickdeals as a Deal Editor a few years ago. Veterans of Slickdeals may recall a member named Selma, who the community was confused about: People wondered if she was a bot, if she was a human who worked for Slickdeals, or she was just an alter ego of a Slickdeals employee. I don't want people to think the same of me and I'd rather be an open book about it as much as I can, as long as I still have some real-life privacy.

Anyone knows about how Costco "limit" works? Let say this item limit 2, Can I just buy 2, walk out and walk back in with 2 more? How about using the additional card for 2 more?

In general, the limit applies to each shopping trip. You shouldn't have an issue purchasing the limit of 2, loading the 2 items into your vehicle, then returning immediately to buy another limit of 2.

If your Costco account has 2 card members, you each can buy the limit of 2 at the checkout line - separated by one transaction, of course.

There are some products that have strict limits, and for those the cashier may pull up your purchase history, but that rarely ever happens.

I hope this helps,

Price Analysis Bottom Line
  • The B&M price is $0.00245 per sheet, which is lower than my personal purchase point of $0.00253 per sheet. This is the lowest price for Charmin Ultra Strong at Costco I have seen.
  • The online price is $0.00411 per sheet, which is not a good deal whatsoever.
Quick Price References
  • Costco Wholesale's previous sale price on Charmin toilet paper is $0.00253 per sheet, which serves as the basis of my purchase point. Because this sale price is lower than it was previously, I may adjust my personal purchase point in the future.
  • Previously, Costco's regular price for a package of 30 rolls with 231 sheets per roll is $21.99, and its previous sale price is $17.59 after $4.40 off.
  • Do note that the Charmin toilet paper sold at Costco is slightly wider than the ones sold elsewhere.
Detailed Price Tracking
  • This spreadsheet of mine provides price tracking information, history, and other details. The highlighted blue row is the product in this particular deal.
General Price Analysis Notes
  • For toilet paper price calculations, I do not factor in sheet widths and square footage.
  • I am not comparing apples to apples, so to speak, and this brand may usually have a higher price than some other brands. Of course, there may be other, more personalized factors to consider, including warehouse club memberships; shipping fees; product quantities; subscription programs such as Amazon's Subscribe & Save and Target's Subscriptions; convenience of stores and locations; and availability of cashback programs.
Favorite Toilet Paper Ranking
The following may be TMI. And of course, this ranking shows my personal preference, so there's a high chance you may not agree.

Please note that there is a huge drop-off in quality between the top 6 and the bottom rest.
  1. Charmin Ultra Strong
    • everything you'd want in a toilet paper
  2. Quilted Northern Ultra Plush Three-Ply
    • OMG - three ply! it really is plush. Charmin Ultra Strong is not as soft, so some people may prefer this
  3. Prince & Spring Ultra Soft Premium (Boxed.com house brand)
    • almost as soft as Quilted Northern Ultra Plush and almost as strong as Charmin Ultra Strong
  4. Charmin Ultra Soft
    • excellent, but often the same price as Ultra Strong, which is more tear-resistant
  5. Kirkland Signature Ultra Soft
    • it's a shame this has been discontinued; note that this not the regular Kirkland type
  6. Presto! Ultra-Soft (Amazon house brand)
    • decent balance of soft and strong
  7. Presto! Ultra-Strong (Amazon house brand)
    • strong, but too rough
  8. Seventh Generation Toilet Paper
    • rough and thin; similar to Kirkland Signature 2-Ply
  9. Kirkland Signature 2-Ply
    • in every way, the most generic toilet paper
    • note: its regular price is better than virtually all toilet paper deals
  10. Scott Extra Soft
    • prone to breakage; this is the only one-ply toilet paper on this list
  11. Quilted Northern Ultra Soft & Strong
    • despite its name, it isn't strong, but it is soft
  12. Angel Soft
    • not worth writing to angels about
  13. Cottonelle Ultra ComfortCare
    • this toilet paper is annoying; it seems okay until you notice the lint particles
I hope this helps,
Tofu Vic
Thanks for the very detailed info

[QUOTE=TofuVic;118654559]Price Analysis Bottom Line
[LIST][*][SIZE=2]The B&M price is $0.00245 per sheet, which is lower than my personal purchase point of $0.00253 per sheet. This is the lowest price for Charmin Ultra Strong at Costco I have seen.

Target is having a better TP deal, which is even better if you have a Target giftcard that you bought for 10% off back in Nov/Dec. On top of that, there is free shipping.

18 mega plus rolls of Charmin Ultra Strong TP ($19.39)

$19.39 X 3 = $58.17

$58.17 - $15 (mobile coupon for texting "clean" to TARGET) =$43.17

$43.17 / (3 packs X 18 mega rolls plus X 352 sheets) = 0.00227 per sheet.


If you have a Target giftcard that you bought for 10% off last Nov/Dec, then this deal becomes 0.00204 per sheet


Shipping is free and there is no need to wait in long Costco lines.

GE is selling it for $25.29 in my area. Scammers increased the price most probably
