I have a home with paper holders built into the walls. The smaller rolls now look way out of place, like mini rolls in fill size holders, as they are much narrower than the holders. New holders can be made smaller in width to accommodate the narrower rolls but not the built in units. Manufacturers should quit screwing the public and just make the polls the same old size and just charge accordingly. The paper tube the toilet paper is wrapped around in now 1/4″ inch smaller than the old center tube which means even less paper for your dollar. I bet most people would pay more for the original size paper that the shrunken model now being sold. Our butts, hands and fingers are not getting smaller so the paper should not be getting smaller either. Corporate management does not see the real picture all they see is how to make a profit. Reduce what they supply to you without raising the price is really raising the price as now you receive less product for the same amount of money. Unfortunately almost every product you buy today is like this as the executives have to figure out ways to continue to make profits for the stockholders. This type of practice will continue with all consumer goods until people quit buying them to the point that a company actually loses large amounts of money, then maybe something will change to the benefit of the consumer. Don’t hold your breath waiting for that to happen though.

Thank you for finally publicizing what I’ve said for years, that the Scott rolls are smaller. Not just shorter, but narrower, too. They’re still better than competitors, so I won’t be switching, but if some other company would come along and make a roll that actually lasts as week, as Scott used to do, I’ll start buying it.

ALDI’S HAS “OLD” SIZE!!!!!!!!!!! Aldi’s grocery stores has a type of toilet paper single-ply, HUGE 4.5 X 3.7 JUST LIKE PRE-2006 SCOTT TOILET PAPER!!!! The name on the front….I don’t know, but look for the big “1,000″ on the front of the package. Each 4-pack costs $2.49, while Scott costs $3.79 per 4 pack at my grocery store.
My bum loves it, and I will NEVER GO BACK TO SCOTT!!!!

I have a one handed roll holder, it is two buttons that hold the roll from the sides, no thingy roller that removes. THATS the big f’n deal. And the cheaper brands make a HUGE cardboard roll thats super heavy so it feels heavy and beefy. Scott will no longer fit in my holder. It is not the type of holder you have.I am pissed, they should not cut one inch off the end. It is only to give Scott more money. I can remember tp being three for a buck.
Oh well, dollar store paper here I come. Scott lost me.
