In reply to Rosemarie Lauria.

We here in this small desert town buy the one ply due to aging plumbing, finances and preferences. Scott does not super bleach their paper (ever have a skin reaction "down there" due to the chemicals used to process some of these papers?) My town has old homes with ancient plumbing lines, including sewer. Thicker paper dissolves slowly plus gets hung up in the pipes, clogging home and city sewer lines. 3-ply paper is way too pricey when a family of 4+ is under one's roof (unless money is not a problem.) And lets not get started about that toilet paper lint left behind on those pricier, fluffier brands :) As for Scott getting thinner and thinner:yes, those of us who use it in this area have noticed a while back that it was. Right now the dollar store brand (won't say which) is working out better than Scott so lots of us here are using that. Does what we need it to as far as no plumbing issues and does the "job" we need it to. Plus it is affordable.
