Advantages: Ermmmmmmmmm.... cheap (but not cheerul)

Disadvantages: A very sore nose

These tissues are presented in a cardboard box in the usual smart price white and green colours. Each box contains 150 white sheets of 210mm x200mm 2-ply tissues. The box is rectangular and there is an oval cut out at the top for you to remove and extract individual tissues from. Details on the product are printed on the bottom of the box and include information on the Asda refund and replace policy if you are not 100% happy with the product.

I brought these tissues to keep in my classroom at school. It is cold season and there are always a number of dripping noses and sniffing kidlets in my lessons so, rather than release the kids to the toilets every few minutes, I dish out tissues constantly.

I am currently in my third week of a cold. Every time I think it's on its way out it returns with a vengance (I'm having to mouth breath as I type!) but after using these tissues constantly for the first week of my cold I won't put them anywhere near my nose now! The are horrid. After a couple of days they made my nose sore and I now pity the kidlets that I've given these tissues to in the past (although admittedly even these are better than using school toilet paper!)

I have now invested in a cube of Soft & Strong tissues and my delicate nose is feeling alot less sandpapered!

Summary: Possibly useful for removing make-up.... but I doubt it.
