Every now and again I buy toilet paper from Tesco which is their own make. This is from the Tesco Vale range and it feels cheap and looks cheap but after all, it's just for wiping bottoms and it does a pretty decent job on the whole. Six rolls cost just under £2 and they come in a plain clear plastic pack and are white in colour. I am unsure if these rolls come in any other colours but as I prefer my toilet rolls to be white anyway, I cannot say I have gone looking for any other colours.

The rolls are a decent enough size in length and even width ways they are quite wide. They are on the rough side as you'd expect from a value range item from Tescos' but really they are not as rough as I had expected them to be. They are obviously not what I'd call a luxury toilet paper but they are absorbent and as the rolls are quite large in length, they last a long time, especially as there are only two of us in our home anyway.

The only problem with these rolls is that they are extremely difficult to get started. By this, I mean that the rolls are well gummed down when new and it can be very fiddly indeed trying to get the roll off to a good start and I usually end up with a few shredded prices before the roll actually gets underway. The perforations are fine though sometimes too many sheets come off at once so I have to be more careful when tearing off the amount I want to use.

I have also used this toilet paper for removing facial and eye make up and even for blowing my nose whenever I have run out of tissue paper. Obviously, tissue I a lot softer and kinder to the skin and I only use it in place of tissues if I am really desperate.

These are not the most luxurious toilet rolls in the world by any stretch of the imagination, but I still think they are good value for money. After all, it's only a toilet paper for goodness sake.
