Why would anybody pay more for Andrex when Nicky is better quality and cheaper?

Not sure I can wipe my derriere on something named after my first girlfriend. Then again......

Was two for £7 until quite recently at Farm Foods. Also the sheet count went down last year from 180/roll to 170/roll, so a little shrinkflation too. But yes, in spite of the effective price rises this is definitely still the best value, good quality loo roll around, and can be a little cheaper if you can take advantage of other FF deals and use their £2.50 off £25 vouchers.

I love their kitchen roll that Farmfoods does. It has a lovely image of lemons and foiliage on it, slightly kitsch.

I don't like this stuff, it's rough and has less sheets than most bog roll. the Robin reliant of bog paper. cold

I'll stick with Andrex. Tried Nicky once and it's definitely not as good. I can do an adequate clean up job with a single sheet of Andrex. With Nicky it was regularly taking a second sheet to get a decent result.

Are you talking about the "Elite" variety or standard?
Elite (this deal) is softer and 3 ply

You should have around when schools and government offices used to use the tracing paper type toilet paper. Now that was sandpaper. Also good for tracing paper for school homework.
You youngsters have it cushy and may I softer nowdays.

Best loo rolls and cheaper than andrex

As a skint person who also sufferer with Crohn's, I have become a bit of a budget loo roll connoisseur; I totally recommend these, they're absolutely the best budget loo rolls, there's nothing in this price bracket to match them. Nicky Elite all the way. :smiley:

I used to get them from Home Bargains, only recently realised that Farmfoods also sell them (much nearer to us!)

Buy these from home bargains always at £3.99. A saving of 30p...? My bum will be pleased!

Prompted by the post I walked up to my local Farmfoods this morning just 300 metres away and bought a couple of packs.
Verdict
worth the money and actually rather good.
So :stuck_out_tongue: from me

They quite often have these on two packs for £7 also they are an absolute must for value and quality

What's Monopoly got to do with this? Anyway sell you Pall Mall for £350.

Everyone is brabbling about quality while the most important factor apart from price should be collecting properties. Anyone willing to share these?

I used Nicky for years but my toilet was slowly but surely blocking up more regularly. I mentioned it to my mum and she said it was due to Nicky and they had stopped using it due to the same problem.

I changed back around 6 months ago and no more blocked toilets :smiley:

I think due to it being quilted it doesn't break down too quickly.

Andrex is 2 ply and 221 sheets a roll. But your fingers are 50% more likely to go through

I used to be a fan of Nicky however I recommend Plush much better and without the scent which is not to everyone's liking particularly the females in our house. This is £2.49 for 12 rolls made specifically for Home Bargains. Try and I'm sure you'll agree.

Tried this stuff as so many people rated it on here,but this stuff is crap,you only have to sniff my finger as proof

Indeed,I've been using Nicky for years and a while ago we tried some Andrex that was on offer,no comparison,the Nicky is far superior.

Holte_ender to djh1975

I used to think the same. I have found that andrex is far better quality and actually lasts longer. It's also wound tighter on the roll whereas nicky I found was quite loose and gave the mere impression that it had the same number or more sheets than andrex. In short I found it to be a false economy.
I live with a family of 4. Used to get through at least a roll of nicky a day. Andrex rolls last at least a half day more sometimes a whole day. Plus it is actually stronger.

Always £3.99 in home bargains so not huge saving. I was converted a few years back after using a well known brand. I'm fussy about what I use on my btm and these are great.

happy2014

Have been using these for years. As good as well known branded rolls.
They are 3 ply and fragrances.
Don't dither.

Definitely the paper of choice in our house, no poke through, good grip and great results!
