Toilet Paper Roll Size Comparisons - Charmin

Do you know how many regular rolls are in a giant roll of Charmin toilet paper? Which is a better buy, 8 giant rolls or 12 mega rolls?  

No, I'm not trying to get you in back-to-school mode with a stolen word problem from a standardized test.  Those are actual questions from my brain. (Given my post, with pic, about toilet paper day, this should not surprise anyone.)

As a recent convert to moderate couponing, I need a reference source for comparing toilet paper roll sizes so I can decipher a TP deal. I didn't find a chart I liked, so I'll make my own based on toilet paper roll size information found at a Proctor & Gamble forum.*

Ready to for a life-changing read? Here ya go. 

Size comparisons for Charmin toilet paper rolls: 

Charmin regular roll = 88 sheets

Charmin large roll = 132 sheets = 1.5 regular rolls

Charmin double roll = 176 sheets = 2 regular rolls

Charmin giant roll = 220 sheets = 2.5 regular rolls

Charmin mega roll = 352 sheets = 4 regular rolls (My favorite.)

(Why do they need the large and giant rolls? They could save some money and confusion by omitting them.)

If you were searching for answers to these mind-numbing questions, I hope this post was helpful 

Now I have a place to find the information and served mankind at the same time. All in day's work.

(This is how I break my blogging drought? With toilet paper? Sigh.)

I’m so sorry for any confusion. Thanks for bringing to our attention that the description didn’t match the product picture. It is being corrected right away. During July we did change the “Big Roll” to a “Double Roll”, and discontinued our Triple Roll. Here are the sheet counts:
Regular Roll = 88 sheets
Large Roll = 132 sheets
Double Roll = 176 sheets
Giant Roll = 220 sheets
Mega Roll = 352 sheets
No need to worry about the Mega Rolls (my personal preference) fitting your holder. Charmin has a Roll Fit Guarantee, and you can find out more information about it toll free at 1-866-381-5328. I hope this helps!

This post cracks me up. I buy Charmin Basic. HEb always has coupons for it. No idea how many sheets. I hate those humongous rolls. They don't fit on the holder. We just got a holder after living in our house for nearly 11 years. hahaha!
