I will wholeheartedly agree with the previous statement that Viva is the Rolls Royce of paper towels. I got a bunch of rolls on a good sale at Walmart about 5-6 months ago. I think I am only on my 3rd roll. Why? Because they are so nice I don't want to use them, lol.

I agree as well. Viva Papertowels are AWESOME. We buy the cheap ones for small messes and outdoor things, but Viva is our favorite! At our Walmart they were 2/$2.00...a week later I went in to get some with my coupons and they increased their price. They are $1.14 per roll now. UGH! If you try emailing the company, they'll send you some decent coupons...$1.00 off of one. They are perfect for small children too! Very soft, like Kleenex. (made by same company) Viva is the way to go!!

Forgot to say, I think CVS is having an Extra Bucks deal for Viva within the next few weeks. May be a better price...???

The Rols Royce of paper towels, lol - My grandmother swears by these. She discovered these about 15 years ago and has always had them since. She would wash them out and let them dry and use them again, lol! Some of them have the small section perforations others are just regular size. Bounty basic is crappy - both for the paper towels and the TP.

The .99 Gerber BPA-free bottles have a home-mailer TQ that goes with them. ($1/2 TQ)

So how is that $75 vaccum with the dust wand accessory and hand held brush tool? Those seem like worthwhile accessories. Currently, I have a bagless handheld dirt devil that is USELESS as far as the brush attachment goes. I need something that works. And does that dustwand actually spin the dust out or it just suck it off? Weird post, I know... sorry, but please someone - let me know! Thanks!

5.69 * 2 = $11.38
- $2.25/2 Target Q (2/8 insert)
- .25 Bounty (2/8 P&G insert)
- .25 Bounty (2/8 P&G insert)

= $8.63 OOP for 16 rolls, or about .54 a piece.

there are also $1 on 6 rolls manuf. coupons out there too!

It is a P.O.S.

The "telescoping, self-cleaning dustwand" is simply a duster..you do it by hand, then stick it back in the tube, flip a switch and the vacuum sucks the dust off it...VERY VERY misleading I hate mine and wish I had never wasted the $$ :sad: It is wide and doesn't fit under legs of chairs, and is tall so doesn't fit under the edge of furniture.
