| 1231792 | 2011-09-17 14:10:00 | I find it really weird that tissue in large boxes come in 2 ply versions, but NOT pocket tissues... Countdown and warehouse doesn't carry any 2 ply pocket tissue for some reason. This is really weird... |

| 1231794 | 2011-09-17 23:17:00 | I know this may well be thinking out of the square ... but have you ever considered using TWO single ply tissues ... :D | SP8's (9836) | ||
| 1231795 | 2011-09-18 00:27:00 | Maybe they just dont want to carry a box around with them all the time??????? Have you tried any other supermarkets or even the cheap $2.00 shop...... A work mate brings in the small packets sometimes, if i remeber i will ask her where she gets them??????? beetle |

| 1231798 | 2011-09-18 05:56:00 | I used to test tissues/paper for porosity, moisture, stain, etc, from CHH NZ. Often got 4 ply, not much 2 ply for testing. I think 2 ply pocket were more premium, requiring strict manufacture hygienic type conditions. Thus perhaps more likely found in upmarket branded type suppliers/importers, e.g. gift suppliers, chemists, and similar. And I know NZ papers (from Pulp) were marketed as virgin (late 90's), but actually contained about 7 % recycled or less. The rest (larger 4 ply facials) are more likely to be generic mass produced so called virgin pulp. But there are ton's of recycled paper in NZ to get rid off... | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||

| 1231800 | 2011-09-18 10:04:00 | Kleenex do 9x pocket packs of "ultra-soft" tissues that are roughly equivalent to 2-ply. They are 21cm x 21cm, are at least as good as 2-ply, and are well worth a try. I don't know how many 9-packs come in the main package but I have found them very good. The pocket pack is resealable as well so you don't end up with a pocket full of paper mache. Normal tissues leak through even if multiple-folded, but these don't, at least they haven't in my experieince. Cheers Billy 8-{) |
