Do you love your toilet paper? I do!
Here are some reasons to get your tush excited about the company Who Gives A Crap:
- 50% of Who Gives A Crap’s profits are donated to help build toilets and sanitation projects in developing countries. Great mission? Check.
- The toilet paper is made of 100% recycled paper, and the company is on a mission to eliminate all plastic from its packaging. Sustainability focus. Check!
- The rolls come wrapped in cute paper, are made of a soft 3 ply tissue, and come delivered to your door. Convenience? Check!
- You can also bet your bottom dollar that there’s a 100% money back guarantee.
Let’s get to the bottom of it: Did I like the toilet paper?
YES! Toilet paper is not that exciting, right? In the past I tried to buy the cheapest, largest package with the biggest rolls that didn’t fall apart in my hand. My objective with TP has always been to minimize roll turnover and cost. Aside from that, I didn’t give it too much thought.
All that changed when I came across Who Gives A Crap. This toilet paper is actually something to get excited about! It’s made from 100% recycled paper with no dyes or scents. I was more than happy with the tissue’s feel. It’s super soft and it’s noticeably stronger than other brands we’ve tried. It didn’t flake off fuzz like our previous brand did, and it feels really nice and smooth.
There are two main reasons I’ll be subscribing for more!
1. Cost.
I assumed Who Gives A Crap would be significantly more expensive than the store brand I’d been buying. But when I did the math, I was surprised to see that Who Gives A Crap was actually less – by a lot! You can buy a box for $30 (for 24 rolls) or $48 (for 48 rolls). I used the biggest box to compare since that’s what I’d get.
Who Gives A Crap
- 400 sheets per roll
- 48 rolls per pack
- 19,200 sheets per pack
- $48 per pack
- $2.50 per 1,000 sheets
Store Brand Mega Plus
- 326 sheets per roll
- 18 rolls per pack
- 5,868 sheets per pack
- $16.89 per pack
- $2.87 per 1,000 sheets
Not only is Who Gives A Crap less expensive (including delivery!) but you get a LOT of rolls at a time so you don’t run out as much.
2. Convenience.
You can buy one box at a time OR subscribe! There is nothing worse than realizing you’re on your last roll in the house. We have three bathrooms where I stash TP, and I would always assume one of the other two bathrooms had extra rolls if one was low. Until that one time when all three are out and you find yourself making a last minute trip to the store to stock up!! I love that the Who Gives A Crap rolls have more sheets per roll (and aren’t 10 inches thick) AND that you get 48 rolls per box that comes right to your door right before you need it. (Plus the last three rolls in the box are packaged to remind you that you need more.) I also really like that the rolls are individually wrapped in pretty paper since I usually unpack my rolls to store under the sink. This is just a lot more hygienic than rolls exposed to the elements.
The company’s mission to support proper sanitation in developing countries and their efforts toward sustainability are all gravy on the top!
Plus the “cheeky” branding is hilarious. Check out the box copy above and the roll copy below
The Bottom Line
I’m so glad to have found a brand that is cheap (in a good way), comes in a large package, feels great, and doesn’t involve hauling my two kids to the store to procure.

The beautiful AirBnb that Matt and I had the pleasure of staying at in Nashville last month had this tp in our bathroom. I thought the packaging was so cute! I will check the cost for us and may place a one time order to try it. Thanks for sharing your review!
KathEats says
Oh cool!! What a cool idea for a hospitality company to use
Kori says
I placed my order! We will be recieving 48 3-ply 400 sheet rolls for only $38, and we are in need of tp as well. Yay!
Brittney says
Very cool! I’m placing an order this morning based on your review and the information on the company’s website. Maybe it’s just me, but nothing seems to be happening when I input your discount code. Any insight on that?
KathEats says
It worked for me in another browser – in fact it was already in my cart and I didn’t have to put the code. Are you clicking through and typing in the code and nothing is happening? Or getting invalid code?
Brittney says
I’m clicking through and using the code and nothing happens to the total amount.
KathEats says
Do you see a pink ribbon at the top with “Use code “KATHEATS” at checkout to get $10 off your first purchase thanks to Kath Eats” ? And please share your browser! I’m going to report all of this to the brand, but I’m not sure what the problem is because it’s working for me so it’s hard to trouble shoot!
KathEats says
I just found out there’s a $48 minimum (the large TP box). Perhaps that’s the problem. I’m sorry for the confusion!
Brittney says
No worries, thank you for helping to troubleshoot! I guess I’ll up my order 🙂
KathEats says
🙂
Jill says
I love this brand! I also use their paper towels. They make doing the right thing easy. Thanks for featuring a great company.
KathEats says
How are the paper towels? I’m going to try them when I order more TP!
Leigh says
The code is also not working for me.
KathEats says
Please send any info I can pass on. I’m doing my best to troubleshoot, as it’s working on our side. Can you please send browser, which link, how you’re inputting it?
KathEats says
Just found out there’s a $48 minimum (the large TP box)
Emma says
This is a great idea! I am going to place an order! What is going on with the wall behind your toilet though? Does Mazen use it for target practice? LOL! That’s something my son would do too.
KathEats says
It’s just a light shadow. It’s all white in real life.
Polly says
Not sure I see how this is cheaper than store brand? The Wegmans brand that I buy is $10.99 for 20 rolls, each with 1,000 sheets per roll. So that’s half the price.
It seems like a great product, maybe if you try not to use a car for shopping, but it’s a bit inaccurate to claim that it’s necessarily cheaper than store brand toilet paper.
KathEats says
I’m sure you can find store brands that are cheaper (I didn’t compare to discount stores like Costco, for example). Also 1,000 sheets per roll is a LOT! I think that’s a 1-ply compared to 3-ply, which isn’t quite the same to compare. But my main point was it was cheaper than the store brand that I was buying and has a better company mission behind it (and less plastic!)
Karen says
Umm…no. I’m not interested in a company that thinks it’s cute to send products to my home (where I have kids) with a vulgar word pasted all over. I know to many this word is a “mild” swear word, and yes, there are worse things kids can say, but I’m teaching my kids to avoid vulgar language in their everyday interactions, because I truly believe that language is important, and the words we use are important. I’m glad they’re using recycled paper, that’s great and all, but really, the branding is not something I would expect from a mom-blogger, or anybody with civilized manners.
Brittney says
Karen, it sounds like this product isn’t for you and that’s obviously fine! However, you need not sanctimoniously criticize others for their perceived lack of manners just because they aren’t the same as yours. You do you! I am personally thrilled to have learned about this brand and can’t wait to get my order.
Karen says
You don’t think bloggers should get honest feedback about the brands they choose to partner with? Fair enough.
Tonya says
Karen, are you kidding me? Girl, bye. This isn’t for you. Move on with life.
Barbara Hutchinson says
Holy cow! I just read an article about the most earth-friendly toilet tissue and felt guilty. I just subscribed and trying the paper towels as well.
Thanks!
Shannon says
I’m curious what brand you used to compare. I did a comparison on the kind I get from our local target.
462 sheets per roll
18 rolls per pack
8,316 sheets per pack
$13.99 cost
$1.68 per 1,000 sheets?
KathEats says
Compared to these: https://www.target.com/p/premium-ultra-strong-toilet-paper-18-mega-plus-rolls-compare-to-charmin-ultra-strong-bath-tissue-up-up-153/-/A-51985526
I think there is a 1 ply kind that’s cheaper but we don’t like 1 ply 🙂
Josie says
What’s the speckles all around the tiles by your toilet? Is that an ombré pattern? I need to redo a powder room and looking for interesting ideas.
KathEats says
It’s just a shadow and grain in the pic. Bathrooms are hard to photograph. All the tiles are white.
Sarah Chait says
Nicely done post. I’m a little surprised to see that a company with a sustainability mission would choose to wrap each roll individually? I get that it’s cute and visually appealing, but seems really unnecessary and an easy way to reduce. Any thoughts on this?
KathEats says
I think the #1 reason is hygiene. The wrappers are made of 100% recycled paper and also 100% compostable.
Isabel says
Does this code have an expiration date?
KathEats says
I’m sorry for the delayed response – I was checking for you. And no expiration!
Louise A Olafsson says
Scott tissue is only 65 cents for 1000 sheet roll. They charge 12.99 for 20 rolls and say you get 20,000 sheets for that. I love the cute style of the one you are showing but my usual seems much cheaper.
KathEats says
Scott is only 1 ply though. It’s what my dad buys – too thin for me 🙂
