Remember: WE are testing WIPING, not flushing. DO NOT FLUSH THESE THINGS. Throw them away in a trash can or trash bag. If you have a pet, you will want to use a covered metal can in a cupboard. If you have a toddler...best of luck.
AND: WASH YOUR DAMN HANDS.
And now for our 4th Contestant
Used Grocery Bags...the paper ones
PREP:
The usual rubbing around to bring the nap up and make it softer. It helps if it's been used a few times so it's already softening up. ALSO...you won't need an entire full size grocery sack for each "go" unless you are having some sort of intestinal drama.
SCRATCH FACTOR: 4/5
With proper prep, it's quite good really! I mean, it's not the lotion filled pillow like top of the line nonsense, but I haven't used that in so long I don't even REMEMBER it.
EASE OF USE: 4/5
Easy prep if you have slightly worn out bags around. Ripping off the right amount is not a problem.
PAPER-CUT SAFETY: 4/5
Unless you leave the handles on or forget to soften up the top edge, it will be hard to do yourself any damage with this option.
ABSORBENCY: 4/5
GO SLOW. It IS absorbent, but it is not the "quicker picker upper".
The strength factor is excellent. There will be no surprise finger poke-through with paper grocery bags.
CLEANSING POWER: 5/5
Excellent! I mean, I use them...DIFFERENT ONES...as scrubbers for cast iron pans so I knew they could take warm grease and crusties out, now I know more things they can take out.
AVAILABILITY: 4/5
Just say "paper please!" and there you are.
Bold Name of Tested Product COMPOSITE SCORE: 25/30
So, more suggestions please.
Or perhaps someone disagrees with my assessment?
