Puffs Ultra Soft Facial Tissues, 6 Cube Boxes, 72 Facial Tissues Per Box

We buy lots of store brand items from the various stores where we shop. Many times the store brands are indistinguishable from the name brands in both appearance and function. But there are a few name brand items for which we have not found an equal substitute. Puffs tissues are one of those items. As you can see from the pic, we buy both the standard rectangular box and the cubes. We buy the bigger boxes to go in places where they fit conveniently. For one thing, they are more economical that way. But for another, unless you put them in a tissue holder of some sort, the cubes tend to lift up off of their resting place when you go to snatch one out of an almost empty box. So when we can, we use the bigger, heavier, more economical version. But there are places where you sometimes need a tissue and there is not a good place for a full size box. That is where we put our cubes. As it empties you have to start holding onto the box to get one out, but it would be the same with another brand. When we can, we put the cubes in a dispenser that holds them in place. We buy the Puffs without lotion. I have used the lotion ones a time or two when I had a cold. They worked great for that because the lotion was soothing on my red nose. But for everyday use we prefer the plain. I shouldn’t but I sometimes use them on my glasses, and the lotion smears them. Also, dabbing my eyes, the lotion sometimes gets into my tear film and makes my vision temporarily blurry. So we generally prefer the plain ones. And although it is a small thing, my wife says she thinks the Puff brand has nicer looking boxes than the others. So, in summary, we experiment, and will continue to try different store brands of different items. But Puffs are the tissues we will be using.
