Awesome toilet paper

Creating an impact with the use of toilet paper? Yes, it’s possible! Our lovely guests are proud users of The Good Roll; by every toilet visit, they are making the world a better place. This eco-sexy toilet paper is 100% tree-friendly and The Good Roll invests half of their net profit in building toilets in third world countries!
