Just picked up an un-opened box containing 7 rolls of GB 200.
   I just now opened it and guess what--- there were only 4 rolls in it. And not large enough to contain 7 rolls. Darn that brought the price up to almost 25 cents a roll--- bummer :rolleyes:[

I wonder if this is a case of creative marketing. [Read: "lying"!]  The toilet paper I buy is clearly marked as containing "16" rolls, but -- the plastic wrap being see-through -- you can also see there are only 8 inside.  Their rationale, when you read the fine print is that their eight rolls are equal to others' sixteen rolls. Ha!  Maybe Kodak wanted you to think 4 rolls of 36 equals 7 of 24?  grrr.
