We have used Press'N Seal for years, and prefer it to regular plastic wrap.

We use Stretch Tite plastic wrap and Press 'n Seal - I like that the latter doesn't shrink in the microwave.

I've never seen that here. I'm currently using the big roll of Kirkland plastic wrap, 3000 sq. feet. I love it.

I can't get over how thin aluminum foil is these days. Alcan is just garbage; Reynolds same thing. I love the Selection brand from Sobey's/Metro/Food Basics. It's really good!

I bought a big roll of what Costco was selling 8 or 9 years ago. I finally used it up this year. I thought it was great.

We get ours now at costco...great stuff and it has the slider cutter so you can pull the wrap out over the bowl and cut it with the slider...no clinging to itself.

I haven't used anything but Kirkland/Costco Stretch-tite Plastic Food Wrap in a good number of years. I just looked and Amazon sells Stretch-tite brand, not sure where else it might be available or how the price compares to Costco. I buy it so infrequently I can't recall what I pay for it.

Another Kirkland Stretch-tite lover here! I can’t find it to order on the Costco website, but I just discovered I can buy it on Amazon. Like many others here, I haven’t used anything else for years. I also have Press ‘n Seal. My sister uses nothing else, but I don’t get it. I can never get it to stick.

I get mine at Costco also. If I could not get the Costco brand then I would go back to Saran wrap, IMO it was the best that I could get in a grocery store.

It seems the Stretch-tite is highly recommended but no one sells it around here and it's way more at Amazon than in the store. I even contacted the company to see if anyone near us sells it but no Costco, Publix or another place they said had it but there are none near us. So, I'd have to order that if I wanted that. I guess I'll probably do that after we use up this horrible Great Value stuff...HA! You should see my husband trying to use it, it's like a slapstick comedy act, I kid you NOT! HA!

I like Costco. It’s fairly heavy and I like the sliding cutter.

@arkansas girl, WMT has a fairly generous return policy. Call customer service and let them know you are unhappy.

I've been using the store brand plastic wrap from Kroger for years, not the best, but it works. I recently bought Saran Wrap and it's the worst I ever used. It won't cling to anything; not the sides of a dish, plate or even itself. It does come in a good box : sturdy, has a good cutter and even a sticky spot to hold the wrap in place.

The one good thing I can say about the NEW GV wrap is that it does stick to whatever you put it on! You may not be able to get it off, but it sticks...HAHA!

Dollar Tree sells Glad. $1 That's good enough for me.

I'm sorry to hear this, as this is the brand I've used for a long time too. I don't use much plastic wrap, though, and I guess that's fortunate.

I use Smart and Final plastic wrap. It has the slider like the Costco one.

Twenty or so years ago the news station consumer lady compared plastic wraps. Reynolds was the winner, by far. Then same as your story, Reynolds changed its product, for the worse.

Lately I've been happy with ChicWrap -- it works well, and you can buy large roll refills for the dispenser.

Kirkland here.

Has anyone tried to wrap from Gordon Food Services? I think it's called Gordon's Choice? We have one near us. The closest Costco is in PA and we never go there. I've also been reading that the stuff they sell at Sam's Club isn't very good anymore either...probably made by the same company as the GV. I will look for that ChicWrap, supposedly, a store in our town carries it...we will see. There is also a CVS house brand that says "stretch-tite" on the package, but wouldn't you know it, not a box to be found! The website says "in stock" but there is nothing on the shelf! UGH! People are saying this is a good wrap, I suspect it's made by the same company that makes the "stretch-tite" wrap.

I found it changed a few years ago. It used to stick, it's been below expectation for some time. Now it's thin besides?!! SIGH

Costco Kirkland brand has changed

I use aluminum foil or transfer stuff to glass bowls with plastic lids. I haven't bought a roll of plastic wrap/cling film in decades.

Trying to move away from everything plastic. I use more foil now. I used to really like Reynolds, but haven't seen it for years now.

I rarely use plastic wrap. If I'm putting leftovers in the refrigerator, it's usually just until the next day. So, I use a bowl over a plate, or a saucer over a bowl, something like that. That or a baggie. If it's for longer storage I'll use a freezer bag, a vacuum bag, or sometimes freezer bags (or even regular baggies) inside a vacuum bag.

Plastic wrap has it's uses though.

Since I haven't bought plastic wrap in a long time I don't know what's a good price. But here's Premium(?) Saran Wrap. Buy twelve rolls and it's about $2.00/roll. Of course it might not be any better, if as good, as what you have now. So twelve rolls is a lot just to find out it's no better. "If" I were buying it, I'd select "One-time purchase", put it in my cart, go to checkout and select "Save 5% today by subscribing", pay for it, then unsubscribe once I get it unless I really wanted to keep getting it. I do that a lot. To me, 5% is 5%.

About the only roll (kitchen) product I use is parchment paper, which I discovered the usefulness of not that long ago. Saves me time scrubbing fish/whatever off whatever pan I use in the oven.

Seal Wrap Zip Safe - just discovered it and love it

Simply Done, bought at Nob Hill (Raley's,) I believe. I prefer the thin stuff since I think plastic is going to kill us all :) but had to buy this when my usual Glad wasn't available. I must say, this stuff is easy to use.

Ont_Gal. The Kirkland roll I have is about 2.5 or 3 years old. Hubby and I bought it together. What do you mean it's changed? I love their plastic wrap.

I wrap my meat in plastic wrap, then in foil to freeze.

Is this the wrap that has changed? It was my Mom’s and when she passed I took it home. Finished off the wrap I had and have been using this for about 3 years. Really like it.

Someone spoke of being unhappy when, food wrapped in sheet plastic then microwaved, the plastic didn't act as it used to.

I hardly ever microwave food in a plastic container, especially plastic wrap, as I'm concerned that some possibly harmful chemicals from the plastic may be transferred to the food by the heating, especially the powerful heat produced by the microwave.

ole joyful

I really liked the Great Value wrap itself but the boxes fall apart and the cutter strip comes off. Years ago I vowed never to buy Saran Wrap again after it wouldn’t cut. Last week I splurged on a refillable plastic wrap holder ( I chose a cute veggie pattern) with great ratings on amazon. It comes with 250 ft of chic wrap. Reviewers say you can refill it with any wrap. It’s now doubled in price from last week.

For quite a while I've used Kroger's brand of plastic wrap and WM's foil (thicker than other current brands), but the last few times I looked at Kroger they had none in stock (maybe due to covid supply problems), had to buy Glad wrap and hated every inch of that stuff. So I got a box of WM's plastic wrap, it's just terrible, the top of the box split in half and the wrap is ridiculous to use.

Kathyg, yes, the picture you have is what the old box looked like. It has changed now. The box is flimsy, the wrap is as thin is humanly possible and still be a sheet of plastic, it's so fly away, you can hardly handle it without it just flying around and getting stuck on itself. The GV used to come in a regular and a "professional strength", it is like they just put the regular one in the professional strength box and thought no one would notice...HA!

The Stretch Tite box is thick and strong and stays that way to the end of the roll. I've been using Stretch Tite for many years and so far the product hasn't changed. I buy the 250 sq ft role at my local Wegman's or online from Walmart. or Amazon. Sometimes I see the Kirkland version at Costco but it's a larger role. Years ago Stretch Tite didn't come with the sliding cutter piece so I bought 2 of the decorative dispensers from Chic Wrap and now I just place the Stretch Tite roll inside them. The little rubber feet on the bottom of the Chic Wrap box helps is stay in place on the counter. I think the Chic Wrap and the Stretch Tite plastic wraps are nearly identical.

I go to the dollar store and buy the Betty Crocker plastic wrap and tin foil. I gave a roll of the foil to my son and he says it's the best he's ever used.

I use GFS brand from Gordon Food Service. Works great, I like that it's 18" wide so to can go over pretty much anything I need it to. At a 2000' roll, it has so far lasted me for years, and will likely last a while more.

I don't use a lot of plastic wrap, but it is right handy for some things.

Debby, I have an electric coil stove, and the Betty Crocker foil burner liners are the best. They used to be Titan, and now they're Betty Crocker. I'll have to try the foil, thanks for the tip. I don't know if I've seen it, but I'll look. I buy that brand of kitchen utensils that Dollarama sells.

ETA: I meant to say that I buy Betty Crocker kitchen utensils at Dollarama

beesneeds, I was wondering about the GFS Gordon's Choice, I believe is the name on the box. I have a GFS store here. I don't mind having a large box if it's a decent product. I once had the big box of the Sam's Club one but then discovered the GV one and then just used that until now.

Be careful about using foil on acidic foods like tomato sauce...it can eat at the aluminum and get it into your food. Whenever we eat out and get food in those aluminum containers, I switch it right away to plastic.

Debby, which dollar store ? Jasdip, Dollar Tree carries a lot of Betty Crocker kitchen utensils . The kitchen scissors are awesome.

Will have to stop in GFS next month when I'm downstate.

Arkansas girl. thanks for the heads up!

Woodrose, I love the Dollarama for Betty Crocker kitchen stuff. They've got tons. I use Dollar Tree very little their stuff is pretty awful, but I'll take a look there as well. The kitchen scissors are good?? I'm always looking for good scissors.

Sigh, we don't have Dollarama either. Seems we don't have any of the good stores. We only have Dollar Tree, it's OK for a few things but often times it's less than a dollar at Walmart. You do have to be careful but it's convenient.

The reason you can not find the same things at Dollar Tree stores is that they are franchises. Each one is independently owned and operated and the owner select what is being sold.

Whoo Whoo I'm back! Well, as seagrass BTW. I prefer GladWrap.

Nope, you're not Seagrass here yet!

I avoid using it. I have some floppy silicone covers which can go on bowls, or use containers with lids. Sometimes I use waxed paper or foil as needed. When I did use it, I liked Costco's with the zipper slider.

Someone mentioned takeout bowls from restaurants for their leftovers. I always take my own glass bowls/lids when we eat out. We rarely DO eat out, though. The portions are just too huge, plus Covid.

Woodrose I went to Dollar Tree yesterday and picked up some foil and some white Betty Crocker scissors on your recommendation. I haven't tried either yet.

How many scissors does one need I wonder? But for a buck and a quarter, wth. LOL

What a great idea, Hot Rod. I just hate all the plastic waste that is incurred when we pick up food. (No restaurants for us until vaccines.)
