Default clogged toilet

Go to the hardware and purchase a Ridgid closet auger. Ask in the plumbing
section. Also ask the clerk for instructions how to use it. It isn't
intutitive, but once you've used one, it's easy enough.

The $8 one is nearly useless.

While the snake is in the bowl, flush once or twice to rinse the snake.

My toilet isn't flushing properly. When water from tank enters bowl it rises
to a few inches from top. Over the
course of the next hour or so it slowly drains so that there
is only about 2 or 3 inches at the very bottom of the bowl.Any
recommendations?

Thanks.
