Serious reply:

I like Walmart's "strong and soft" generic store brand, you can buy a double-sized 9-pack for a reasonable price.

Hubby prefers what I like to call sandpaper - thin and scritchy. So I get that at Staple's, they also have their own brand, there's like 20 double-rolls for under $20 when it's on sale, and for most men - that's almost a year's worth.

I had a full new package of them plus around half a package when we moved down, so we didn't even come CLOSE to running low during the pandemic when you couldn't get any TP from any store or online anywhere at any price.

60 grit for a deep clean.
Do not flush.
Save and dry.
Sand and stain wood at the same time.
Now, that's funny.

Just walk a few steps into the bathtub/shower and do a quicky minute rinse with a small amount of soap. Way cheaper than toilet paper and you don't need to spend huge amount of money on a bidet. Bidets do break down with all their intricate working parts, and replacement is not cheap, as compared to replacing a showerhead.

That's what that bidet thingy is for!
Been cleaning my gardening work boots in that for years!

you seem to have a firm grip on the fecal matter

I stopped using it when it went over a dollar a roll.

Save money, use the back of your hand and then rinse.

Was seriously considering a bidet the last few years. Just haven't followed through and tried it yet. :shrug:

Sam's is very good. But since that's all I'd buy in bulk, it's not worth the yearly membership fee. I like Charmin now.

True story. When I worked on Saudi Arabia building military bases, the "Bedouins" were drafted from the desert to serve in the military. They had always used rocks instead of toilet paper. The toilets in the barracks were soon getting clogged up with rocks, so they had a training session on how to use toilet paper. Shortly after that, the toilets started getting clogged up with rocks wrapped in toilet paper.

Ug, one of the “hole in the walls” I never want to return to. I had to use the “public restroom” from time to time there. Most on this board couldn’t make it past the entrance to the public facilities. The SMELL…the condition etc. Believe me, perfume can’t cover everything.

This brings to mind the hand they chop off from thieves at “Chop Chop Square”. The right hand is taken; because it is used to wipe with and then hosed off.
