  • Someone mentioned wanting a roll of TP to last at least 2 days! Got me thinking about how much we use. There are 4 of us (all adults-2 females + 2 males). We go through a roll in about 8 days on average, so a 4 pack lasts a month.

    I'm trying to work out how much sheets per visit that would roughly work out at. :D

    4 adults. People usually poop once a day so that's 32 poops in 8 days.

    The men won't use toilet roll if they go for a pee unless they've dripped on the edge of the seat - so say 2 females go pee 4 times a day (conservative guess :p ) - that's 64 times in 8 days.

    Velvet toilet paper have 165 sheets per roll. That averages about 20 sheets a day for 8 days, between the 4 of you.

    Hey, that's really not much paper at all! :eek: :p Do you all wait and go to the toilet when you're out at work or something? :D

    I make OH go at work as he uses so much (I'm the o trying to make a roll last 2 days!). I call it PAW - poo at work :D
  • When I had kids (as young adults) at home I used to go for Kleenex Toilet Rolls, Bold washing powder and good quality kitchen rolls.

    Now there are just the 2 of us I have downgraded to Nicky Toilet Rolls, Farmfoods Kitchen Rolls and their Washing Powder which is only £1 a box.

    Less peeing, pooing and dripping, saves me a fortune.
    MSE Addiction, should come with a health warning:money:

    I thought someone would comment after I wrote that !

    Well we are in much of the time as we are 3 part time workers and 1 unemployed. My rule is "one square for a wee and two for a poo--if you need more--god bless you"
    It seems as if they all take it seriously!:D:D:D
