Try telling my man, he never uses it after just a wee!I think the kind of people who claim they only use 4 loo rolls a month, are the same people who claim they only spend £25 - £30 a week on the entire shopping bill for two people. I have actually seen people say that on here. :rotfl:
I honestly find that 4 rolls last longer than a month, each roll is about 8-10 days and find that plenty.I just plain and simple don't believe it. Unless these people are NEVER home, or they only sh*t once a weekhow on EARTH can they use 4 loo rolls a MONTH?! I call bullsh*t!
Rubbish, I am at home all day and he works shifts and my habits aren't extreme. If I were using more I would be wondering why unless someone had a tummy upset.Lost my soulmate so life is empty.
I can bear pain myself, he said softly, but I couldna bear yours. That would take more strength than I have -

OMG LOL :rotfl:
Also struggling to believe anyone who says their family only use 1 toilet roll a week. I just don't know anyone who does use this little.Proud to have lost over 3 stone (45 pounds,) in the past year! :j Now a size 14!

You must have those Jumbo rolls like they use in public loos or if you have normal sized rolls then you cant use it all the time after going to the loo. I could easily use 1 to myself daily.0 -

Agree. IMO, it would be impossible for a couple to use only 1 standard size toilet roll a week between them, especially if one is at home all day. I just simply can't fathom how it's even possible. Unless as some people have already said; they only have a number '2' once a week! Then again, females still need to use a bit when they have a number '1' !!!Proud to have lost over 3 stone (45 pounds,) in the past year! :j Now a size 14!

Try reading #82 and you will see how this happened but yes, I did count (read #82!)
I find it amazing how some people can be judgmental.....we use 4 rolls a month ON AVERAGE. My OH is out of the house 5 days a week, I'm out of the house 4 days a week and LB is still in nappies so how can it be so unbelievable?? I also have very regular poo times and go at the same time every day....I'm usually at work at this time :rotfl:
I have never been 'one of those people' that claim to feed my family on £25-£30 per week, I WISH!! Although I have to say I did do my main monthly shop for just over £100 this month as I actually bothered to do a stock check in my freezer and cupboards....I was bloody amazed just how much stuff I didn't realise I had!!!!! (this doesn't include things like milk/veg etc that need to be bought as and when)
And I bought 16 ROLLS OF TOILET PAPER........let's see if I can make jaylee happy and get through them by next week0 -
I`m going to have to observe how much we use as I have no idea :rotfl:
I`m pretty sure its 1 roll in 2 days on average, I didn't refill yesterday and 1 loo will need replenishing in the morning - 2 adults 2 children (2 loos).DebtFree FEB 2010!Slight blip in 2013 - Debtfree Aug 2014 :j
