If you want to save on paper you can always use both sides of it.

When I lived in Brazil, the toilet paper was so rough, like those cheap paper towels that they have in schools. I was so happy to have our good old U.S. soft toilet paper back.

Have you noticed that the rolls are now 1 inch narrower. But the price is getting bigger.

I used to wad it long ago....having been taught that way by my Mom eons ago. Then when I was older, a boyfriend at the time was appalled that I was using so much and he taught me to fold it. Thereby making the roll last longer. I've done that ever since.
For #1, I use 3 sheets of Quilted Northern, folded. Plenty.

About 35 years ago I lived for a brief time with my sis & bro-in-law. My sis mentioned that she was shocked at how much more TP they went through when I was there. It was then that I realized I was using way more than I needed. I've always been frugal with TP - and other paper products - since then. I'm glad my sister spoke up.
