Not all of us with adequate supplies are Chicken Littles. I order TP in a 24 double roll quantity from Amazon every 8 weeks. I’ve done this for a few years as I don’t like to run low on anything. I also throw a pack or two at our college-aged son who lives in another city when he comes to visit us.

Lucky me, my delivery of TP came last week. No frantic looking around for TP for us. I’m sharing with neighbors who didn’t plan ahead too.

Get some newspaper, crumple it some and wipe away.
Catalogs and other slick paper won't work very well.

This was what was behind the mountain of fat that London ended up with in its sewer system three years ago: people flushing something other than toilet paper down the toilet and the jam taking on a life of its own in the city’s sewers. (It had grown to the size of six city buses before they were able to break it up.)

If you don’t have TP, all you need is a squirt bottle. That’s it. Some people.

It’s the disposable culture - they have no idea that it’s OK to use washcloths and then launder them for re-use...just like the diapers so many of us grew up with...

So... people that own toilet paper are responsible for the people that flush t shirts down the toilets... Ok...
