So how much toilet paper would you normally get through?

I get a large box of 36 rolls every 3 months from Amazon.
That lasts 3 of us for 3 months so approx 1 roll per person per week.
How much do you get through?

    That sounds about right but the cheapo single ply with big tubes don't last so long.

    Yes it would depend on the quality.
    I get Amazons own brand (currently unavailable  :/ )

    Do you just use it for it’s given purpose or does it serve instead of Kleenex tissues etc as well?

    Usual purpose and blowing my nose!

    Pack of 4 lasts us a week and a half.  There are two of us. We only have one pack of four at the moment so I'm hoping shelves get restocked fairly quickly.

    One roll per week, for the two of us. But OH is out all day.
    If the family visit, the boys and their mum can get through one a day, I haven’t a clue what they do with it.

    We have Bio bidet which, like the old vacuum cleaner ad, beats as it sweeps as it cleans. So very little.😁

    Plus, they are heated, which is lovely on a winter’s morning.😊

    That sounds rather exciting!!!

    According to an article in the MoS at the weekend we each get through on average 57 sheets day!!
    A surprising amount, but it did explain that a significant amount is used for 'other purposes'..
