How much loo roll do you get through in a week?

All the time I was running a family home, I out one fresh on in the bathroom and one in the downstairs loo when I cleaned them each week. It always seemed perfectly adequate - 4 of us.

There was a brief spell when DSs were teens when it increased 🤣

I'm currently on a cottage holiday with new BF, we've been here 5 days and the third loo roll is empty.

What's he doing with it?!

But he has an annoying habit of wiping his face with it post toothpaste, so could be less. But I pick my battles.

You should probably add more fibre to your diet

I don’t think that’s necessarily that case. We eat a high fibre diet and use 1-2 rolls a week for 2 adults. I find the diet keeps you regular but not need much wiping each time (more of a confirmation wipe iyswim!).

5 of us here (often 7 for a few days) and I get 27 on a subscribe and save from Amazon every 4 weeks.
so approx 1 a day but I wfh a couple of days a week, dh i suspect eats things that don’t agree with his digestive system and 3 of us are women who have pesky periods - I don’t think an average of a roll a day is excessive.
