Pros and Cons of Reusable Toilet Roll?
Ask a Question
With shelfs getting emptied as quick as they are filled im seriously considering resuable bog roll ( just for wees!). What are the pros and cons please if anyone does use them? Ive got lots of rags and a sewing machine to make some just dont want to start and not use them.
I be using wet wipes if things get any worse if government don't won't to sort the mess out I be blocking the drains up
Ann1984 i did away with them years ago because we had a septic tank. Didnt even think of the amount of plastic they are made up of. But your are right, people are going mad for wet wipes now too, i thought it was weird today but didn't give it a second thought x

i think the plague would be brought back with every woman walking round with a p!ssy nonney 
Just make sure you don't use surface wipes or anything not designed for those uh, areas!
There's always kitchen roll..... I am truly hoping that it doesn't revert to Roman preferences with a reusable sponges.....or leaves.....or the Sun. On a serious note my area have had posts where there are no rolls at all at Asda. 
I never knew that was ever a thing...Iโd rather use newspaper, as weโve plenty of that around! Or in Asia they just have a hose next to the toilet
Several (most) newspapers are only good for bum wiping anyway, but then I'd not want to give them my money!
My mother said when she was young they used to cut the newspaper into squares and it would be hammered onto a board on the wall with a nail 
i dont understand where all the toilet roll is going and what its got to do with coronavirus.
KirsteyJames exactly, its the flu not the runs. Theres no bread, veg or bog roll in our local shops its ridiculous! I couldn't believe the amount of people in there yesterday afternoon all with shopping tollys over flowing, i only wanted 2 apple juices x
LottieMyya it is ridiculous. My wife went to savers after work yesterday to pick up some calpol and a man came in shouting that there was no antibacterial hand gel, the store manager said that they had new stock in yesterday morning and they had ordered much more than usual but it had already sold out. Apparently the guy was screaming at the staff.
kevlfc if thats what your into 
. There is also a soap shortage in the country as well so thats not going to be the best of ideas
Plenty of carex anti bacterial soap reduced to 86p in Tesco! Loads left and loads of Andrex & Cushelle toilet roll. I can understand why plenty of people would stock up on the hand wash and sanitisers but I donโt really see why everyone is panic buying toilet roll!!
Dani1 hahah!! brilliant lol! literally must be what peopleโs panic rooms look like its crazy!
AliceBell64468 they did make me laugh It is crazy, just looking for cheap fittings so I can build my room
Or the Daily Mail, or the Express... I could go on. But the problem is then funding hate!
Sounds hideous if I'm honest.
Though not as bad as a woman who was in the news not too long ago, who made her whole family do it, even for poos... And she washed them in the washing machine.
MeestairChrees you put them in a bucket of bleach first and then wash them off then they go in the machine. Its no different to washing pooy baby clothes that have just had a rinse. I dont think she would put them in with anything else
LottieMyya I don't think I'd want to wash pooey baby clothes in the washing machine either!
Who remembers school toilet paper? Ours was like tracing paper. Awful stuff!
Anyways iv not come across toilet roll shortage (yet). Still plenty in my local Tesco & online. 
Perfect for the oncoming ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE - No need to wipe just crap and go!
And yes these are for real available in Walmarts and TWD website probably a future collectors item as well!
I couldnโt cope with using reusable 
would have to risk the burn of the kitchen roll
