Bidet Hose - Connect to Tap, Spray Your Bum
Toilet roll is sold out every where, so if you're looking for an alternative solution, perhaps you may be interested in a bidet hose.
If you've never seen one before, it's extremely common across the rest of the world:
Here's a video showing you how to use it:
Cleaning yourself with water rather than toilet paper is a popular alternative.
Usually, you will find the hose connected to the plumbing next to the toilet. However, UK homes don't normally have this.
So this Amazon product lets you attach it to your kitchen sink instead.

If you're still looking for toilet roll, then forget mainstream supermarkets. You're chances are better at more expensive supermarkets like Waitrose or Marks & Spencer.
Alternative places to look include office suppliers such as Costco, Rymans and Staples e.g.

And of course, you can also use wet wipes, tissues, and just a normal shower hose with soap.
We used to have a similar hose in our old flat. It is cleaner to use water and then tissue. Like Freddie Flintoff once said: "If you had poo on your arm, you wouldn't just wipe it, you would wash it."
Too expensive my girlfriend is brilliant and thrifty - she made one this morning for nowt!
OMG this is hilarious! But I guess you could just use a shower head for the same thing and free??
Think I will pass on this but thanks for making my family chuckle at this one. By the way do we have to spray it for at least 20 seconds? lol
As a scientist my answer has to be that it would depend on No 2 Density and splatter radius so 20 seconds may be too short - you may in some cases just have to take a shower!
....and my friend said I'm disgusting for sitting on the side of the bath and showering my bum when out of toilet roll! Xx
Lived in Thailand for 12 years and always used a bidet hose then dry off with a little toilet tissue. More hygienic than toilet paper and no skidmarks on your pants lol
