The work Mandy did with her presentations must have been amazing to experience :) @<a href="#comment-1539" rel="nofollow">Le-Chat</a>: Thanks for sharing your experience. I've thought about wee cloths too. And I'd never put together that if you don't use toilet paper you don't have to flush so often either - great point; thanks! @Shawna Coronado: Hi Shawna, you are welcome.

Hahahaha...best way to get rid of them! (Payed all I owed them as a good girl in the end anyway) But about the TP... 120 rolls per person? Wow. I think I did about one a week. But since I introduced my so called drop-cloth (and old face cloth) I went down to one in 3-4 weeks. Living alone I don't find it groce to use it for several days then just replace and wash the other one. It also saves water. Not having to flush away the paper a minimal squirt of water (I have a stopper on my toilet) is enough or just a drop from the bucket with rainwater or shower water. I still gtet a lot of unadressed junkmail, but I recycle most of that as note paper or packaging. At least I haven't BOUGHT a piece of printing or writing paper in over ten years.
