Just saw on Fox News that toilet paper sales dropped 8% this past year. Pretty sure TP would be near the bottom on my list of things to cut back on during tough times.
could this not just simply be instead of buying Charmin gillzion quilted buying john wayne TP instead??
or steal it from work/school... know people who have/still do, do this.
I take a good healthy amount of tp and fold it over several times. I saw a study a while back on the amount of fecal matter that still passes through TP when you don't fold it a couple of times.
Most people just wash their hands afterwards. But if you're really anal about keeping your hands clean (pun intended) then that's okay too. 
Most people don't wash their hands thoroughly or long enough. Most people also touch things between wiping and washing their hands. Pants, belt, toilet, faucet, etc.
By all means though, have fun spreading your own crap all over your home.
how funny would it be to see a dude at the bill or bram waddle out of the stall to the sink with pants at ankles to wash hands before. "Pants,belt, toilet, faucet, etc."
