(6,806 posts)I had an aunt and uncle who got married early in the depression. They were FRUGAL. They continued depression era savings measures for all of their lives. As a result for the rest of their married life into the 1970s they only bought toilet paper when company came over. How much money could you save by not buying toilet paper for 45 years? Probably saved some sewer bills too. Haha.

Use it, rinse it off in the sink, put it back for the next person to use.
