Texsox Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 LOL, I am putting together my camp budget and am trying to figure out how much toilet paper a person uses per week. One roll? 1/2 roll? I know it depends on the food, but, damn I'm googling toilet paper usage stats and not finding sh, I won't go there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaSoxxJim Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 You will be sorry if you do not bring 2 rolls/person/week. Especially after Chili Night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palehosefan Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Yikes, 1 square on a camping visit would leave you with very muddy hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, there's something to be said for the comfy cozy feeling of being in the Crow's nest. I don't even know what that means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 seriously, plan for 2 rolls per person... TP is cheap and the more the merrier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangeSox Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Better to have too much than too little. Much better. Besides, its not like it'll go bad. I'd go with 1.5 or 2 rolls per person. It's probably overkill but it's better than wiping with leaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I say ask them to each bring one for themselves, then you only have to bring one for each member as an extra. If someone uses more than someone else, you're covered then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 It depends an awful lot on the kind of TP you buy. For example, going with Scott (1000 sheets/roll) is going to get you through a lot more time than going with all your fancy, 2-ply stuff. If I was going with that sort, I would probably go with about 1 roll per person per 5-6 days, with a few backup rolls just to be on the safe side.

Texsox Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 Actually we are not backpacking. It's a residence camp on the beach, and we make regular supply trips. http://lagunastation.org/ No worry about running out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certain types require more wiping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
