Just turn it inside out and you wear it twice as long . . . . .

You spin underwear front to back first then do the inside out thing. Four times the wearing from one wash.

5. Many people are saying they have great success

recycling their toilet paper.

Collect the used paper, throw it in your washing machine with bleach and disinfectant.
Collect the resulting pulp, spread out and flatten, leave in the sun to dry.
Cut into suitable sized sheets.

Many people are saying they get an 80% or more recovery rate that way.

(Note the deliberate use of a Trump phrase there, 'Many people are saying . . . . ', it really means 'I just made that up'.)

8. Why use toilet paper when you could use corn cobs. Everybody likes corn

on the cob. You have corn on the cob then use the cob to wipe your ass later. You could also wash them and dry them
out and use them over and over many times. Environmentally friendly.
