What is your loo roll of choice? (lemm.ee)

Lavatory paper, toilet tissue, bog roll, bumwad, arse wipe, shit tickets; we all need it but I can't find a good one for a reasonable price.

Obviously I don't want the tracing paper you get in a public toilet, but it seems a waste to pay for the quadruple-velvet perfume-soaked premium nonsense. Supermarket own brand is soft enough but tends to fall apart. Who Gives A Crap is environmentally friendly but their basic stuff disintegrates immediately and their premium stuff is even more expensive than the fancy Andrex.

And no, there's no room for a bidet.

Costco toilet rolls are the superior product, my friends. Trouble is you get something like 48 rolls in a wholesale packet - so you need somewhere to stash them.

Somewhere dry, in a sturdy container to protect it against pests.

Which Costco also sells. Those 40+ quart translucent containers hold most of the 38 rolls you get from them.

(I'll admit to a little sarcasm - it's funny Costco sells these giant packs of bog roll, and also sells you the box to store it in. Irony, right?)

Quart? I'm not storing a bushel of grain to be inspected by the lord of the manor!

Seriously though I do love efficient storage containers and would happily fill the house with them.

Hey, if you have a lord of the manor, quart comes from your measurement system!

We've managed to cut the crazy units down to a handful just for special occasions
