Drip dry for #1 and save the #2 business for school / work. Surely you can hold it for a measly two days. You'll save dozens of dollars a year! Better yet, stop using TP at all.

I am sure there is someone that is trying that right now to save a buck.

My wife and I are just doing something quite similar except we are forgoing toilet paper for a wet cloth. No, not on our bums, but our son's bum. He is only 22 mths old and using several wet clothes on him is probably the only economical way to wipe his bum as he does "his serious and wet business" about 2-3 times a day. Prior to using the wet cloth, we used baby wipes which costed a fortune. This really funny! My wife and I are just doing something quite similar except we are forgoing toilet paper for a wet cloth.
