Andria Borba of Fox40 takes a look at why it’s so important to donate toilet paper, even though it may sound a little silly at first.

Toilet Paper is an excellent item to donate and we have many choices to choose from- browse our toilet paper section for ideas.

It’s not what you think! According to this article from Kake.com the inmates at Sedgwick County Jail use toilet paper for more than just the “regular” reasons.

Apparently, inmates are using toilet paper for many different reasons besides the obvious. Some reasons sound legit (like blocking the vents in the winter to stay warm), others reasons, not so much (like blocking vents so that they can get away with smoking in their cells). All of this usage has led to a $100,000 toilet paper budget per year.

So the local Sheriff has decided to limit inmates to just 1 roll of toilet paper per week, which will save taxpayers about $50,000 a year. According to Kenn Fischburg, author of the Toilet Paper Encyclopedia, one roll per week is “about normal for an average person.”

Unless you are sick, of course, in which case, inmates will be allotted as much as they need. Thank heavens!

Venezuela importing millions of toilet paper rolls due to shortage from APTN MUST SEE on Vimeo.

Venezuela’s toilet paper crisis is not as simple as it appears. It’s not just a supply and demand issue. Toilet paper among other staples such as butter, sugar, flour, and coffee are price fixed in this socialist country, so people from all walks of life can afford toilet paper. But the current political environment has led to campaigns claiming a shortage, causing people to start hoarding toilet paper in fears of running out.

To handle the shortage of toilet paper, the country is importing 50 million rolls of bathroom tissue. But, with the monthly usage at 125 million rolls, there may still not be enough to divert a crisis.

I’m glad I live in a country that I can buy toilet paper in bulk online and have it shipped to me! Don’t get left with an empty roll!

Don’t put your toilet paper in the microwave. Even if you dropped the last roll in the toilet when you were trying to put it on the dispenser and you really need it dry so you can use it RIGHT NOW because you have a phobia of using public restrooms. Even if there are no tissues, napkins, or any other paper-like substance left in your entire house or apartment. I can only imagine that this was the emergency situation that led to putting a wet roll of toilet paper in the microwave, according to this article in the Arizona Daily Star. The toilet paper roll in the microwave left several hundred dollars worth of smoke damage and a visit from the fire department.

Just don’t microwave your toilet paper! What’s the strangest thing you’ve ever tried to microwave?

If you’re a Nascar fan, be sure to look for the Charmin ads featuring the backside of white men’s briefs with tire skid marks.

“It’s a creative use of their product with a natural tie-in to the sport. It’s fun,” Dan Farrell, CMS’s senior vice president of corporate sales, told the Sports Business Journal. “It’s important to have recall with creative, and I’m sure there will be a buzz and the recall will be second to none for this.”

Skid marks are a far cry from the Mr. Whipple ads that Charmin is famous for. Although many toilet paper ads use humor, this seems on the grosser side of humor. What do you think of this promotion idea for Charmin?
