It's time for the bidet and for water filtration systems. You can use four squares of toilet paper to wipe your butt and then bidet the rest. This is a huge savings on toilet paper. An under-sink 7 stage reverse osmosis water filtration system cleans water and enriches it with minerals. It is delicious. With these two systems at home, you've addressed two top hoarding items during a panic.

> You can use four squares of toilet paper to wipe your butt and then bidet the rest. This is a huge savings on toilet paper. There must be a huge variation in diet and body shape in this discussion. Four squares is about the maximum I ever use (even if I'm ill). This is probably why I checked what's left in my cupboard (6 rolls from an 8-pack) and haven't bought any more, yet there are people loading up the trolley with 32, 48 or more rolls.

I'm so glad that I installed a reverse osmosis water filter two weeks ago (completely unrelated to the pandemic). It has been amazing! When the toilet paper shortages started happening, I used them as an excuse to convince my wife that we should buy a bidet. I had floated the idea by her multiple times over the years, but she was always weirded out by it, but I was finally able to convince her. We also have an entire deep freezer full of food and are both fortunate enough to be able to work from home, so as long as the electricity and water stay on, we can survive in complete isolation for at least a month. No toilet paper needed! We just have a stack of washcloths and we use one to pat ourselves dry (and then set it aside in a container to be washed weekly).

I have a 5 stage, what is a 7 stage? I also just purchased a whole-house UV water filter because I am concerned about viral contamination of the water supply. We usually have about 6 boilwater advisories a year. So, I also purchased a whole-house sediment filter. Of course, this is all useless, when there is no water supply.

  Can you install rain water collection system? Where I live, even houses that have central water line do have a second rain water system for washing, gardening, etc.
