How many times have you ran out of toilet paper in a public restroom before? I know it's happened to me plenty of times. Now I make sure that I check to see if there is any toilet paper on the roll before I occupy the stall. Have you ever asked the person next to you for some toilet paper before? I've done that before too which is always embarrasing.

I've never run out of toilet paper in a public place before. At home I have though. Man that sucks. Trying to pick the last few pieces of toilet paper stuck to the roll off. Trying to whipe your butt with torn up pieces of the cardboard roll, or scrounging through the trash hoping there is something that won't clog the toilet that you can use. Or like hmmmm maybe I can use that towel. I'll just throw it away. they'll never miss it. Or maybe they will...hmmm maybe I should use something of mine. I know my shirt. Its a crappy shirt anyway I'll just use it. wait....it might look odd if i walk out of here without a shirt on.hmmmmm. Maybe I'll just walk out of here, and try to get some. Yeah maybe they won't notice me walking with my butt cheeks clenched. I hope no one can smell it. Ok here I go....oh man I can't do it. Oh I'm going to get poop in my pants. What do I do? ok ok..... will my butt fit into the sink? no that's gross. hmmmm shower! I'll take a shower! wait what if it clogs the shower? that's going to be a little obvious. ohhhh look hanna montana is on the cover of us weekly. perfect. Oh i should probably get this a little wet first... don't want to get paper cuts.

Luckily I've never run out of toilet paper in a PUBLIC restroom, as I always check before hand (and would recommend other people check too, otherwise you will suffer the consequences), but at home, it has happened several times. One time, I had to GO ALL THE WAY to the kitchen, and get the new package we had just bought from the store, and come ALL THE WAY back, and "finish." Never again. Now, I always keep at least two rolls in the cabinet above the toilet. That's in addition to a full pack under the sink, and obviously one roll on the holder.

Yeah, that always happens to me that's why I know better. I always bring my own travel tissue or wet ones. You'll never know when you'll be needing it. Here in the Philippines, rarely does the public restrooms have toilet paper .. unless you're in a fancy mall. People just love to waste toilet paper so when the next person needs them, they're all gone. LOL!

I usually have tissues in my purse too for backup.
