14 Ways to Make Your Coronavirus Supplies Last Longer

Invest in a bidet

Before you run out of toilet paper, you might want to consider switching tactics altogether. “There are lots of places in the world that use water instead of paper for this hygienic need,” says Scheller-Wolf. A good solution is buying a bidet.

You can even make a DIY option with an 8-ounce plastic bottle. “Just poke holes in the lid so it sprays water instead of pours,” Vukovic advises. “Fill the bottle with water, and keep it next to the toilet. Use it to spray water down your backside after going #2, and then dry yourself with a cloth, which you should then promptly put in a container next to the toilet.”
