How do you like your toilet paper to be on the roll? I like mine up and over. When hubby's here and he happens to be at the end of a roll he always puts it going down and under. I of course change it back.

But last night I glimpsed a little about a new invention. It's a toilet paper holder that swivels! How cool is that? It goes both ways. I need to see where I can get one of those handy little marriage saving devices.

So what are ya'll? Up or down?

I'm an UP & OVER kinda gal too. And Kris, I too change it where every I am to up and over, even if I'm at a friend's house. Guess it is an OCD kind of thing, but there are worse things to be obsessed about I guess.

Melanie, did you catch where they are being sold yet? I'd still like to have one. Mt hubby's not home much and I feel bad for changing it to where it's up but I do anyway. Like MJ it just drives me nuts, too.

These dogs and cats are so funny. I used to have a cat that would shred tp to pieces.

The other day I had to go to Target with my grand, Kansas. I had to go to the bathroom first. So I went in the big stall because I like to have room to move and where I'm not stuffed in. So I sit and look and there's NO tp! So I ask Kansas to go in the next stall and hand me some. She brings me this tiny little wadded up piece and I told her that wasn't enuf to wipe a baby bottom. She had to go 3 more times before she got enuf to actually do some good. And of course I was just stuck because I have to have tp. I could never pee outside while we were camping. I had to have tp. Just one of those things.

Hahaha! Kris, we too have the same delemma in our house. DH like it down & under and I like up and over. We solved that by one bathroom (the one he uses most) is his way and the other is my way. Fair is fair right?

Toto, we're not in Kansas any more!

I agree with Amy Grace! My husband never puts it on the roller. On the scales under the roller and on the side of the bathtub, but never on the roll thing. oh, up and over. It drives me nuts the other way, don't know why lol!

Hahahah Kris!! I saw that swivel thing on tv the other night too! I don't know how long a contraption like that would last in my house. The kids and the dog would probably think, " oh boy she bought us a new toy! Let's see how long we can play with it till it breaks." Danny, our rott/mix likes toliet paper a whole lot, so he's not allowed in the bathroom, or there won't be any tp in the potty, it will be all over the rest of the house. He obviously doesn't care if it's up or down as long as there is a tail hanging that he can get a hold of. LOL But as for me, I'm an up and over kinda gal. I worked in a nursing home where the administrator was anal about how the toliet paper was put on. The kids sometimes get it right, but not usually.

Ya'll are so funny. I needed a good laugh just now. I do the same thing when I'm out! I change the roll to where it goes up and over. It must be an OCD thing. Who knows. And yes, my hubby does put a roll on but he does it wrong every time.

I love it when I go in and they have placed a new roll on the sink. It is like they are afraid of getting electrocuted if they touch the toilet paper roll thingy. I would love to hook something up when the roll emptys that would talk to them.

I prefer down and under. It stays that way because apparently I'm the only one in the house who knows how to change the roll.

Up and over.

However, don't have a TP holder in our bathroom . . . didn't want the obstruction on the wall. I have a little basket right by the toilet with TP in it . . . 2 rolls. You an pick it up and unroll any way you like

I like up and over, how-ever my DH has to have it down & under. So it is down & under.

Hope all your days are Sunnydays.

Down and under for me. I have heard that the proper way, is over.

We have cats so ours goes down and under. I like it better that way anyway. My Hubby doesn't care but me sister who lives with us likes hers up and over. Cats waste two much of it that way.

I am happy to just have toilet paper on the roll in my house!

It's all good!
