Let's get back on track now - here is step 5
Week 5 - PERSONAL PRODUCTS Soap, Deodorant, toilet paper at least one roll per week. Shampoo, lotion, hand soap, 15 per person etc.
Wow, this is a fun week. I have been trying to figure out how much deodorant I need per person. Not sure on this one. But I will go for one stick of deodorant for every 3 months per person. That means I will need 4 sticks for myself and 4 for my husband. For a total of 8 for the year.
Toilet paper is easy one roll per week per family member. That means a total of 104 rolls of toilet paper for the year.
Shampoo is pretty easy for my husband and I. I like to buy the largest bottles I can find when it comes to shampoo and creme rinse. For us each bottle last about 5 months. So I know that I will need 3 bottles of each for the year. Thank goodness my husband doesn't have much hair!! (That's a joke!)
Lotion I also get the large bottles. Which means that I will need at least 15 bottles for myself and for my husband. So 30 bottles.
Hand soap - I like the bottled hand soap not the bars.
At Costco you can find 1 gallon containers of hand soap. They also have hand santizer that would be great to add to our personal products. I have seen it in the individual envelopes and in the pump bottle. Plus they have the round tub of santizer wipes for hands and counters.
Toliet paper - there are many many places to get toliet paper. I tend to watch for those wonderful coupons and sales and stock up when I find them. Please remember that in times of emergencies you might have to use a porta potty or an outhouse or you might have to go outside. So I try to purchase only white paper to help with the going green for the earth.
I hope everyone has a great week!
