I initially responded to this privately, but my inner tightwad can no 
longer remain silent...I take a half-used roll of TP, stand on it until 
flattened, then place in a zip-lock baggie.  Cost:  $.40.  Seeing 
someone stomping flat a roll of TP:  Priceless.

We take some to every event.  We could have sold it by the square at 
fall coronation last  year.
