That $40 bidet attachment saved me way more than I expected

Bought a basic bidet attachment off Amazon six months ago. Just a cold water one, nothing fancy. My toilet paper bill dropped from like $15 a month to maybe $3. Plus I feel way cleaner after using the bathroom. Also cut down on clogged pipes from too much TP. Has anyone else made the switch and noticed a difference in their plumbing?

Oh man, I actually read something about this the other day! There was this plumbing company that did a study and found bidet users had way fewer clogs because they weren't flushing wads of TP all the time. I was kinda shocked how much the paper adds up too, like my friend switched and she said her septic tank guy noticed a huge difference in how often she needed pumping. Plus I saw some people saying their water bill barely went up so it's basically all savings lol.

My buddy got an electric one and now his kids fight over whose turn it is to use the bathroom.

Ha, yeah the TP savings are real! I was skeptical too when my sister-in-law first told me about hers. I got a cold water one last year and honestly the biggest difference I noticed wasn't even the paper bill it was how much less I have to deal with my plumbing. I live in an old house with cast iron pipes and they clog if you look at them wrong. Since I switched I haven't had a single backup. The water bill thing is true too, like maybe a buck or two extra per month at most. But fair warning if you've got a really old toilet the bidet might not fit right. Ask me how I know haha.
