Growing up in England during WW2 I remember public rest rooms having sheets of newspaper ripped into 4 squares and hung on a metal hook as TP.Even that was rationed during WW2.

I remember the fleabag hotel I stayed in in Paris in 1967 had stacks of torn up newspaper in the communal bathroom. You used it and then you threw it in a wastebasket (no way would it flush down). If you wanted TP, you had to provide your own.

In a lot of places in India and Turkey, there wasn't even newspaper. You brought your own TP or you used the hose that was provided.

When I was in the US Navy, 1969, I was stationed at the National Navy Medical Center, Bethesda, MD. This is where the Presidents go for medical treatment. Well, we exceeded our TP budget. And TP began drying up all over the hospital. The exchanges (military department stores) ran out. Soon, civilian grocery stores ran out. Instead of home bake goodies, service men wrote home for rolls of TP. We had billions for ships, but not a cent for TP. Thank God for the new fiscal year to clean up our rear.

Nowadays toilet paper is a loss leader at supermarkets. Not expensive at all.
