Paper Towels

I go through about 6 rolls of the select a size kind per week. I buy the generic store brand but it still adds up. I have 6 dckids plus the four people in my family. I have to use a new disposable paper towel each time for each child, it's part of my licensing regulations.
My DH suggested I buy one of those wall mount c fold/multifold towel dispensers for the bathroom and maybe it will save some money. Does anyone have one? Do you like it?

I opted for the paper towel dispensers with the white or brown paper towel sheets (like in restrooms, etc).
They were cheap enough to buy, and the refills if you shop around can be cheap for 6000 sheets, I haven't even put a dent in the towel supply, i've refilled 2 of 3 dispensers 1 time so far since january. The cost of each sheet works out to be .001 for the price I paid. And I paid about 20 for each dispenser. I bought 3 (bathroom, entryway/kitchen, and outside shed).

Right now I use paper towels cut in half. I buy the 2 for a $1 rolls.
You can also get from most janitorial suppliers in the area FREE dispensers as long as you purchase their refills. I was considering doing this, they loan you the dispensers because you are ordering their refills. But their refills were more than $10.00 more than everywhere else. So in the end I could've bought those dispensers several times over.

Originally posted by CheekyChick View PostI use the mutifold paper towels and we have three dispensers (1 in kitchen and 1 in each of the two DC restrooms). I would say it costs about $30.00 per month.
I paid $27 for 6000 cfold/multifold sheets, and we use them for everything, snacks, floor spills, handwashing (small kids 2 sheets per wash, and adults about 3 sheets per wash). I got these in January, and I've maybe used 3 bundles out of 16.
As for the individual facecloths for the kids, I considered this, but I've got a mountain of laundry everyday as it is, I can barely keep up with the facecloths for washing faces, I couldn't imagine for washing hands too.
