If people simply bought a bidet attachment for their toilet. The least expensive ones are about $30 and they go up from there. It pays for itself in no time.

For wiping things down, whatever happened to washcloths, hot water, and soap?

We haven’t bought wipes in decades. I can’t stand the thought of wiping those chemicals all over myself or my stuff.
