Charmin Wet Wipes ($0.05 per wipe, Amazon 4.5 stars, 6 reviews)

For wiping in the bathroom. Much more pleasant than regular toilet paper as far as comfort and cleanliness. Note that some reviews of wet wipes result in pain or rashes due to allergic reactions. The Cottonelle dispenser works better and the wipes are a bit sturdier.

I've thought of getting the Toto toilet with integrated spray wash and dry. If I do, I will report back.

Wet wipes, or good quality toilet paper. Cheap toilet paper is offensive.

I think I must be the only person who prefers cheap, terrible toilet paper. (It feels drier, which I care about more than most other axes along which toilet paper varies.)

Argh, I really wish I'd remembered that you said this! On this recommendation I bought these wipes a few months ago and have been really enjoying them, and also I've been suffering from precisely such rashes and not knowing why until today when I finally found the right combination of search terms to describe the problem I was having (I was using "chafe" before). The insidious part is that the wipes were one of the two things that consistently relieved the pain, the other one being showering.
