Thanks. Now I know!
1500 sq ft, 2 adults, 4 boxes
One open box, normally one or two but currently 5-6 in the closet. Lots of allergies and just me and a cat, but I almost never leave the house without one two tissues in my pocket and just in case I do forget, a mini-pack in the car. So, ummmm, one and a half?
Question: So… Tissues, one and done? Or do you use the tissue until it is done?
My father used handkerchiefs, which is cool and environmentally green and all that but, WOW, all the sudden shart shorts seem almost alright in the laundry. YUK
EDIT: to add I’m fine with TP nose blows
See, that’s where we are different. I use cloth napkins, so I don’t want to wipe my nose on my napkin. And if I’m sitting at my computer chair, I’d rather have tissues at the ready than have to interrupt what I’m doing to head into the bathroom to peel off some toilet paper. When I get home from a run and walk in the house, I’m usually sniffing back runniness and I want a tissue immediately, so it is convenient to have a box by the door.
That’s the reason for an “all white” laundry load with a dose of bleach.
My wife and I don’t have any tissues instead using handkerchiefs (or TP from time to time). They wash just fine. And I’m not sure why your father sharted so much, but that definitely is worse than a used handkerchief!
For a schnoz like mine, one mighty HONK will shred a single tissue and leave snot running down my arm. It takes 3-4 honks and at least that many tissues to clear everything out once El Schnoz decides it needs attention.
In my world the idea of a reusable tissue is inconceivable. A full-sized paper towel might withstand 2 honks. Barely.
I’ve always had problems with Kleenex. There’s a brand in Europe called Tempo which does survive the dryer. Unfortunately I don’t like them.
Dunno about “11 boxes” but:
1 near where I sit to work (family room)
1 near where Typo Knig sits to work
2 in the master bedroom, one on each nightstand
1 in each of the 3 bathrooms
1 on the dining table
Typo refers to us as “Allergo-Americans”.
The kids are always bemused when they go to someone else’s house and there are NOT boxes of kleenex on every flat surface.
Me, three kids, 2400 sq. ft.
Zero.
My daughter has allergies, and probably hates me. I just never think to buy them.
Whoops - forgot about the work desk - that bumps me up to 5
I didn’t list the box in each car, but they aren’t really in the house.
I can use toilet paper in an emergency, but it is sadly deficient.
Two. One in the bedroom and one in the living room. The one in the living room is in one of these. It was a gift and I like it. Makes me laugh.
That’s for my wife and I and three young adult offspring,1000 sq ft house, two bedroom, one bath. Yes, it’s crowded.
I prefer paper towels over tissues. Tuba player lungs> tissue. I create confetti from tissues.
(Fair notice about edited quote: I cleaned the tracking crap off your link.)
I said upthread that I don’t like and don’t have tissue box holders. Thanks to you, the scales have fallen from my eyes. I actually LOLed at your link. One is now on order.
The fact the tissue comes out of the nose is what totally makes it.
You are not nuts, but wow, you have so much kleenex boxes 
By the way, I have only two in my bedroom and kitchen.
Funny, right? It makes no sense, but it’s funny. It’s sure better than the “designer” patterns on the boxes.
Sorry about the tracking crap. I had no idea that was there.
1 in each bathroom (3)
2 in MBR, 1 in other bedrooms (5)
1 in my office, in a needlepoint holder that was my mother’s
1 in the kitchen
1 in family room
That’s 11. So you’re not alone.
I have about the same number of little scissors in the same places, I have bought and lost so many over the years.
Shouldn’t you have ordered 11?
All depends on your point of view, I would suppose.
