This situation is even better, a situation where you resort to salt or charcoal for brushing of teeth, and black soap of 10N for bathing

My guy if ur situation no ever reach like this, then u are enjoying as u haven't tasted poverty.
If u ever used your soap or toothpaste up to this level, two things are involved
1. Its either ur stingy to yourself
2. Your poverty level has a confidence interval of 100%

Poverty and you're living I side that kind of house.

I have 3 tubes of Colgate in reserve, two (durbar medicated and colgate)in active use in my bathroom with one sensodyne in my knapsack in case of travel.

I have 2 active bathsoaps with 12 in reserve ( i use any soap but must be medicated)

I have teas, seasonings, dishwashing liquids, detergents and others in reserve, anytime i enter a supermarket i buy, i don't want a case of bordering myself over minor things as this and mostly because i really lacked such necessities in school.

Most times, it's not about being stingy or poverty, it could also happen through forgetfulness.

Sometimes I would have planned to shop on my way back from work, only for me to enter the bathroom before I remember the plans to replace those items.
Exactly.
I have a hard time remembering to buy soap or toothpaste.

I disagree with that close-up own.

Sometimes, there'll be money to get a new one, but probably because I'm late for class or I'm lazy to go out and buy a new one, I'll then decide to tear the old one open.

And scoop from it.

Exactly... Atimes I even forget to buy new one and just have to use it like that, believing I'll buy when returning that day, only for me to forget again

This is not poverty but a condition of the mind that makes you forget about toothpaste and bathing soap until you enter the bathroom the next morning.

Funny enough, even though I can afford thousands of toothpaste, i still tear my toothpaste open and make sure to scoop out everything with my toothbrush before discarding.
If you like say I’m stingy to myself na you know. This month alone I’ve already done giveaway of over 700k, so I’m convinced deep down in my heart that I’m not stingy. This is what matters most to me
