So, if there's just one person in the house and a 20 year old toilet works fine…

Is there any justification in buying a ToYo (or whatever the correct name is) toilet?

My water bill only went over the minimum charge once or twice in 11 years, so I'm not going to pay for it in savings on my water bill, and my Cadet toilet flushes just fine.

Tell me why I should spend the extra $ for a ToYo or ToTo, whatever. Actually, if I just replace the rubber ducky ball, it will probably last another 5 years, but I do want to paint the wall behind it and, as long as it's out (and it is old)…

To help save the environment. No other reason makes sense for you.

Put a dam inside the tank (probably available free from your local water agency) and you'll probably cut the water use by 30+% with no loss of function.

I put an empty glass jar on the right side. It fills with water once and then it displaces that amount on every fill.

since you're the only person in the house...

If it's yellow, let it mellow
If it's brown, flush it down

Hey, another potty post!

I retrofitted my classic potty with a dual-flush gadget. Inexpensive ($20?); works pretty well.

You shouldn't. Don't piss your money away.

This thread has really gone to the toilet ...

what a crappy post.

I added some filled water bottles to the tanks of our toilets to make them use less water. Our toilets are vintage 1987.
