Question Posted Saturday December 12 2009, 11:54 am

how do you guys split up living expenses?

it's been a while living together with roomies now and we haven't yet divided things up clearly.

and it's not really fair for some people to pay for shared materials like paper towels, soap, dishwasher soap, toilet paper, etc the majority of the time.. especially since they're not the ones who use that stuff up the fastest. not to mention groceries too, but whatever, don't have to get into that. it gets expensive if it's just one person paying for it. it's a bad habit.

there's no way for everyone to just buy their own, right? it's kind of nonsensical because there's only one toilet paper dispenser, etc.

for paper towels a towel substitute would probably be best because it's a one-time buy kind of thing and all it needs is to be cleaned once in a while.

so if a certain person paid for some of the stuff last, and it's the other person's turn to do it, what's a nice way to word it nicely? especially since it's their turn to buy kind of a few things (the materials mentioned above)
