Tour toothpaste, that is.
I need to get this,
www.ezsqueezetube.com because I think I'm the only member of my family who rolls it and squeezing it only ends up being so wasteful. I think because maybe my dd rolls it.

We squeeze, and then when it's almost empty I take the bottom of a heavy glass or bottle and "iron" it, pushing whatever's left toward the cap. And then when we've squeezed out as much as possible and the rest of the family is starting a new tube, I cut off the end of the old tube and use what's left inside for several days.

Why can't you squeeze and then roll?

Of course you can do both, but I'm the only one who rolls when there's not much left. Every else would just throw it out.

& thankfully they have gotten rid of the tin & lead tubes that crushed to no return when squeezed ... not to mention made us forgetful [is that what lead does ~ I can't remember]
every time I brush my teeth I have to push the paste upward so that it isn't squeezed - I cannot even brush my teeth otherwise

I was sure this was going to be about packing a suitcase--better to roll clothes up or put in one of those vacuum-packed jobs. Either way the clothes get wrinkled.

funny ... I also had a similar thought - but when I opened the thread - I totally forgot ... [must be the lead in the toothpaste] my dd & mama roll up clothes & I cannot stand it ...

My kids do "SMASH!" that is why we use the pump style. (Aquafresh for kids)

Also thought this was something about folding packing
We have same thing diff brand n I have been growing up with it as well. Best thing cause I wouldn't handle it if the tubes weren't completely empty before throwing it away.

Fortunately, in addition to being the only one who knows to roll toothpaste, I'm also the only one who knows how to transfer finished containers into the garbage receptacle, so we don't have this problem either

I'm the only one who doesn't throw away the tube before it's squeezed to the last drop

Wouldn't that be roll or fold?

Squeeze, when tube runs low use the back of a toothbrush to flatten it and push the remaining toothpaste to the front.
