+1 it's not for decor it's in case someone needs a tissue. I am more vigilant about it in the winter time when there are more colds but my daughter also gets bad seasonal allergies in the spring so I'm learning to just keep them out year round. It's especially useful when teaching kids not to wipe their noses or faces on their clothes. |
| I always thought it was an “old lady” thing to keep tissue boxes around - unless you’re sick |
+1 |
| Yes each bedroom and in the family room. |
| Never. So gauche. Bathroom only. |
| I didn't before I had kids but do now. |
| In my current house - yes, because DH and the kids have a lot of allergies. Growing up and still at my parents house, no one has allergies so the tissues are only in the bathrooms. |
| In mine it's about one box per 1k/sqft |
| We have them everywhere. Young kids. Great for wiping up little spills or making doll dresses |
| Yes, if I'm busy I'm not walking to the bathroom for a tissue. Especially if I'm chopping onions. |
| Yes. Mostly bathrooms but one box in the family room and one in my office. |
| This is an enlightening window into the world of people without allergies. |
Hygiene is so gauche! |
What are old ladies doing with those tissues? |
| Bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchen. We have allergies. It drives me nuts when I can't find tissues at someone's house because it is so embarrassing to have a runny nose or a sudden urge to sneeze and no tissue around. I always have tissues in my purse for this reason. |
