I think the toilet paper and pads scenarios probably date from wartime or post-wartime fears of 'not having enough'. Separate sheets popped everywhere could be like little hoards in case they run out? Probably in wartime people used any scraps to write upon. I think it is linked with a feeling of wanting to be clean - also makes complete sense if you fear your supplies may run out. Every little scrap had to be preserved in the kitchen and recycling had a strong meaning then.
As for the chocolate and sweets - they all do that! My caree has a little squirrel hoard between her armchair and the wall with telltale flakes on the carpet. Hey - at least why not live for the moment and enjoy all the cheats you can when father time is your enemy! Bless us all - for sure! x
