When Palm Beach County residents order toilet paper online, they order big.

E-commerce website Alice.com analyzed its toilet paper sales data for last year and found that residents in the area from West Palm Beach to Boca Raton rank as the 16th-largest spenders on purchases of toilet paper in 330 markets.

Residents in Palm Beach County plunked down an average of $16.08 for their TP. Neither Broward nor Miami-Dade counties made the Top 25.

The No. 1 spenders were in Fayetteville, N.C., where they averaged $21.82. At the "bottom" were residents of the Odessa-Midland, Texas area, who averaged $7.84, according to the website.
