n+1 - they throw away the extra roll. That's the point - they expend one extra roll in order to save n rolls, a net saving in the long run.

I'm with you on Lynx, I hate air fresheners and most anti-persperants as smelling _foul_.

I can't help baulking at the waste involved, though I suppose if they did the n thing they'd end up consuming twice as many breadrolls!

I can't even find a deodorant without antiperspirant. Which is silly. I want to sweat, it's how I cool down. When I wear antiperspirant I just end up sweating in silly places like down my back.
