The option for "once" is at the bottom of the poll.

Usually 3-4 times... I don't mind drinking diluted tea.

I mean.. after the 1st use you store the tea bag for later use. Lets say maybe the next day you want some tea, so you reuse the bag from yesterday.

I use powdered tea leaves instead. Can make it stronger and quicker that way.

I reuse the tea bag once. Meaning, I place the once used tea bag into the refrigerator in a cup, then i use it again later.

As many times as she wants to. My gf usually makes me tea in the morning.

The poll is worded very poorly.

I drink two or three cups of green or white tea daily. I usually toss the tea bag after the first use. I have thought about this before and it seems wasteful, but I don't know why I can't bring myself to use it at least twice.

Sounds pretty ghetto to me. Like pouring water in the shampoo/conditioner when it's almost empty.

I reuse them twice for a total of three uses for each bag. Saves quite a bit of money. Drinking tea instead of coffee (used to drink coffee until my cardiologist told me to drink tea instead) also allows me to save money on milk since I drink my tea black but would put 1/2 milk in my coffee. When you drink 10-12 cups a day, it adds up. :)
