We have plenty of paper towels, we always buy in bulk.

And we have a modest amount of TP.

A friend picked up a 24 roll pack of Scott for us and that was nice.

Having enough paper products is the least of my supply problems.

I’ve been hitting the dollar stores and scoring copies of Clintoon’s books for a buck a pop. They work just as well as the rolls of paper towels.

At some point, even hoarders realize enough is enough.

My wife and I both drink alkaline water, Costco started carrying a Kirkland brand just over month ago. It’s about half the price of discount grocery stores. We keep a 1+ month supply on hand. It comes in 18 one liter bottles to a case. My wife drinks a lot of unsweetened tea plus about one bottled of alkaline water. I go through 4-5 bottles of allaline water per day; just over a gallon.

Very refreshing and no negatives of sodas.

There was some place in the UK that was selling hand sanitizer for something like $2.99 for the first bottle and $95.00 for the second bottle in order to stop people hoarding. Makes sense...

I scored 4 rolls of TP at the citrus grove yesterday. Who’d have thunk it?

They’re using Maple tree leaves in Canada.

Smart on Walmart’s part because if they don’t modify quickly they are going to lose a lot of business. I can go down the street to Kroger and find a sh-t ton of eggs, milk, etc. but Walmart is out of everything!

Went to the local Family Dollar this morning to buy stuff for the grand kids. They had plenty of paper towels and toilet paper. However the Spam was all gone. Bummer.

Congratulations are most definitely in order for your accomplishment. You should take a representative toilet tissue sample, have it notarized, dated, then framed and hung on your office wall as a reminder of your noteworthy achievement. .... A photo for us less-fortunate shut-ins under "temporary" house arrest would be a nice thing for you to provide.

Cheers! & regards

Lowes has had pallets of Paper Towels the last two times I visited.

I had already bought 3(12 packs) about 4 weeks ago before the mad rush.
