TP shortage makes perfect sense to me. Most people just pick some up every couple of regular weekly supermarket trips.
But as the guv has been advising people for weeks they are stocking up for potentially being homebound for a few weeks.
That has led to some cleared out shelves for TP, which in turn makes people think they’d better stock up some more on—as it looks like one of the critical items that may become scarce.
It does, but what doesn't make much sense are all the videos of folks pushing shopping carts loaded with toilet paper and bottled water and little or nothing else.
