Wondering if the stores are still out of tp and other paper products.

There is a tissue mill in Flagstaff also.
Who would have thunk there was one in KINGMAN.
Call the store(s).
They got the sheriffs dept hanging around there now.
Dam! This is WAY beyond nuts.
Nat’l Guard being deployed....to protect TP supplies....wouldn’t that be crazy?
I went last Wed and was able to get a 30-roll pack of Charmin (I'm good until next year, now). I was there today, but the only thing they had was the commercial brand Marathon. No other TP or paper towels.
They had plenty of gas, though. Paid $1.69 for it, Northern Virginia.
Local production at Roses

Gone for this week but hopefully again next week?
Think they sold for two days this last week.
FINALLY, an expert answer!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for that explanation of why we have this TP shortage.
Nobody in the federal government seems to be addressing this shortage.
Needs to be part of the emergency actions to get rid of these EPA regulations and bring some paper factories back to the US....if the price goes through the roof, so be it.
I think the OP is interested in the Albuquerque or even Santa Fe area where they can safely replenish supplies without undue risk considering their age and diabetes/asthma. Maybe people from that area can respond? You might also call the Albuquerque stores. Some have special hours for older/at risk people. You might also get someone who has knowledge of when they are expecting a shipment of toilet paper etc.
Still out of tp here.
I am going to wait a couple of weeks before I shop.
WRT food, Costco and most other grocery stores seem to be well stocked with fresh produce and bread. Frozen and canned seems to be stocked as normal. You’ll probably find short supplies of milk and eggs. The 50-lb bags of premium rice go quick here, but there’s a large Asian and Indian (dot-not-feather) population in this area.
That’s why TP is sold in six-roll packs.
or multiples of 6 ;)
Yes, I have to admit that.
its backfire in LA...it is delivered every mornung. they have senior hours at the stores and it ids available then ...but quickly runs out.
So, in everyday but go early. Trader also has it.
Being a “Prepper” since the first election of Obummer I have 148 rolls of TP in my cache. Everybody in my area laughed at me 5 years ago. Funny how things turn out.
That hasn't worked too well for us. All the critical items are always out of stock, so we get half of our order. At least we have TP.
Are you The Great Cornholio?...
