Yes. TP is going fast here. We’re also getting runs on sanitizer.
My neighbor reported empty shelves for toilet paper and hand sanitizer.
I started laying in supplies a few weeks ago and have a good month of food, medicines, etc. Never crossed my mind everyone would hoard TP. Fortunately, I have plenty as our local stores are all out.
Can still get plenty of food and limited sanitizer. Liquid bleach yes. Clorox wipes no.
Was at my local Kroger yesterday - they just received 2 pallets of TP and were restocking the shelves. Everything else was in stock.
Same here. I have managed to get enough though. So far no virus in my area so I’ve been stocking up slowly without going nuts like so many are.
Amazon is out of TP
South Carolina low country...alcohol is all gone from all stores
My fruit trees are blooming and my hothouse vegetables are looking good and my neighbor has chickens. If things get bad we’ll survive but it’s the panic that is the biggest threat. I’m concerned that the powers that be could use this situation for police state tactics and martial law.
We were okay in my neck of the Upstate NY woods until Cuomo shot off his mouth a few days ago. Then locusts descended.
Good thing toilet paper hasn’t changed much since the Civil War.
Yep, was in my local Shop Rite yesterday and not a roll of TP was available and what few liquid soaps were on the shelves were not the “anti-bacterial” kind. I understand the soaps but cannot for the like of me understand the TP shortage.
I haven’t heard that CV causes any more frequent bowel movements than not. It’s a respiratory illness not the stomach flu. What am I missing with this run on TP?
South Central PA here. I had to buy TP over the weekend, was running out. There was plenty and a variety. There was a run on eggs tho, they were on sale for $1 per dozen. Store could barely keep them on the shelf. I bought 2 dozen. Didn’t notice hand sanitizer, don’t use the stuff. Soap works fine. I’ll go out and do my weekly shopping this weekend. Things seem pretty normal around here, so I don’t expect any problems, unless it snows. Then all hell will break loose and you won’t be able to make french toast.
I’m thinking of investing in tulips. They might be hoarded next. :)
No run on stores yesterday. I expect run on stores to start today in SC
No... just went to Dollar General for bread, milk and a new broom and there was plenty of everything. So I got a pack of toilet paper since I was getting low. I think the shortages are more likely to be in liberal areas.
Now, let the weatherman announce a tropical depression on the way and then the shelves will clear...
I was down to 3 rolls so I went to purchase my usual amount. A lady was also purchasing some she was on her phone had 3 packs of 24 in her cart. She said even though the virus doesn’t make you use the bathroom more she was getting 3 packs
Shelves were jam-packed full. No shortages of anything that I could tell. Enough toilet paper to dry up a small lake.
Just not seeing the panic in these parts (NYC suburban area).
A neighbor in Ventura texted me yesterday that she went to 3 stores and no TP. I told her there is a janitorial supply house right down the road from her hubby’s shop/biz that I’m sure has plenty but they’ll have to buy a case. lol For years I bought my tp by the commercial case. I don’t do that anymore but I still buy at least 10 double roll 12 packs at a time so I’m stocked.
Hurry and rush down to all stores and buy up boat loads.
You are going to need everything and lots of it.
Hell, a couple of more posts by me like this and I may just cure the national debt....
