The dockworkers strike that has shut down dozens of ports on the East and Gulf Coasts has reportedly triggered panic buying of toilet paper and paper towels at a Costco on Staten Island — despite experts’ insistence that paper products won’t be affected by the strike.
Video footage on Wednesday showed vast, empty shelves of toilet paper, paper towels and facial tissues. One segment posted by FreedomNews.TV shows just a few pallets of Kleenex at the Costco on Richmond Avenue near the Staten Island Mall.

I am not worried. The last time I couldn’t buy toilet paper I just used the free Phoenix New Times paper to wipe with.
No cat food, just eat the cats before they get thin.
What’s REALLY stupid is the panic buyers stripped a California Costco of all its bottled water. My friend was there to witness it. It’s because of people that stupid that Gavin Knew-some is in office.
“Empty already , really ? LOL”
Preemptive panic.

Kirkland T paper is made in the US and Canada
Go to O’Reilly’s get a bag of rags for five bucks, rinse, repeat.
In the U.S., Kirkland toilet paper is harvested and manufactured not too far from Kirkland, Washington, the birthplace of Costco itself and the namesake of the Kirkland brand. Kirkland toilet paper is sourced from Canada’s boreal forest and processed within Canada before it hits Costco locations worldwide.
Where is Charmin toilet paper manufactured?
Mehoopany, Pennsylvania
Where Does Charmin Toilet Paper Come From? The company Procter & Gamble gets about 33% of the pulp needed to make toilet paper as well as other hygiene products from Canada’s boreal forest. The product is manufactured in the United States. The company’s largest factory is located in Mehoopany, Pennsylvania.
People are dumb...
Maybe we should let AI wipe us out.
It’s October!
Surprise!!!
Woohoo!! October Surprise!!!
I GOT MINE!
Now that we see what is REALLY important to people, Trump should announce FREE toilet paper for everyone if elected.
Stupid libtards. If you have nothing to eat you don’t shit so no need for TP.
I don’t think TP is made overseas - but lots of stuff will start to experience shortages after 2-3 weeks.
The absolute silence from Fed.gov should be very worrying. It shows there’s a big rift within the Democrat Party and DC deep-state on this.
>> Wipe with your hands. It’s the will of Allah.
🤣
What does moe hamhead (piss be upon him!) teach concerning wiping with pages torn from a koran?
The good news is that more and more people are growing aware of being prepared, the more households with some supplies, the better.
The misguided toilet paper panic just reveals that people are very aware of the problems of a household without it, the problems would be huge but it would sure be great for plumbers.
I sure love the timing, hope this strike lasts for a while.
I ran over last night since it was already making the rounds here yesterday and yep, our in Queen Creek, AZ. (I knew before I entered because none of the carts leaving the store had either product & at least 75% of people usually get one or the other.
I have heard the theory that this is designed to get bad and have Harris ride in to save the day.
Nah, I think this is Biden’s revenge. He could have stopped this and, instead, is letting this ride to sink Harris.
NO....How about they are BOTH IMCOMPETENT, OVER THEIR HEADS, BOOBS!
>> Kirkland toilet paper is harvested
TP is harvested??!? No sh!t??? I did not know that! I have seen it in trees but I never suspected...
>> Maybe we should let AI wipe us out.
No pun intended, yeah? 😂
