Idiots are hoarding toilet paper because?

Men are at home & helping with the laundry

Because when can't afford gold or silver, toilet paper is the only option if you find some.

People are still hoarding. Because they're reeruns.

I just finished a roll of TP that I started 20 days ago. I checked this morning and I have 44 rolls of TP. I haven't bought any TP since the beginning of February. At this rate I have enough TP for 132 WEEKS.

People are stupid.

Not where I live.

I was at Ralphs this morning. The meat and cheese refrigerated sections were bare, as they've been since the beginning of March.

The paper aisle is completely empty. No toilet paper, no disinfectant wipes, no bleach, no nothing. It's been like this for weeks in Los Angeles, unless you're lucky enough to be at the store when the truck is unloaded. Costco has a limit of one per customer, as do all of the other retailers and it's still completely unavailable on Amazon, Costco, Target and Walmart.com's.

The shortage exists because tens of millions of people are used to using the restroom at work, not at home but now, all of those people are just buying TP when it's available; they're definitely NOT hoarding it.

It’s interesting to hear who has been out of what.

My corner store has stayed well stocked with meat the whole time. Especially the meat cut in the store.

But has been out of flour, rice and tortillas for weeks. Finally had to go to a different store to get some.

It’s krazy to me that with all of the incredible wealth in your area, the supply chain wouldn’t shift heavily in favor of reinforcing it... sincere best wishes bro, gah I’d ****ing HATE being in Hollywood right now

If they allowed supply and demand, er, price gouging to work the magic of the market place, it would.

[Cntrygal]

I work at Menards, and people are still grabbing stuff as fast as we can get it on the shelves.... it's crazy.

There is NO accounting for panic.

Went out for supplies for the FIRST time yesterday. Into Aldis for milk, eggs, butter, etc. In and out.

But the funny thing was the Dollar Tree. Now there's a particular Dollar Tree that happens to get primo baked goods on occasion. I went the little extra distance to check it out. Picked up 5 loaves of Dave's Killer Bread, and a pack of Natures Way Broiche buns, . . . for $1 apiece.

The place was [relatively] packed, and people were grabbing all the paper and Clorox handi-wipes they could [there was a new shipment, and there were purchase limits]. Not a person picked up bread.

Earlier, over at the Aldis, the 'cheap-ass' $1.75 a loaf bread was picked clean.

Had Aldis delivered yesterday through Instacart. $100 netted 5 bags of groceries and a large flat of food. Wife picked up TP, paper towel, and dishwasher pods at Target curbside. Feel we’re good for the next 4-6 weeks.

The one thing I can’t find are scrubbing bubbles flushable wand refills, which is a minor annoyance.

Yeah it’s just amazing how much more your dollar buys at Aldi, if they could only get more specialty products I wouldn’t bother going anywhere else

I love those things and I am out too. See, we have something in common. BTW Target usually carries them.

[OrtonsPiercedTaint]

Flour products are the new TP
