Quaranteen does not mean you cannot order goods from eshops.

Amazon, Walmart and Target have reported they are running very low and running out!

Things were built differently, just like wood fire places.

Help me with the hermeneutics here, brother Sabretooth. Are you implying that there have been fireplaces built of ... wood? Y'know, TP is made of wood, too.

Well, I didn't quite want to get personal, .... but there it is!
But that is getting all of you wet, when only a part of you is dirty...

I think there is a fear factor wrapped up in a roll. I know for myself, living in earthquake country, my biggest fear is sitting on the toilet and an earthquake hits. I also have dreams of trying to find a place to do my business with no success! I could go on...haaaa. Toilet paper is comforting.

Good point.

Most homes (here) don't have fireplaces. We are entirely reliant on natural gas systems.

I don't know how to say this, but it would seem kind of 'anal' to worry about anal hygiene while, at the same time, being a person who doesn't take a shower or bath (even if at least 2 or 3 times a week). Surely, this isn't how some of the various 'survivalist' go about their daily routines, is it?

Do you think these same folks have ever heard of handkerchiefs?
I had to think about that one for a minute. Maybe that's what they should be buying.

Sssh... a secret: you do not have to shower or even shampoo your head, chest and back if you only used a toilet... but do not tell anyone.

Well, run a hose from the back yard into the bathroom!

I probably should have placed used a 'useful' icon on your post here, but I couldn't help but chuckle, so I put the smiley on there instead. Yes, a hose is, and in this day, could prove to be a very useful thing.

I was at the supermarket and to my horror found they had no toilet paper. I hobbled over to the help desk and in double quick time the guy found me a pack.

You can imagine how embarrassing it was struggling back to the toilet with my pants round my ankles.

So, why the toilet paper frenzy, among anything? Are there really that many panicky, survivalist minded people in the U.S.? Seriously? C'mon!
I'll trade you some TP for some 9 mm ammo. 20 sheets per round. :)

Well..................I am out of ammo at the moment--which is why I still have my toilet paper.
Hmmmm. Let me think about this. :eheh:

Oh it's news level if it weren't for all the other big news. I saw 2 grocery stores Friday afternoon where there was no parking and cars idling, waiting... The 3rd, walmart, was just at a Saturday average (weekly peak) level though, no problem parking.

Many bare shelves.

Cereal, bread, peanut butter, bottled water, cleaning supplies.... I overheard someone say loudly across to someone "ain't no more soap"

But they will mostly all get restocked soon I bet.
