Went shopping at my upscale supermarket today and was shocked to see the toilet paper shelves virtually empty. All that remained were a few single rolls of Scott's (most expensive). I would have thought that my upscale, liberal, yuppie fellow customers were more aware.
Oh well. :(

I'm kinda shocked you're shocked bc this is what ppl have been talking about for 2 weeks now.

My dad & bro were smart & stocked up back in January bc we knew the coronavirus would have an impact & so we got ready when it was calm.

edit
Oh wait it's bc you're older & probably not on social media. Nm, I figured out why you're shocked. Ok, I hope you can find some TP!!!!!!

I already had most of a 12-pack I bought some time ago. Also I have to admit that we have an entire case of 96 rolls in the apartment building that I manage. :D

We got our quarterly supply in a couple of weeks ago. My wife has what ever brand it is she likes delivered from online, as I said, quarterly or so. Our local store shelves have been blown out all week, flushable baby/personal wipes too.

You must not have females living w you bc if you did there's just no way you'd feel like you were prepared bc of a 12 pack.

Ok you can kinda blame my dad & brother for the shortage bc no joke that's the brand they stocked up on in January. I don't think it was bc of preference, just that it was there. We have a huge basement so we just keep stuff in a storage room there.
