Haven’t been in a week or so. But everyone is talking like the stores are all out of everything. Stopped at Wendy’s drive thru on the way home and asked for extra napkins just in case. Every bit helps.

Can confirm. Just left publix. Aisle wiped of TP.

Workers were apologizing to some people for whatever reason.

I chuckled as I walked by with my beer, peanut butter and frozen pizza

I've been to Publix like 3 times in the past 3 days

TP is picked over, but there are plenty of packs left. Now today the meat section and frozen foods are getting hit hard. Honestly, poultry section is second only to hand sanitizer at my store, it's just empty right now.

Yes, and hand sanitizer, paper towels, and rubbing alcohol.

Who needs tp when you have a shower?

Just shite as you shower and crush it down the drain with your foot.

People aren't really pooping more than they normally do, so the TP should return to the shelves fairly soon, right?

That is assuming the TP factory stays online.

I live a town of less than 10,000 and every store in town is out of tp. I’m legit out, I’m not just hoarding. I guess every shite means it’s shower time

Luckily I'm kind of a food hoarder as is. I usually hit Sam's and buy a bunch of meat and vac seal it twice a year. Also buy pasta, dry beans, can stuff, etc in bulk.

We are pretty good on food already, but I did have my wife pic up some more frozen veggies and cheeses. Stuff we usually buy fresh weekly.

Yes. Hand sanitizer, isopropyl alcohol, Lysol, rice, and canned goods are getting harder to restock.

Drug shortages are also a thing.

The only one I found was in the return pile at Wal-Mart. So I grabbed it and held on to it like it was gold.

Had the wife also pick up some PGA alcohol cause we had no luck with rubbing alcohol or handsantizer. Figure I can always make some mixed drinks later if it turns out to be all for not.

I got a few tubs of protein powder. If stores run out of food I'll just go on a cut for a month or so!
