I happened to restock right before the panic. Like a day or two before. We were good. By the time I had to re-up the panic was over.

I still have some ratchet arse scott brand tp that I bought back then just in case. It sits at the camp now, waiting for someone to be desperate enough to use it.

I merely went to the nearest Walgreens.
Papermills operated at 800% of nameplate capacity in 2020. They made serious bank but had extensive repairs afterwards

I bought a single roll of TP that was some Mexican brand I had never seen before or since, and the shortage ended before I used it.

Was never an issue, my wife bought in bulk before it was cool.

We bought some at costco two or three weeks before the pandemic.
Pretty much the same for the wife and myself. We are "empty nesters" and it was a non-issue for us.
That's so far back I don't have a lot of memories on it except for us not going anywhere to speak of.

I was a toilet paper hipster who stocked up before it was the “cool” thing to do.
Took me over a year to get my non perishable food stores to just be on my pantry shelves again.

I remember standing in that silly line with 6 ft. spacing between customers outside the store to get in since they had people with counters at the door keeping track of the number of customers in the store at any given time.
I'd see people leaving with those flatbed shopping carts with a dozen or so 30 pack rolls of toilet paper stacked on top of about the same amount of bottled water.
I just laughed at the idiots. It finally got to the point the store had someone monitoring the toilet paper and putting a limit on how many packages you could buy.

Went to all the local stores to find some and everyone was pretty much wiped out (pun intended). After two weeks of running low, I went to a janitorial supply company website; can't remember if it was Uline, WB Mason or Grainger and ordered a case of Cottonelle. It showed up 2 days later.
No worries about TP until the craze ended a couple months later.

Ended up buying a case of those huge truck stop jumbo rolls. Not great quality but we didn’t come close to running out and still have plenty for the next pandemic.

I bought one of those cheap bidet seat attachments off of Amazon because of it. We don't have an outlet near our toilet, so it's one of those that doesn't have temperature control. A cold day can really give you a jolt in the morning, but it's nice on warmer days.

If you had an account with Sysco, there was no shortage

What was your experience of the Great toilet paper shortage of 2020
We had a year's worth of TP supply as a fluke before covid. We didn't have to buy TP until 2021.

Stark illustration of the stupidity of people. In the event there is some kind of global catastrophe, the method of wiping one's arse would be the last thing on a person's mind, one would think, plus the fact there are plenty of other options that can be sufficiently used.
