Grocers stockpiling food and cleaning supplies.

I just noticed today that I'm about to finish up the 6 pack of good toilet paper I had when all the hoarding started.

I didn't even have to get into my back up supply of the cheap stuff. [emoji16]

There is lots of John Wayne TP in jobsite orange condos.

Lol! Well they are the mega rolls that are very common these days. The package has some of that new toilet paper math on it. 6=24 rolls.

HAHA, I missed the "pack" part.

Grocers can only stock what they’ve got storage to handle which won’t add much.

My impression is they are adding storage capacity and beefing up e-commerce.

You have only used 6 rolls of toilet paper since March? I suggest a Dr. visit...

The 2 women in my home use 6 rolls a week I think!!

Two women in this household too and YEP

Basic business practices require inventory turnover. Sitting on inventory rarely makes sense.

I chalk this up as rumor until I see independent confirmation.

The only food that I have a 'stockpile' of is instant oatmeal. It keeps a long time, is easy to prepare, and is filling. It may not be what I want to eat for every meal, but it sure beats nothing.

I guess that there are different measures for 'stockpiling'. I almost always have enough foodstuffs to last 2 to 3 months (not counting the oatmeal). I have some friends that consider 'stockpiling' as having 3 or 4 days worth of food. Hopefully, it'll never get to the point of needing to utilize my pile.

I’m going to send my wife to Barber School before the next wave hits. Last time she cut my hair she was crying laughing......that’s never a good sign.

Holy crap, I was into man bun length of hair before getting a hair cut months after this crap started.
Three months into the second cut. Got it done Thursday.

Two freezers (filled with game and fish) and one fridge in the garage (beer), Residential Fridge and personal fridge(beer box) in the Rv, Residential fridge in the house. All full of what is required to survive the nothing that is going to happen, but it's cool stocking it.
