Toilet Paper Grrrrrrr

[debidoo]

When I read don't hoard toilet paper there is going to be no shortage of it I should have gone right out and stockpiled a bunch because I am now resorting to doing some major conservation efforts on what I do have available.  I go early to my store tomorrow in a reserved time for senior citizens so I am hoping and praying I can at least get one package.  LOL 66 years old and have always used as much TP as I wanted.  Are any of you low stocked on TP?

Currently we seem to be stocked.  BUT, with 4 in the house, we do go through it. 
I would think that if everyone would stop stockpiling/hoarding tp, the supply would right itself in a short time.

If we do run out, I have kleenex tissues to help us out.

If it gets continually worse, I imagine I can cut up old t-shirts and go back in time to when we had babies in cloth diapers.  Rinse, soak, wash, reuse.

Here's a calculator to help you to determine how long you have until you run out.

We schedule our toilet paper purchases, from Costco, once every three months at which time we purchase their largest pack. We were scheduled to buy toilet paper on March first-not even realizing how bad it was. We still had a month's worth of toilet paper but we are creatures of habit. I ordered a twelve pack of crummier toilet paper (White cloud) at a three hundred percent markup on eBay. We also have a tight knit group of friends that has kept track of when items are delivered to the stores and a few have even bribed clerks in order to have advance notice on shipments. I also have an old client/friend that is a regional manager for Walmart and he has kept me in the loop. Last week my wife was able to get a twelve pack of cottonelle and I picked up a twelve pack of Charmin so we are close enough to our regular stash. We also stocked up on dry goods and put together two grocery packages for our kids.

We got the last medium-sized box of toilet paper from an online office supply site. This was, of course, after we couldn't find any at the grocery store because of the hoarders and those wanting to sell the rolls for five bucks a pop. Here's hoping you get the toilet paper you need tomorrow morning! I'll be thinking about you!

We had a decent back stock before all of this went down, so I think we'll be ok. Feel bad for those people who are running short though!

LMAO! I can't believe someone made a site to track how long toilet paper will last! This will probably help some people out, though.

I pray that you will be able to get something in soon.  I had a stockpile already.  I would pick up extras  on an
ongoing bases in an effort to not run out

Hopefully, you are able to find some; we have had the same problem in our area. We are ok in our house; only because when I shopped in the pass and saw stufff like that on sale I would just pick up an extra pack. Thank goodness, it is just my hubby and i in the house so we should be okay. Stores in our now have a limit on how much each customer can purchase on the hot bucket items like toilet tissue, paper towels etc.. to make sure everyone can get what they need; but sometimes it is still hard.

Stores here have a limit, hope to buy some things we need tomorrow.

My family and I were overseas on vacation when the crisis hit, I asked my cousin to buy me some toilet paper if she found some, since I was not home.  She purchased a 24 roll pack.  But we are 4 in my house and my oldest daughter lives in her own apartment with her husband, son and a roommate.  We were all overseas, so now we are hunting for toilet paper ourselves, with 7 people we need quite a bit of it, my husband and I go every morning to Target, as soon as the opened and but a pack each (the limit you to 1 pack per person) sometimes are packs of 6 rolls sometimes packs of 9 rolls, and split them between us and my daughter's household.  My daughter is a nurse and she works every morning can't make it on time.  Her husband is home but has no car to move around and with a 4 years old at home I rather he stays home.  The roommate also works for health system and has to work mornings, So here I am trying to hoard as much toilet paper as I can for 2 households.

Also, stores are been ridiculous, my husband got the last pack of 9 rolls of Charmin and paid $20 for it, they should do something about Gouging prices,  Granted Charmin is expensive but not $20 worth of it.

I wish people would be consider it of others, I go to Costco every other day but have not been lucky to get from them.  1 of those would be very helpful for my family.

Yes - I'll be low setocked soon.  I checked one store the other day - none there.  Like you, I may go during the early senior hours in hopes of getting some.  I don't want to get in a serious situation!

Ok Update, I went to Costco this morning with my youngest daughter, she has her own membership thru College, and hold and behold, they has Tons of TP, the lady said they had just received the shipment, of course, as it should be, they are limiting 1 per member, so I took one for my house and my daughter took 1 for my oldest daughter house, with this we should be good for a few weeks, which is good for me.  I never tough the day would come when I need it to hoard TP!
