I just don't get the toilet paper thing. Deep breaths (at a proper social distance) is the way to go. How will that clean your butt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question. I was proposing general relaxation before the panic hits that one has to go out and buy as much toilet paper as they can. Seriously, I get the shortage of sanitizers and disinfectants but is the toilet paper thing about the possibility of being isolated in your home and not being able to get to the store? And btw, good luck Slick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the Bay Area you have panicking Silicon Valley folks driving an hour+ to clean out targets and Costcos. I was at Nob Hill, a grocery store, and all the meats, baking good, onions, pasta sauces & pastas were completely gone. I spoke to a couple of the folks on staff and they said a lot folks from the Mountain View area, North County, came down and wiped out the store. It was also like that at Safeway and many other stores in the area. You know it’s crazy when you can find black beans dried or otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I bought boston butts for smoking, a honey cured ham, some other food staples... And enough beer for a month. DONE! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty, plenty of ice cream. And I took advantage of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that should last me several weeks or months. I was about to reload on these supplies right before everyone apparently went nuts for TP. My plan is to keep an eye out on the paper products area whenever I go to the grocery store. So far there has been none. But at some point, I gotta think the great TP scare of 2020 is going to level off. Unless the people who loaded up go back for seconds. I don't know-- it is not a huge worry for me -- or any of the other items honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
