May I interest you in a bidet?
Jokes aside, that fucking sucks. Also, seriously a Bidet might be worth consideration.

I bought a giant box on Amazon this week because we were down to 6 rolls. Wag, if ya need some TP I'll meet you on the pike somewhere.
I'm not hoarding, my wife literally goes thru more TP when she pees than I do when I poop. It's such a mystery to me.

Recovering from back surgery- I still can't drive someone was out shopping for me. I live kind of in the boonies anyways. I'll just pay more and buy from Amazon.
I can see price gouging on essentials coming very soon.
It's the weirdest thing to me... went to the grocery store yesterday as per normal and there wasn't any toilet paper, and that was about the only thing out of stock. I didn't even remember that people were hoarding or worrying about it until I rounded the corner and every shelf was bare.
This is just outside of Phoenix.

You joke, but I just ordered one next-day delivery from Amazon.
I didn't realize this was a thing until I went into the store the other day and the aisle was pretty bare. Not completely bare, because apparently the only TP of choice during a pandemic is Charmin.
Yeah this has been going on outside of America for weeks now. Toilet paper, soap, female sanitary products, dried foods
We are basically doubling on everything we can during our trips to the store, trying to ride the fine line between hoarder and prepared. We'll see if there is any TP left in the Quad Cities when I go out in an hour.
The Walmart near my work was completely cleaned out. Paper towels were running scarce too... so I suspect folks are planning to improvise.
I feel like also hearing that it has happened just compounds the problem. People thinking "Oh I should buy extra this time just incase people start going crazy over it here as well".
Wash cloth and soap works just as well, if not better.
I might have to wash towels more, but I'm not concerned.

Not even going to front, paper towels have done the job in a pinch
Which is going to cause a lot of plumbing back up. This will be bad!
There were still tons of paper towels, and I saw the grocery store had setup a display of regular tissue for blowing noses right there and a couple were quietly discussing things before grabbing a few boxes.
Not sure how well that would hold up, but I'm sure it'd at least feel softer than paper towels.
Were American, dude. How you seen how we eat? We gotta wipe til it hurts.
Was at a Walmart in Louisville last night and took pics of the tp isle. Barley any left and what was left were already busted open and missing some. Paper towel isle was getting there as well. Also noticed the cleaning supply isle was missing alot of bleach and other stuff like that.
This brought back terrible memories of my childhood. What you know about yellow pages?
The psychology behind panic-buying – DW – 03/11/2020
People are bulk-buying toilet paper, pasta, soap, tinned foods and disinfectant. Those who have come away empty-handed are asking themselves why so many people panic-buy? DW asked INSEAD's Andy Yap what's behind it.
