Last week I showed up in the late afternoon and all of the TP was long gone. Today I got there as they opened and found that most everyone already had a package on their cart. I checked out at 10:11 and this was all that was left. Maybe they’ve got more in the back, but this should last me through the fall, provided I keep my chili intake to a minimum...

Yeah I thought the craziness ended since Costcos had put up notices saying they weren’t going to accept returns on TP/sanitizer and maybe some other things.

I bought a package of Coscto butt paper way back at the very beginning of all this, even before the Great Hoarding began. I still haven’t opened it yet, and we are a family of five. Those people who bought four or five (or more) of these things will have enough toilet paper to last them a lifetime.

How is this still a thing? It’s always fully stocked at my local stores.

Not around here. Most grocery stores, if they have any TP at all, have single rolls of the cheap stuff at 4 for $3.

I bought some back in January, and whilst I still have a two six packs left, I figure that this problem isn’t going away anytime soon so I might as well stock up while the price is normal and I have an extra $17 in my pocket.

It;s pretty much gone back to normal around here in the last week.

We talk about this TP phenomenon, but how much butt wiping was taking place using TP from big rolls that are now sitting in custodial closets?

I have a crazy relative in florida that bought @6 of these in march. Mid april they slipped to my aunt, they had already gone through 2 packs and worried how long this was going to last. after a bit of prodding her and her husband, use a roll a day each.
W hen this started someone posted how the average person was calculated at 1/2 a roll a day , and I thought that seemed high. I think its really skewed by super wipers.

There’s been ample supply around here for weeks now, even name brands.
However, I was in podunk last week, and TP was pretty sparse, just a little generic and no name brands.
