My wife and I were talking last night about the TP and sanitizer craziness... And bottled water. Doesn't make any sense - there's no indication whatsoever that tap water will be infected or unavailable, but people are buying it by the truckload. I do my grocery shopping late at night. Normally the Kroger near me is empty - maybe 3-4 people in the store (besides the employees) that time of night. Walmart is busier of course but most aisles are empty of customers. I went for my run last night. Kroger wasn't packed, but it was busy. All self check machines were occupied and most everyone was buying at least one full cart of bottled water, some had two full carts. Walmart was so busy they had a regular register open in addition to the self check machines and it was the same - people buying bulk. No bread or rice left in the store, most everyone with a cart full of bottled water.

Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

With all the hoarding going on at the local Kroger, They’re limiting the purchases of all items to three per persons and two by next week.
Yea , that does not count when you have adult family members living under the same roof........go figure
My morning rant is over
Carry on Take all ambulatory adults and have each get their own cart. Problem solved. Trick the man.

I went to Lowe’s this afternoon and they had lots of TP. I didn’t even know they carried it. Just happened to walk by it.

The same idiots hoarding all the stuff will be the same idiots complaining when the price jacks up after all this craziness is over. Do they think Kimberley Clark and others are just going to eat the loss from all the overtime pay ?

No, but I’ve walked the back nine with one sock.

Eventually all the idiots will be done panic buying and the shelves will refill and then I’ll go buy groceries. Until then, we have plenty of stuff. I just don’t get the hoarding. They’re not gonna stop manufacturing TP or anything else. Why make a run on it and buy it all? It literally makes no sense. I guess people think we will have road blocks set up preventing us from going anywhere and we’ll all be confined to our houses for months on end? I mean, a 24 roll pack of TP will last my family of 4 quite awhile and I have two teenage daughters who use TP like there’s no tomorrow. I still have 6-7 rolls left so we’re good for over a week. Idiots
