If You Need TP It's Coming

Truck driver posted this on FB

These are tractor trailers lined up in Albany, GA at the Proctor & Gamble plant for toilet paper.

This is what I was looking at after I got loaded and was trying to leave their property.

P&G supplies most of the country in toilet paper.

This is ridiculous already

@Nightowlz

Crazy, but I'm laughing...

Makes me think of that old song Convoy...

"Cause we got a little ol' convoy
Rockin' through the night
Yeah, we got a little ol' convoy
Ain't she a beautiful sight?...

@Nightowlz If you changed those trucks to hand carts and stacked them with TP, that was what was in my BJ's Wednesday.

Why??? I don't get it.

Well, at least that's one industry that is thriving right now!

How long do you think all that will last on the shelves?😄

I hope when it gets to the stores they limit how much each person can buy.
Otherwise the hoarders will go buy it all again.

Is this akin to the heroic horse cavalry riding in from over the hill?

Sorta reminds me of that famous Willie Nelson song--On The Road Again.........

On the road again.

Can't wait to get on the road again

_________

Does this mean that Georgia is the toilet paper capital of the U.S., and Procter and Gamble rules the land?

It's an old saying that "he who holds the gold makes the rules".

TP is the new gold, I guess.

I hope they each have a police escort. Their cargo is more precious than gold right now! 🤣

Get it while you can. They said since people are still panicking supplies are off the shelves as soon as stock comes in.

I think everyone will continue to do this because they don't know what's going to happen.

I'm sure there will be limits but think it will still go fast.

I hope we ger some soon & I can get some before the hoarders buy more. I am about out. May need to knock on neighbors door to see if I can borrow a roll until I get some.

@Nightowlz

Nope! With only 2 of us in our home and buying in bulk at Costco, we have enough to last us for many months, and the same with paper towels, which I seldom use. I prefer using microfiber to clean up things and them throw them in the washing machine. Saves paper and saves money, I think!

@CLHS68

If you were next door I would give you some. We have plenty.

TP is on sale where I live...no shortage, no limits & no panic buying.

@Nightowlz Thank you that is very kind.

@kitcat51

I don't know if we have much panic buying or not. We did not when I was out Mon. Half the tp was gone but heard it was empty a few days later.

Wal-mart still had most everything stocked. No lysol, no clorox wipes. They did have lysol liquid cleaner & clorox.

I'm staying home now unless I really need something.

I guess you are not living among hyena's like the rest of us

Maybe, we should all move there!

@Witchy Woman Always loved that song.....had forgotten about it. Was popular back in the day I drove (trips) after dark and had my CB on - chatting with the truckers. 10-4 good buddy - this is my Exit so signing off....keep your bottom side down (undercarriage of truck)
