Ok, people, I didn't come up in the days of 'shortages'...and I've read/heard so many people say they can't find toliet paper anywhere !  What is your back up plan???

[kaydee50]

We have enough so no worries here!

@sarahpanda Since we don't get the Sears catalog anymore, I would suggest seed catalogs.  Also, we still have lots of oak leaves on the ground here in PA.

@kaydee50 I bet that felt good to get that out there. Congratulations

To answer the OP's question, I figure if it gets to that there are always napkins, paper towels etc. Since then aren't flushable I'd put it in a plastic grocery bag and take it out to the trash or even installing a bidet. 

TP didn't always exist and is not used everywhere now.

I've yet to understand the run (😜) on toilet paper!!! Digestive issues are not a system of this virus & people usually don't stock up to this extent on a normal grocery trip...even during snow storm predictions.

@PA Mom-mom  We have lots of magazines, but I assume TP will eventually show up in stores and will be rationed so people can't hoard.

I've heard of people making TP from the same material used for cloth diapers.  Use and wash.

If you have items that someone else might need--say paper towels-- and the other person has plenty of TP--just swap.

If we go thru our TP stash, then we move on to the burnable options; Kleenex, baby wipes, fast food napkins, paper towels, and last resort is old T-shirt’s torn into rags.

A friend of mine who watches mainstream news. (She watches so I don't have to. LOL), and the media "suggested" it. I'm not sure who she was listening to b/c she can't stand watching that much tv either.

I don't understanding the hoarding unless they plan on selling it themselves.

@RedTop   Hey, rags are washable. Gross, but remember cloth diapers and diaper service before God invented Pampers? Oooh! Pampers may be a choice...XL Toddler.
