Went to Sam's today. The paper goods section is next to breads and the bakery. 

 

I could not believe it. A large portion of the bread section was gone. It was replaced by toilet paper. They had MANY different brands and MANY different configurations of toilet paper. You walked down the isle. It was toilet paper on the left and toilet paper on the right. And stacked up higher than me. Plus they had toilet paper on the end caps. They are prepared.

 

Watch the next hording craze will not be toilet paper.

@drizzellla.  It'll probably be bread.

We only had a problem getting TP the 1st few months. After that we have always been able to get it. Maybe because one of the brands, Angel Soft, is made locally. Don't be fooled by the name Angel Soft, it is like using sandpaper.

Oh my goodness!  I learned this last year when the husband brought home some of that Angel Soft (or, should I say Angel "Soft") and gave me half for my bathroom.

 

Not only is it not soft but it's soooooooo thin!  I was really glad when I got through that and moved back to some decent tp!  Smiley Happy

@Kachina624 , nah. Bread will be $15/loaf real soon so there will be plenty on store shelves.

 

People will be baking again by Easter so get your flours and yeast before that disappears.

This is great news. I've been limiting my liquids because we all know what goes in must come out. Now I can drink to my heart's content without fear. Life is good! Smiley Very Happy

IKR?  Call me a TP snob, but it's only Charmin for me and always has been!

Tapioca is very difficult to find and when you do people are  jacking up the price on Amazon.  I heard it was due to a drought but who knows if that is true. I use  it in fruit pies . It thickens  the pie and adds sweetness so less sugar is needed. I know I can use flour or cornstarch but I don't think the pie tastes as good.

Thanks for the laugh -- I needed it. Soon, toilets will be displayed next to it.
