Oh my! I went to Costco last night because I usually go there every three or four months and stock up on bar soap, coffee kitchen dish soap, kleenex, napkins, papertowels, laundry soap AND TOILET PAPER.  My favorite brand is SCOTT. Lo and behold, there was ONLY the Costco brand of toilet paper and people were standing in line waiting for water. The paper towel stock was low. I got other things I needed, minus Irish Spring soap, also what they were out of and went on to Target. They had the soap but only ONE larger than a four pack of Scott Toilet paper. I bought it. I then went in a Giant Food Store close to it and they only had ONE larger than a 6 pack of Scott Toilet Paper. The shelves were so bare!  

I mean, of ALL The things for stores to be low on.. MY FAVORITE BRAND OF TOILET PAPER!! I just called another store close to where I work and they don't have it either!!!

I generally don't order things on line in order to keep brick and mortar stores in business but I am about to order a bunch of Scott Toilet Paper.

 

I would suspect this is all linked to the Coronavirus.

I don’t care if you get a bidet, and I was mostly being humorous, but the ones most people talk about here simply replace the toilet seat, so space isn’t likely to be an issue. These aren’t the separate fixtures that were once common in Europe. Bathroom cleaning is a completely different matter, and I know better than to get in the middle of that.

KMiller:  This is crazy. I decided to do a bunch of errands Friday night after work and went BACK to Costco. I headed right to the toilet paper/paper towels section. After saying EXCUSE ME about thirty times to get around the huge line of people that were waiting for WATER!!! and blocking the path, I made it to the section.. I was all ready to pick up ONE BIG package of the Costco Brand (Kirkland) Toilet Paper based on your reccomendation and guess what???? THERE WAS NO TOILET PAPER OR PAPER TOWELS IN THE WHOLE STORE!!!

 

anyhow, I back tracked over to Target again and just bought two more four packs of Scott TP to add to my small collection at home.

I think I'll wait till next Friday and do a quick run around of the stores and see if any restocked and if not, either go on line and order big packages or just pay the extra money for the four or six or eight packs. It's just at that small an amount it comes to about ONE DOLLAR a roll!! whereas if you get the giant packs you wind up saving a lot. However... The lack of toilet paper hits me in my comfort zone like no other item except water!!

 

 (and coffee and good scotch.. lol).


cheers!!

I went to Walmart, Target and our local Costco today and not one roll of toilet paper of any kind could be found in any of them. Thank God my wonderful sister went to the local Sam's Club, who just received a shipment of toilet paper, and got 2 huge multi pks ( that all each person was allowed) . When I told her I couldn't get any paper she gave me one of her multi pks. Oh, I checked Costco and Amazon earlier and both were out of stock. I'm sure this is all a temporary situation but it's been a bit unnerving today. Scott you are right, kidding or not, it is a good reason to consider a bidet. Stay healthy all.
