Just got back from the local grocery store in a large city. Plenty of paper towels and tissues. Toilet paper was out, but it apparently just ran out because when I got there I saw multiple people checking out with toilet paper. And this was around noon, so it wasn't like first-thing in the morning or anything. There were still some shortages of food, but not that bad and there was still plenty of meat, pasta, canned goods, etc. Other than toilet paper, I think handsoap and rice were the only things that were out. Definitely in much better shape than Friday when I went to the same store.
The panic really hit last Thursday/Friday, when sports leagues and everything else shut down. The past weekend was the first weekend of panic which is why everything was swiped off the shelves. But now that the hoarders have hoarded what they need to hoard, it seems that the panic is already dying out.
Also reminder that hoarders will hang. People will remember who decided to buy 3-years worth of toilet paper.
This virus is a nothing burger. Its not happening. It will be over by june.
Carter Williams
I just went out this morning and all the shelves are empty when everything looked normal a few days ago. My grandparents need toilet paper just for regular use and cant find any, blows my mind. The stores around you might have stuff on the shelves now that people have either already stocked up or arent buying into the news. I just want some ramen and i cant find any you fuckers
Nathan Taylor
Is there a website where you can advertise hand sanitizer re-sellers?
Jeremiah Harris
In a capitalist system shortages are short lived

>Also reminder that hoarders will hang. People will remember who decided to buy 3-years worth of toilet paper. You know what? Fuck people like you, dipshit. People like you are the same fucking assholes who made fun of people like me all the years we stored and "hoarded" toilet paper and other supplies, and laughed at us, and called us "preppers". OK. And ALL that time we were telling you "dude, you should do it too. It's a serious issue. You should be prepared in case anything happens". And you fucking ignorant faggots laughed at us and said "Hahahaha, you silly, stupid, tinfoil hat wearing right-winger! Ur just dumb! The system will never fail!"
And NOW you turn around and fucking attack us and make fun of us for the AWFUL FUCKING CRIME OF BEING PREPARED?
OK. You know what? Fuck you and fuck your shitty asshole. Guess you can clean that asshole out with your boyfriends dick, because you're clearly a massive faggot. Fuck you, and if I see you in the store and there's one roll of toilet paper left I'll fucking TAKE it just so I know you're going without. And I'll go home, and throw it on my TP pile in my TP room (that's right faggot, I have a whole room of TP, just dedicated to TP) and I'm gonna laugh and smile to myself in the knowledge that even though I didn't need that TP there's at least LESS of it around or motherfucker faggots like yourself.
Jack Baker
If I saw someone like this I'd knock their toilet paper stack off over and over.
Evan Gray
You're full of shit.
Every store is completely empty of everything in TN.

And you fucking ignorant faggots laughed at us and said "Hahahaha, you silly, stupid, tinfoil hat wearing right-winger! Ur just dumb! The system will never fail!" Cuz all that time people like me were just trying to help you out. To give you a heads up to be prepared. You laughed in our faces relentlessly. You're still attacking us now. Fuck you, you decadent 1st world overprivileged slimeball.
Julian Bell
yes, but I went there at noon. On Friday/Saturday, grocery stores were sold out of a lot of products within an hour of opening. Toilet paper was getting sold out literally a few minutes after it was stocked in a lot of stores, yet today they didn't sell out until like 6 hours after they opened. >I just want some ramen and i cant find any you fuckers I don't eat ramen but the lady in front of me had like 50 packs in her cart kek. I do eat a lot of brown rice so I'm pissed that's still out, I have probably a pound left at home for now though. >The stores around you might have stuff on the shelves now that people have either already stocked up or arent buying into the news. Yeah I figure places will only have these shortages for a few days. The people who bought 200 rolls of toilet paper aren't going to be buying toilet paper again for a while, so when stores do get stocked up the supply will last longer. Same with all the other stuff people are hoarding.
Ryan Ramirez
Stores are empty here, I had to barter for pic related this morning (cost roughly 200$) I'm thinking of running out on my family to the cabin and trying to make a go there solo with my dog.
I dont care about hoarding or whatever but what is the deal with TP? A bundle of it lasts me like 6 months. I get that people have kids and all but how much is everyone shitting? (insert fat american joke here)
Jose Price
Canada has been collapsing for years now.
Kayden Phillips
Some people use a lot of it for whatever reason. Then add that if you buy for 3-5 people at once you're only really comfortable when your shopping cart looks like a tower.
Aaron Rogers
>all the years we stored if you were storing it before that's fine. I'm talking about the people who created this current shortage by buying entire carts full of toilet paper in the last week or two. If you had a stock from years ago when there wasn't a shortage then good for you, but if you went out and bought a 3-year supply of toilet paper recently then you are responsible for creating this "shortage" and should hang.
David Perry
The hardest thing for me was telling my gf to stop using so fucking much but shes definitely listening so thats good
Carter Collins
user where is the other half of the cucumber? Is that how you bartered?
The panic is just having a pause. Where I live, everyone under the age of 50 stays insider is at work, while the oldies/boomers are outside basically begging to get Corona chan and dying. I had to yell my two boomer neighbours back into their flat because they wanted to get a cup of coffee at the car mechanic's place down the block. Shit will go south once all hospitals are chock full and the young ones realize that retarded boomers clogged the system by being unbelievably irresponsible.
>if you went out and bought a 3-year supply of toilet paper recently then you are responsible for creating this "shortage" Don't care, got TP for years now.
Samuel Cook
It has barely started, domestic travel will soon be restricted and people will flip shit. Most places haven't even had restaurants close, people will start throwing cans into their carts very fast when they realize they can't rely on takeout anymore.
Carter Turner
Yes it's OK now, but seriously keep an eye on it.
The stocks are shelved, until they're not.
Logan Kelly
The media-indusced panic buying of the human cattle dented the supply chain of goods, and it takes a few days to back fill the supply chain. That's all. Be sure to laugh at those who went on a mad dash to the stores when the shelves are full everywhere this week or the next. I wonder how many of these retards are going to try returning their packs of TP.
Grocery stores are out of beans and rice Testing is a lie. They aren’t testing
Nolan Fisher
I work at a store in a town with about 10k population. we've been busy every day from 7am to 10pm lines out front 7am ordering double the busiest holidays of the year profits have been great but the warehouses are running out grocery trucks are 5 days behind perishable trucks are coming in with 1/3rd of the product wont stop until there's nothing left I guess
Isaac Russell
Can semi-confirm. I live on the outskirts of Nashville and things such as baby wipes, chicken soup, and ramen (lol) are completely gone along with TP. Every employee I've spoken to (mainly Dollar Generals, haven't fucked with Wal-Mart) is insistent that the restock this week will fix the problem. I've also heard that Dollar General Markets are limiting TP purchases to two per customer, but I can't confirm that.
Keep in mind, there's a difference between hoarding and being prepared. Take that for what it's worth.
Mason Campbell
>I'm talking about the people who created this current shortage by buying entire carts full of toilet paper in the last week or two. Those people are just smarter than you. You lost to them. Deal with it, faggot, and next time listen when your betters (people like myself, who are smarter than you) try to give you a heads up and warning to protect yourself.
Why don't you go cry "wah wah wah wah wah wah" with your shitty ass, you weak shitty ass faggot.
Dominic Smith
People are realizing this is a nothingburguer.
Adam Ward
Check gas stations / small shops.
Bentley Carter
It might not be over but it is harmless.
Gabriel Cooper
It was just clearing its throat.
If you don't have your shit together now, you might not get a chance if you can't find fucking supplies. Get at least two weeks of shit together now. If your stores are barren now, then you are fucked. People will return to stores. They will raid. There will be violence. Shit is about to go down.
Liam Garcia
Yes. Everything is fine now. No need to buy anything more. Go back to watching Netflix.
Landon Davis
" I survived Covid19" should be on it. Or something along the lines of "i survived and all i got was 800 rolls of TP"
Cooper White
I always bought in bulk to save money, now that decision may save my life.
Squirt the lime juice in your eye, it will cure the virus
Anthony Taylor
Unprepped faggots will burn for being degenerate wastes of flesh!
Asher Torres
The unbelievers will rue the day they didn't prepare.
Joseph Cruz
People were saying it would be over by April last month
Sebastian Campbell
Water fully stocked today. Agree people seem to be calming down.
Joseph Anderson
toilet paper is all produced domestically so there really should be no shortage anymore unless more people start prepping
Juan Jenkins
This is when the real work begins. Last weeks run on the stores was just a practice run. Dont get caught without when the real run happens.
William Jones
Kek good larp
Dylan Perry
Longer than usual lines at Giant Eagle today. I would say 90% of everything was in stock and available. Dollar Store was busy. No TP at either but did find some at smaller mom and pop store. Walmart looked packed as fuck, didn't even try to go out there. Suck was goind to pay down credit card this week but stocked up on food. Probably was the best move.
Adrian James
This TP thing is a test run for the Big One. The (((Deep State))) want to see how selective their fear messaging can be.
Sure, it's traditionally easier to fight wars defensively, but if you're shackled to the home where your precious burger-paper is hidden it becomes much harder for you... Harder still when you think about all the townspeople you pissed off with your obsessive hoarding. Selfishness = no allies for the winter. Cut and dry. Now, let's discuss that house of yours. Light vandalism will eventually force you to venture out for repair supplies (broken windows = too cold nights). You might be stocked up on spare windows and boards - it doesn't matter, since the attrition favors the raiders. Do you see where this is going? Hunt us down, others will sneak in. Booby traps everywhere? You'll just get smoked out by fire. You should have acquainted with your neighbors instead of trying to prop yourself up on their bones. Boy, you fucked up by panicking about FUCKING TOILET PAPER AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAGAGAHAHA stupid hamburgers i cant wait for ur precious jew masters to die from virgin blood withdrawal. pic related its u
> People will remember who decided to buy 3-years worth of toilet paper. Kek, no they won’t. People memory hole shit almost as as things happen. Remember the guy that got arrested for fingering the drunk girl behind a dumpster. Remember all the chicks that swore to post his picture everyday and never let society forget him? Ask a random person if they know Brock Turner now. Hell, ask them who Steve Paddock is. He was a much bigger deal. They don’t remember shit. And you think they’ll remember some nobodies that hoarded TP?
Jackson Green
yes, no one stopped PRODUCING
Kayden Perez
Kek. I was in a large Tesco at 6.30am. It would normally be nearly empty, apart from staff and a few van drivers picking up bits and pieces before their day on the road. About 100 people in trolleys were up and down the aisles filling up from the night's delivery. No major sharks, but you tell everyone is prepping. The only pasta they had was twists, and one guy was taking about 4 bags of the stuff. This shit has just started. Wait until the tracksuited scumbags can't get any shit. They prep nothing apart from, "gett'n me weed yo". Bongs have no guns. The cities should be real interesting when it really kicks off. No doubt the coppers will be doing the important stuff of policing mean comments on Twitter and painting rainbows on squad cars. Fun times ahead.
Daniel Robinson
There’s no disruption in any U.S supply chain, it’s just the panicking shitstained retards that insist on buying 10 packs of toilet paper for a low tier emergency at best. It’s really the MSM causing the
Camden Gutierrez
my store is empty. bread gone, water gone, paper goods gone, canned goods almost gone, meat gone, plenty of fruit and veggies , no bananas , i got the last can of oats. last bag of flour.
Jacob Perry
KEK
Asher Lopez
if that maple butter is anything like what I've had at a tennesee restaurant it was worth every penny
Gabriel Green
>I do eat a lot of brown rice so I'm pissed that's still out
Get some white rice and have a pajeet cook it for you by hand. It'll be brown when he is done. Don't mind the shit taste though.
Jose Brown
Honestly you people laugh at toilet paper hoarders, but you really don't have enough yourselves. The average American uses 1 roll per day. If you have a family of 4, that's 28 rolls a week. Over 100 a month. TP rolls will be worth their weight in gold in a few months, because everyone needs it.
Eli Cook
Up until yesterday, the upper-class grocery stores (Gelsons, Whole Foods, Bristol Farms, Lazy Acres, etc.) in Southern California were exempt from hoarding. That ended yesterday when the Governor ordered the self-isolation at home of every person age 65 and older. It's a madhouse now. My father, a teacher who is off-work with pay, showed up at a grocery store this morning at 5:55am and the line was around the building.
Not a nothing-burger and the worst will be over by June. A scientist used the data from other countries and projected that the U.S. infections will peak in early May, but earlier if we don't start testing and quarantining.
