In my case, that's what I do normally. I buy them in bulk when I go to Costco, so I'm sorted regardless. I didn't panic buy, I did what I normally always do.

I have to get some today as I'm down to the last half roll, but I'll be getting the usual four pack and no more.

I find the selfishness of those panic buying all stock they can find utterly disgusting. There are vulnerable people in the community who cannot get basic supplies.

So the young and non infirm, take all the essentials, as the old and vulnerable who can only get out once a week or have to rely on others to do their shopping are left with fuck all ... played u selfish pricks ... just hope you aren’t that selfish and forgotten about yr elderly grand parents etc .. mind it could be just a faster way for u to get yr hands on any inheritance.. enjoy

Yes the most vulnerable can't get hold of them now because they don't have that available cash to stock pile. I can't get hold of them for the last two weeks and been using paper towels etc which isn't great for the sewage system. Please think about others and not yourself. We need to work as a community not as an individual or we end up like countries like Italy with a prolonged quarentine lock down as noone took it seriously. The suppliers said they had enough toilet roll for the country. But if people stock pile, then there isn't enough. I work in the health care industry and even our medical suppliers doesn't have any to sell because people are stock piling.

I just had a mooch on Ebay and looked at both hand sanitizer and loo roll and the prices were ridiculous when compared to the usual prices you'd normally pick them up for. I did have a quick look at Ebay's "Announcements" section and there is a comment from about the 2/3/20 basically reminding sellers not to exploit prices due to things like natural disasters/Covid-19 etc. as their listings could be taken down. I did sort of feel like looking for a, "Report this seller" function to send listings like that to their version of the Mods....

This country has gone mad. Its, all about self, self, self. Fuck the rest. The latest incident of a guy coming out of a shop with 2 packs of loo roll then being mugged for them shows just what this country is now. Won't be long before the looting starts.that picture of a tesco that looks like a bomb had hit it with shelves ransacked and torn down and food stuff all strewn over the floor is shocking. People need to get a grip and stop acting so stupidly bring back rationing quickly to make it fair and prevent total lunacy breaking out if it hasn't already

My only guess is they are preparing for the 14 days self isolation if needed. If you have a large family that's a lot of toilet rolls. Whether they have anything to eat is another question

Family of four = One shit a day each ( for bad eaters it can be less )

Four shits a day = 28 shits a week.

28 shits a week = 28 x 6 sheets ( im letting them wipe twice ) = 168 sheets a week.

There are 200 sheets per roll so ..... one roll per week should do for poo.

If there are 2 women in the family - they pee several times a day soooooooooo

6 wazzes a day = 12 wazzes a day for the women....

12 wazzes a day = 84 wazzes a week.

84 wazzes at 3 sheets = 6 sheets for two women soooooooo

84 x 6 = 504 sheets that's another 2 rolls....

So that's 3 rolls per week. 4 to be generous.

2 months = 9 weeks .....

36 rolls for 2 months for a family of 4.

I've just realised that women are the main users..........

Wash your foofs ladies. Use the towel to dry it......

We always buy a BIG pack, I think it's about 24 rolls. We got one about a week ago and have 20 rolls left. If I see stock on the supermarket, I might pick another pack earlier than I would normally but only because stocks are unreliable. I might also pick-up a few packs to take to the food bank.

Apparently there is actually an explanation why people are panic buying toilet rolls and nappies etc.

Whenever we get warnings of wintery weather (that's snow to you and me), a lot of people rush out and stock up on milk and bread. This is the short term panic scenario, where people fear they may be housebound for up to a week.

Apparently, when the length of duration of isolation increases, people tend to buy bulk items. And by that, I mean large, bulky items - such as multipacks of toilet tissue. Which would go on to explain why people are now panic buying multiple packs of nappies. I wonder how many of those don't even have babies.

Perhaps it's some ancient nest building instinct or something as, apparently, logic doesn't come into it.

I, for example, always buy Toilet rolls in packs of 18. These don't last quite as long as they used to before I got custody of my son and the (former) step-daughter moved in.

I went out and bought a pack on Tuesday because I'd gone round the house and counted that I only had 6 rolls left. But this was no different than normal

I don't get the panic buying at all, everyone will need to go out 4-7 days later to buy bread, milk etc these people are doing it to avoid going out for weeks.. I hope supermarkets put a cap on items as panic buying for me is for the weak minded and the selfish.. Maybe supermarkets need to take the Italian approach and put a list through though a hatch, so people can't throw every item into their trolleys

Costa Blanca Spain...


"No because I'm out of the country. Nobody in Europe seems to be going as insane as the Brits about toilet paper "

I wouldn't be so sure about that.

Here in Spain they were going a bit wild yesterday and Friday.

We are still in touch with Germany and it has gone completely crazy there. Some supermarkets stripped bare.

All major supermarkets, shopping centres, restaurants and bars have free toilet rolls. Needs must. Ahem. Cough

We tried to get tinned tomatoes this weekend but everywhere near us is sold out. We looked on Amazon and found some for £2 as tin! Rip off! Profiteering.

how exactly do you think the supermarkets are gonna restock when they have few or no staff, deliveries of stock made with few or no drivers, stock picked to send to supermarkets with no distribution warehouse staff?

i could go on endlessly about all the things and people a supermarket needs to legally open

it’s not as simple as go and buy what you want, no staff and the whole house of cards crumbles.

"Why? Just why?

In my case, that's what I do normally. I buy them in bulk when I go to Costco, so I'm sorted regardless. I didn't panic buy, I did what I normally always do.

Same. I get mine once every couple of months but NEVER in the hell that is Costco.

Went to Costco today at 11am not to buy toilet roll which they had already sold out of and also bottled water wtf is wrong with the stuff that comes out of the tap but to stock up on lawn feed and well cheap

If we run out of big roll I guess I'll just have to get the pressure washer I got two years ago and have never used out of the shed and construct a home made bidet.

It’s only going to get a hole lot worse “ reports of people fighting in shops over bottled water “.

As mentioned above what is wrong with the water on tap.

In zombie films there's always one selfish person who does something stupid because they think it'll get them out and to hell with everyone else. They usually end up getting bitten as a result.

But the last few days has shown those people actually do exist in real life.
