Toilet paper, how much do you have?

[P7M13]

24 rolls, which should get us through almost three months.

your cash may soon be worth about as much as toilet paper.

...possibly then there's a "Federal Reserve Note/single ply wipey" plan on the horizon???

I can neither confirm nor deny we have toilet paper.

But this link seemed appropriate

I will survive with my toilet roll in quarantine! How long will you last?

I never understood why I expanded my prepping into paper products, but I have shelves of cases of TP and paper towels and tissues. I haven't bought any during this Great Social Distancing so I'm not contributing to the problem, but I certainly have enough.

I guess it turns out I was right. Now if only I could find diapers and wipes...

Same two Costco packages and t-shirt butt cloths I did the math and that is about a 6+ month supply for us, not counting the cloths.

Well depending on whether we get 1k or 2k back and depending on there being an economy.

We all might be ok as far as toilet paper goes.

So if you don't give a poop about the virus and ensuing panic...will ya still need toilet paper...?

You can use socks where the other sock disappeared into, "The Phantom Zone" in your dryer. You can wash your socks in hot water in your washer and use them again.

The need for staging/stocking paper products is low with COVID-19. If a person is persistent and patient, they can still find those products within a few days - it isn't like the stores cannot restock any product that is on their shelves - it is just panic buying that is causing the problems. If people did not panic buy, there would be plenty of almost everything that people use day to day in a normal situation (not including surgical masks).

If we get hit with a Cascadian earthquake - then we would see shortages of supplies without resupply. It is at that point where it will be good to have plenty of everything because it will be at least months before we would see resupply.

Females use around fifty times as much toilet paper as males so if you have a wife and girls, this explains the great panic we see.
I'm single so a roll lasts me a few months I think.

Well, I've been thinking about this one a lot. How much should you store? If at all. Can you dig a latrine where you are? Is it feasible to do so? How will you deal with doodoo when water doesn't flow to the toilet to flush?

It's ok if the responses are a little stinky in nature.

bubblegum happens.

I don't know how many rolls there are but it filled the safe. Now I have to find another place to put all these guns.

I don't talk about my TP stash unless I'm in a SCIF.

 

[Angie]

Well, a lot of what we use is due to wrapping our pads/tampons. I would instruct your girls to forgo that if a serious shortage ever occurs.

I saw this coming early last month and stocked up on TP for the summer. My rear is all set. However on my trip to the store today I saw that all the cat litter was wiped out. Cat litter....WTF?? If it isn't TP for people its cat litter for the cats. However, not to worry.....

Wife and I were laughing at this yesterday. Store shelves were cleaned out of dry dog food? Don't know if they think they may eat it or if they are raising food dogs
I told Wife I bet I could take a cart and fill it with anything and walk around a while. Soon others would empty the shelf of whatever they saw me with.
Wife texted me she went to Winco. Said she scored 2 12 packs or wipe and a 6 pack of paper towels. I said we could sell it and the case of 9mm ammo I have coming and retire today.

I think I am good.

Years ago, Mgr of the outfit I worked at was stomping and storming around because the "Mountain Money" supply was little or none and he had to sign a purchase order for another case of this essential item:

"Sheezus! How many azzwholes do we have workin' here, anyway?"
