I know, huh.  I think it's because CV is on the rampage in the US and people are afraid, really afraid again.

I'm not sure how buying 100 rolls of paper products helps ease that fear.  Did they use the 96 roll pack of TP already since March?  

You are correct.  This is the new ordinary at my market too.  I am baffled by the whole deal, but I am easily confused.

@thekittygirl, In my opinion these are **Out Of Stock Days**. Stay blessed.

This whole thing surprised me the first time.  I caught myself thinking that if everyone just bought normally, there would be no shorted as we all bought normally before and we never ran out here.  

I never intended to hoard, but when I could no longer find any of these things locally, I resorted to Amazon.  I pretended it was a game, making a toilet paper "list" there so I could watch specific items, checking them frequently and ordering immediately when the "buy now" link lit up.  Once it was lit, it was sold out in minutes ! I found it was available more in the late night hours. I got good at it and eventually would order some also for my mother and sister..... paper towels too !

I hadn't bought any at the store in 6 months at least !  Several weeks back when the warnings started coming out, I ordered another case or two now while it is always available on Amazon and a case of paper towels, in case the availability changes soon online as well.

What a pain... right ?? 😄

One thing our government did promise was there would be no shortages, and so far there have not been any whatsoever in our region. However prices were being watched by consumer watch earlier in the year, prices remained constant during first phase of lock-down, over the last three months I have noted an escalation which is actually ridiculously high.

Perhaps in anticipation of holiday season prices are steadily increased to make up for the months and months of lock-down, greed knows no barriers.

No matter what the government or supermarkets says, people still stock pile, its unbelievable. Honestly, how much more toilet paper does one use during lockdown 🤔

All of the best with the shortages, we are lucky and don't have any shortages at the moment, although we are also seeing a spike in Covid cases!!

Thanks for continuing to make Hive awesome.

Oh, this is interesting. I have to check shelves of our supermarkets too. We have a total lockdown on weekends so far, everything is closed except farmathies and supermarkets, so anyway I've nothing to do.

Hope this craziness will end soon. I've heard on news today, that they plan to start vaccination in December in USA, I was greatly surprised.
