rusty pins Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Interesting. I saw on EBAY a 12 pack of Angel Soft toilet paper that had 67 bids and was up to $16,000. I see this was just listed: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Charmin-Comparable-Kroger-Ultra-Soft-Mega-12-48-Rolls-Bath-Tissue-Toilet-Paper/164132982157?epid=1900966759&hash=item2637168d8d:g:FsAAAOSwY2pedRDf You gonna pay $20,000 for toilet paper? Especially when there are tols of packages of Toilet paper on EBAY for less that $20. Link to comment

Especially when there are tols of packages of Toilet paper on EBAY for less that $20. Probably troll bids. I'd be tempted to create a toss-away account just to screw with the profiteers. They think they're going to get huge rewards for no work only to be stiffed in the end. Like the hand sanitizer guy! Of course, Ebay may shut them down in a similar fashion if it keeps going. As far as that 20K listing, doesn't look like there's any viable options under "Report Listing". I wonder if the account was hijacked - last feedback was more than 6 months ago. Link to comment
DailyDi Posted March 21, 2020 Author Share Posted March 21, 2020 Low on food I ventured out today, the market is insane! Paper products are still a ghost town, but also no fresh meats, no canned goods, no milk. It's crazy out there! Link to comment

Paper products are still a ghost town, but also no fresh meats, no canned goods, no milk. It's crazy out there! For most items you need, you'll have to hit the stores at opening time to ensure you get some. This goes for canned goods, meats, cheeses, and other miscellaneous foodstuffs. For bread, soft drinks, etc., you might get lucky and the bread or soda guy showed up overnight, but you'll do better following a bread or soft drink trucks you happen across until they stop at a store to stock and then wait for the products to hit the shelves. For bread, you can always get some from the bakery. I've gotten a large French loaf from Walmart but unfortunately their slicer was broken or they would have been able to slice it for sandwiches for me. I've got it in the freezer so it'll be hard while I slice it. Link to comment

I do have some flushable wipes on the way in case the paper runs out before the stores restock lol If you have a septic system I wouldn't flush wipes. Then you want paper that breaks down easily when it hits the water. Link to comment

square_duck Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 It seems, at least where I am, that things are getting better.... Though SLOWLY! I venture out on my way to work and where I stopped had somethings, but were out of others. They are also limiting quantity of items purchased ( rationing) and controlling the foot traffic into the store to a few at a time. It also seems they are stocking 24/7 as fast as possible, or as fast as new hires can do the work * shrug* I picked up some beans....I' m almost out of soup ( the kind I like) but they have other types that I can handle, so I' s no biggie, I definately wont starve!!! I really don't need much, so shopping for me isn't a huge deal, I get generally what I need and move on. If a selection is out, I can get something else....and thats OK! ? Link to comment

Crinklz Kat Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 I was finally able to get some eggs yesterday. I stopped at a store on my way into work - limit 1, but that's all I needed for now. And some bleach. I was nearly out. So, I'm all set again for another week. It does appear things are slowly returning to normal here too - but still obvious signs of the insanity. Link to comment

Cute_Kitten Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Local stores haven't had any TP for weeks now. Kleenex and papertowels, too. Both local super walfarts parking lots are crowded- you can't even find a parking space (and just looking at the parking lot makes me shudder in horror and refuse to go anywhere near that madness). Target has started paying its employees an extra $2 an hour because of this madness. So has the local small chain pharmacies paying their cashiers more. Stock workers can't even fill the shelves before it's empty. Stores have their doors plastered with warnings about safe distancing, maintaining 6 feet of space between peops, etc. Idiot crowds give 0 fucks. Checkouts put X's on the floor so the stupid people know where to stand to maintain safe distance. Does anyone care or pay attention? Hell no, that would require a functioning braincell. They stand as close together as possible, like it's just another day. No matter how hard you try, you just can't fix stupid. 1 Link to comment
