Oh shit.

Is that the measurement we're using for toilet paper now? By weight?
NuclearMonk
Witness me! Uh...no thanks

10,000 pounds of toilet paper placed into evidence for future trial.
beachbum69
Well, shit - THAT'S where it went in NC...
EccentricNimoy
I have a gag tp roll with trump on it. Hes grimacing and pointing his finger. I wonder if it's worth anything now lol
sadurdaynight
We grab piles of circulars at grocery store to shred for kitty litter. I'm starting to eye that pile to use as TP myself.
pitymee
I found some at the store. 30 pack. There was only 3 packs left. Man i felt so bad getting a pack so big for myself but i was in my last.
hartm08260
Do we measure toilet paper in pounds?

I've only found toilet paper in smaller markets like "natural," asian and similar food places. Snagged a four-roll pack yesterday
ItWasASickOstrich
My friend is a truck driver and he told me they have too put the toilet paper in the front, so people don’t break in and steal it
Beefkins
Theres a bar in my town that announced they will begin beer delivery service and a free TP roll for orders over 50 bucks.
Link01
Whose sloppy ass loaded this trailer? Those tiny pallets should be double stacked in there.
Freightshaker
That's what I thought. TP loads usually cube out.
TheLastSpaceman
Like.........WHY?
slyvic
They stole the trailer. Probably thought it had something more valuable in it.
SeeMyVests
More valuable than toilet paper? Can such a thing even be possible?
PandoraBacchus
Don't know where you are located OP but here in southern Washington most of the stores have TP if get there before 7:30am
Ancientmariner52
Saw people leaving Lowe's with tp today. Reasonable quantities. I didn't know they stocked tp, tbh.
Kristyandwade4ever
Get a bidet, all your troubles will be so far away.

Local Lowe’s was cleaned out with hours today (near Raleigh NC)
PhailRaptor
Costco employee here. If we don't get our extra truck of nothing but TP, we run out of our normal delivery in less than 10 minutes. Limit 1.
Muunk
Witness me!
TwoSpeedTony
SimonDesrosiers
We gonna run out of many others things before TP. Stay at school kids!
ReginaKasteen
They can't, school's closed.
SciencePetsComputers
can confirm. they still make me go though. probably because they pay me to clean it.
CheeseB0t
The onion is officially out of business.
Goosexi
Who counts TP by pounds?
ErniesWidow
The Weigh Stations along the interstate.
Moosecock
It’s easier than figuring out the TP roll math
Goosexi
This would be easy if every roll was exactly 1LB
BeMyBromigo92
Dim weight for sure.
kraeftig
Freight shipping counts in pounds, since they need to weigh the trucks load. Units are counted for delivery receipt
Atomsk
Yeah, that should've been grams
deltree5
Truck drivers perhaps.
apistia

Goosexi
I only know freedom units ?
Coiren
Nah, lb's are for body weight. Everything else here is metric.
ReginaKasteen
Brexit must be going badly if they're using toilet paper as currency.
Baggsy13
Bought a pack at the local supermarket. Quantities are back to normal. Someone is going to lose their shirt with all them stored rolls.
Keddar
The Costco I work at received two pallets of TP Friday night. They were gone in five minutes, at Limit 1 Per Membership.
MmmYesShallowAndPedantic
NO RETURNS ALLOWED
leroythesuede
Not in Utah, everyone flipped SHIT cuz we got corona AND an earthquake.
Fido013
I've been thinking about that. SoCal is so fucking ready and I could just see it happening now.
Fido013
By 'ready' I mean super overdue. NOT prepared and it shows.
magikmarker
Most store have instituted a no refund/no exception policy on items like toilet paper, and hand sanitizer
seventhtry
My local store in MI is still hit and miss. I was down to 2 rolls before I got "lucky" with the store brand 2 ply.
wizardOTC
At least you are not yet forced to remember what a finger in the ass feels like with the 1 ply terribleness.
StevieTheAussie
Or a corncob in your cornhole.
wizardOTC
Think I would prefer the 1 ply to the ol corncob butt (see what I did there?... maybe that’s just me?
Shawnthegirl
Still haven't seen any here (In a Seattle Suburb)
RxNoob
Costco was sold out but I found someone with 2 packs in their cart. Followed them until checkout they said limit 1, so I said I'd take it!

-insert gif of Jake from Brooklyn 99 saying “smort”
PoorSucker
Let's hope so
AgamemnonsMemes
Its not like it goes bad, they'll just not buy any for a couple of years
demonic
Not in my area, no tp :(
MsMath23
No nothing in my stores...
falconram
Same
xRAINxOFxBLOODx
Same here. IDK what to do.
TobascoPanda
Costco is already refusing returns from the idiots who hoarded toilet paper.
nanciesweb
Technically, it's more for sanitary reasons. If these people were infected, we don't want the rolls back onto the shelves.
Netlawyer
Still good to hear. Anyone who hoards or tries to profit will get what's coming to them bc toilet paper is a commodity. Warehouses full.
ReginaKasteen
...do we really want *anybody*'s TP back on the shelves? I mean, really?
Lifeisharddeathissoftlol
I like that some companies are deciding 'no taksies backsies' is in effect
Corona688
Our truckers started doing that first. It's a measure to slow sources of infection.
StevieTheAussie
Well they were happy to sell it and take money for it. Not so happy to take back the TP and give back the money.

Finding yourself on the wrong side of an arbitrage play is a bitch. They didn't realize that what you see in the store isn't the supply. /1
Netlawyer
US vendors have maxed just in time inventory chains. Assholes who hoard are just that, assholes. /end
CorrectMostOfTheTime
That's not really the reasoning otherwise no one would offer returns. Its to teach a lesson
TheCaptain00
Its actually because it could come back with covid germs on it and spread the virus.
TerraDactyl89
It's also because the quantities people are hoarding literally could not fit back in the store if they all returned it at once.
joebuck123
I was talking to a woman in the store yesterday, she said " I hope they store it in their basement and their basement floods" ??

stripeypurple3
Happened to coworker. In SLC we had an earthquake this past week. Coworker's stored pickles fell, broke. Pickle juice soaked the TP hoard.

I hope a lot of people realize the consequences that actually holds. It's more than losing the TP....
CorrectMostOfTheTime

genericanamoly
Like, as in it’s wasted money all around?
maninthedarkness
Mold. Mildew, and the like will grow so much faster. Cleaning soggy TP takes forever and likely a lot will be missed because it got into >

cracks and dark corners.
