We can find it here but it is definitely limited on choice. Paper products are produced here in the U.S. Where is it all going? For there to be a shortage people would need to have basements full of the stuff.
Sure is a lot of strange stuff going on

local grocerie finally got some back in stock just this week just single rolls wrapped in paper 99 cents each limit one per trip.
when I told the wife there was no TP at the groceries store 3/28 having gotten only a small pack 3/14 she ordered a case of the commercial stuff she gets for the office 50 bucks a case but it is a lot of TP it also hasn't shown up yet should be here in the next week we hope.
I purchased a extra box of tissues and some baby wipes if we have to make do for a while.

Read a good article on that exact subject last night. It seems that the industry is based on a model based on consumer and business use. That is how they are set up and there is virtually no easy or cheap way to retool. With so many folks at home and not using or working in commercial areas the consumer market has increased some 40% as the commercial demand has dropped off greatly. So folks are making more trips to the bathroom at home more and out in town and work less. Additionally the 2 papers are different. The commercial paper is largely made up of recycled paper and is thinner, rougher, on big spools and packaged in 24 roll boxes, whereas residential paper is virgin paper, thicker, on rolls that will fit our home fixtures and packaged for consumer sale. The process by which each is made is totally different. Then the actual supply chain has to be redone to allow for the extra delivery to retailers. I have no interest in the TP industry but it was a good article and made sense.

Y'all now baby wipes will clog up your septic tank, yah? Or for that matter the municipality's waste water treatment equipment. They are made of cotton and don't break down.
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Michael Lippold, I dont know if baby wipes were available when my kids were babies. I know we didnt use them. Kept a five gallon bucket with bleach water in it for the babies wash cloths after they were used. First baby we used cloth diapers. Same thing. Bucket of bleach water till they got washed. Rinsed out first in the toilet.

especially if your home and not working save your TP for the evening movement and poop and shower again with the morning movement Wait, TWICE per day? I sit on the throne at 0600 sharp each day and I am all set.
I have nothing clever to put here.

I sit on the throne at 0600 sharp each day and I am all set. I am 0600 and again around 1800-18:30 yup 12 hours almost could set your clock to it most days , If I eat very little I might get to 0600 only. my wife says I am the most regular guy she knows.

Hold it in and only chit every 3rd day. That might be hard for those that are already full of chit.
