    Hoarding, again

    I guess people have started hoarding again, this time because of the rising costs.

    Costco is out of toilet paper, again.

    I guess rationing of certain products will come soon.

    Abby it's called being smart, and you should be doing the same unless you like the single ply mexican toilet paper, because i would rather pull leaves off the damn trees in my yard then ever have to use that crap again!

    I've never used toilet paper from Mexico but, the toilet paper in Germany was like sand paper.

    I don't need toilet paper now, I bought the huge multi pack from Costco a while back and, haven't opened it yet.........it was my grandson who told me about Costco being out, he was in there today.

    If I'm going to hoard anything, it's going to be meat, canned goods and, the big bags of beans and rice.

    We are lucky and have not seen it yet. We even have Gatorade and other items people have been talking about being short. I have to bet that is just us ending our tourist season with shelves inventoried for a larger number of people. It will probably take a few weeks to catch up. In the meantime, I'll have to stock up on the panic goods but I feel like I am playing into their hands. There is plenty of coffee, meats and all those other things they just screamed panic on but never went short on.

    I haven't noticed anything not being available, either, not around here, in the smaller towns, Costco is in Tucson.

    We have an "Animal Welfare" law that goes into effect in CA January 2022. It will cause shortages of any Pork product and drive already high prices through the roof.

    I already have some products stocked in the freezer and intend to buy more when I see sale prices!

    I feel for you people who have to live there.

    I have a large commercial type freezer that's pretty full right now but, with a little creative re-arranging, I can probably fit more in it, which is what I plan on doing soon.

    Our local Giant had a TP shortage for a week. It was restocked the last time I went. It has shortages of some other items that I buy.
