But my local Morrison’s has run out of toilet paper and because that ran out they bulk bought kitchen paper!!!!

What have people had a run on in your area folks?

If anyone does have a run on toilet paper then maybe wait until the diarrhoea attack has finished before wiping.

The health minister (Matt Hancock) said the government is working with supermarkets to make sure essential items are available, yet the supermarkets say they haven't been spoken to. Who to believe? The locusts seem to have cleared the shelves of hand gel, paracetamol, toilet rolls or kitchen towels.

There's still a good supply of sprouts, so got some in to freeze for Xmas. Not to many Easter eggs so that's a bit worrying. :0)

[woofgang]

ok NEVER EVER EVER use kitchen paper as toilet paper. It is designed not to dissolve when wet, the same as nose wipe tissues, and using either will block the loo.

Would you believe paracetamol, ibrufen and hand gel ( naturally )

[Cloverjo]

Most people have been sensible round here. Shelves are full.

There are free Guardians everywhere. I know through past experience on a building site that works well.

At home simply tear into squares and put a piece of string through as my father taught me.

[cassa333]

We have no loo rolls, hand gel or wet wipes in the supermarket.

Whatever happened to bulk buying baked beans?

[teacake44]

I've been in my Lab all morning producing my own hand gel, strawberry jelly, with 2/3 shots of whisky, now setting in the fridge. :0) :0) will be able to got to bed tonight sucking my fingers.

^^^actually can be made with strong vodka (or isopropyl alcohol is better) and aloe vera gel.

[fender62]

no shortage where i live, scaremongering me thinks, plus it's a boon
for hand wash liquids and soaps, must be doing 24hr shifts

[retrocop]

I have no doubt you will find a street market stall down Brick Lane stacked to the clouds with hand gel and toilet rolls, ( All marked Tesco and Sainsbury's etc) and double or thrice the normal price. A Spivs killing.

[maggiebee]

Was in my local Asda at lunchtime today. All shelves were full and no sign of stockpiling.

[cassa333]

Lol it must be all the sad cases round here bulk buying.

I’ve got no room to bulk buy anything let along some thing as bulky as loo rolls.

[pastafreak]

Locally, shops by me are well stocked. Will check city centre tomorrow or Sunday.

[Arrods]

Brains I suspect.

[Maydup]

Same here Cassa, no loo rolls in our supermarket today, no hand wash, only a few bars of soap left and limited packets of paracetamol.

[ummmm]

I do my shopping online and most things are available.
