Toilet paper shortages in stores across America are giving folks nightmarish reminders of the pandemic era. But the lack of toilet paper isn’t a direct result of a major port strike Tuesday. It’s because of panic buying.
This is so stupid. Toilet paper lasts really long, so it makes sense to only stockpile it when it’s on discount and you have dry room to store it. If you actually run out, you can use other paper as a substitute (tissues, bills, pages of that book you hate).
One roll lasts one person about a month. Maybe a bit less, if you use a lot for other purposes like cleaning things.

Honestly some use way more than a roll a month.
Like you, I’ve never understood TP panic vying. I have a years stock too
