    It wasn’t that. Everyone started buying home tp because they weren’t going anywhere.

    You could get huge boxes of industrial tp if you could afford huge boxes.

      Around here, all of the supermarkets and Walmarts and the like were completely devoid of toilet paper. So I went into a Dollar General just to see if they had any and… fully stocked.

      How the hell did that work?

        Because the people with enough money to overstock themselves on toilet paper would have been embarrassed to be seen in a Dollar General because it’s “beneath them”, and the people who are willing to go to DG don’t have enough money to stock up.
