He must have a super big freezer. Either that or he is planning to sell it all out of a van. However he is not the only one doing this, I have noticed that the meat counter at Co-Op is being wiped out every day too. I don't know where people are putting it all, and don't they realize that if the power goes out it will all rot? They should be buying canned ham and spam, or maybe canned corned beef, at least that lasts a while. But I don't see a run on that.

Non-perishable is the way to go. I have a small chest freezer that I stock up with things when there is a good sale. It's backed up with solar so I can keep things frozen for a long time before the battery goes flat even if it's not too sunny. If I were prepping, I'd be buying cans and jars that will last for years.

I don't get the whole fascination with having years worth of toilet paper stored up. But, guys don't normally go through a roll or two a day.

Yes there are certainly ways to deal with a lack of toilet paper. All our toilets are right beside a shower. Or you can use paper towels and throw them in a plastic bag.

We shop at Costco so I usually have a 48 roll pack on hand and don't think about it too much, but when the TP panic started I thought I'd keep track of how much we were using. So we started with a 6 pack and a 48 pack plus probably another 6-8 in the washrooms. By the time TP started to appear again we still hadn't opened the 48 pack. Family of 3. But when you see something disappear from the shelves it has an affect on you. I now have a spare 48 pack on a shelf in the garage just in case. Doesn't go bad.

Kenneth_Brown • 3 years ago

I agree. When shelves were stocked again I bought another 12-pack (small household) and still haven't used up what I had initially just from my regular purchasing habits. I will sometimes buy a bigger pack when there's a big sale since, as you say, it never goes bad and I save a few bucks over the long term. No sense in putting the money in a savings account since that doesn't pay anything. If interest rates were good, I'd save more and not make big buys that last for months. I think a 48 pack would last just me a year if I didn't come down to more than one bad cold.

But strangely there was no run at the liquor stores. If the world is ending you'll need a good stiff drink. Well I will anyway. And yes the lack of interest definitely encourages stocking up if you have money in the account, especially when there is a sale. It's not like prices ever go down.
