Domestic engineers, or their subordinates: Indicate here how your supply of TP is holding out by # of rolls. Elaborate why.

We always have a large (costco type) pack of Charmin at home, sometimes 1 1/2.   I learned my wife ordered some a couple weeks ago too, and sure enough, they arrived last week.     I also always have a zillion ziplock bags of various sizes and paper towels.   I don't live in a shoebox, and I haven't been single in awhile.  This isn't unusual.

The stores are stocked here, so no issue, haven't even bought when they have it.

Stores here are stocked again. The hoarding appears to have ended, although it may start up again now that we are going to 4/30.

I'm just back from Kroger, I didn't see anything out of stock outside the pharmacy aisles.  Cold medications were out.  The TP aisle was about half full, which means plenty, and they had some Kroger brand stacked in front near the registers.

People hoarding cold medicine is really ignorant. That's happening here too, I've been told.

I received the shipment of TP from my brother through the mail when I was down to my last roll.  Good timing.  
It's been tricky looking for TP while trying not to interact with people much...and I struck out every time.

I am the Toilet Paper Czar of Austin.

I did not intentionally hoard, but I didn't realize my i s c & a aggie wife had a large stash, when I bought a large package, just before all this started.

On the bright side, I will not be competing with any of you for whatever toilet paper IS available, for the next 6 months or so...

Florida is bad, I'm told by some friends. Arizona too, per Mrs. 847's parents.

Older people are hoarders??

Yeah, I was going to say that seems like a low threshold.  At basically all times we have at least 5.  When we are down to 3-4 we pick up another pack during our weekly Sam's Club run.

We still have an unopened pack of Sam's Club TP (about 45 rolls).  My wife bought this a couple of weeks before the hoarders went nuts.

Oh, I meant a constant reserve of  1  or 1 1/2 massive Costco SKU's , not 1 or 1 1/2 rolls.    It's like a Net Capital requirement, 'Thou shall have 24 or more rolls at all times at the MH household.'    It would be unusual for us to have fewer than 12 rolls on hand.

not sure how many rolls my daughter has in the basement, she took the last package I bought down with her a week ago.  Was a small pack, probably 12 rolls.

as long as I'm working at the office and using their TP the 5 large rolls in my bathroom will last a few months

I go to the grocery once a week, wasn't any in stock last week, I'll try again later this week.

Wife actually has some deal online where our TP is shipped to us every so often.  Same deal with dog food. We have a case of 36 rolls in the garage that just last night we had to get into since this whole thing started. I bought an additional package of 12 the other day at the store just because it was the first time I had actually seen any on a store shelf around here.
