I shopped at Costco this morning just after it opened. As I’m entering the store I see multiple people leaving with carts carrying a huge pack of TP. Some also had paper towels.
As I was shopping I saw a lot more carts with a big pack of TP (customers are limited to one.) I have been there frequently in the past couple of months and I did not observe this in other trips.
I think normies are starting to wake up about shortages!
My Costco (in WA) was out of TP when I went last Wed. Had a few (20ish) packs of paper towels.
