I went to 2 different wally worlds in Siloam springs yesterday to get tp. Shelves were depleted. Had to buy what was avail, only 1ply and 1 pack of Charmin at the last one.
Anyone else seeing empty tp shelves? Paper towels were not empty like tp tho.
Seriously, if you don’t have food the other end don’t matter! Also TP is a fairly recent invention, we’ve survived without it but not without food and water.
But if it is available, why resort to leaves and twigs if you don’t have to?
Anyone who knows a little about the average intelligence and human nature of people knew TP, and other things would be hoarded by those afraid of the Port strike and weather events….
If someone isn’t always prepared for the SHTF….you should be.
So buy 5% extra stuff and build up your preps over time without screwing over everyone else?
How would people be screwed over if everyone followed your advice? Then everyone would, by definition, be prepared. And you said TP isn’t needed, so enjoy your leaves and twigs…
They wouldn’t be screwed over if they build their prep slowly like I suggest. It’s when they buy carloads at once out of fear that it ruins it for everyone else, needlessly.
