    Has anyone let the household toilet roll supply get down to the last roll since March?

        I hope not, because SWMBO acquired something close to a lifetime supply. :laugh:

            Never do anyway. [TMI] I keep two spare rolls in the bathroom*, and when I (or more rarely Herself) replace the "active" roll, I get one from the cupboard under the stairs and replace it. When I remove the last roll from there, I put new rolls on the shopping list. When I next go to the supermarket, I buy a pack of 9, 12, or 16 rolls (depending on unit pricing) and replace the supply under the stairs. * Because Herself dropped the spare down the loo by accident once... [/TMI] I haven't had any problem buying rolls of TP even at the height of the panic buying ...

              I did, but bought another 32 roll pack that'll last me another year or two :D I always buy the biggest pack I can find since TP doesn't go over date and I know I'll use it all. My timing was quite bad as I needed TP somewhere in April, first time this year I bought a pack.

                Me, yes. AFAIK, most people in East Asian countries use water and not paper so yes there would be many.

                  Many years ago I had the situation, that I knew I had to buy but I couldn't because problems at work kept me there until late and the malls where already closed. I had to drop by at the company and get some pieces to survive the weekend until I could buy on Monday. Since then... it has never drop that low again.

                  M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

                        yes, and I go to the store and get a new pack. (as I've done a lot many times in my life, no biggie)

                        I'd rather be phishing!

                                Nope - I set up an Amazon subscription, and from time to time I have them skip a delivery, if I remember it in time to do so. Amazon had to skip a couple of my deliveries because they were out of stock, but I had more than enough already on hand.

                                  Uhh... no, but then I normally don't anyway. I've not bought any 'ahead', if that's what you're asking. Any of you who live in a house with people of the female persuasion know that running out of TP Is Not An Option.
