A friend of mine did this recently... bought industry-specific rolls of TP.

Turns out they're way too big for her TP holder/dispenser... And they don't have any perforations (since the commercial holders typically have little razor-like edges to rip off the right amount.

She's making do, but I bet after a few months of this, she'll wish she hadn't just waited for regular TP to hit the shelves again. (It's starting to make a comeback around here.)[/quote]

[quote=Chypmunk]Ewwwwww to sharing toilet paper :sick:[/quote]

[quote=John McClane]You won't believe how many people I saw sitting out on their front porch when I went and visited my old neighborhood the other day.

Then again, it's a really nice neighborhood with rich white people who probably share their toilet paper and ketchup. A genuine utopia![/quote]

[quote=doubledenim][font=century gothic]All this stay at home stuff has made me realize how much the world has changed in just my lifetime. 

People don't really sit on the porch anymore. Now when they do, it's like, "That weirdo across the street is watching us". 

I'm not that kind of weirdo. We were raised right, we sit on the back porch :D[/font][/quote]

[quote=doubledenim][font=century gothic]Even better is home t.p. and "not home" t.p. may as well be made by two different industries.[/font][/quote]

[quote=John McClane]The case that I purchased is primarily bought by small businesses/hotels. Like there are warehouses upon warehouses full with the 1-2 ply industrial TP.[/quote]

[quote=John McClane]Yeah, it's pretty remarkable. I read an interesting article that put the whole shortage into perspective:

Essentially everyone that was shitting at work is now shitting at home. That's why there's only a shortage with retail/residential TP.[/quote]

[quote=Yoda]All I'm seeing through all this is how amazingly lucky we are 99% of the time that we can get almost anything we want, super cheap, immediately, and never worry. It takes a global pandemic to disrupt that luxury, and even then it ends up being more like "you just need to order it a week or two before you need it and it might cost a little more."[/quote]
