Is i reasonable to start stockpiling due of Coronavirus
Yesterday someone told me Costco from Guelph ran out of Toilet paper,since ppl are stockpiling it ,to get prepared.
I found it interesting,so when i went to do business in Wall Mart-checked out the toilet papers.
Lo and behold-3/4 of the huge shelf was empty there .
Not sure if it was just a coincidence,but it is interesting........thoughts?
ps-of course i bought some too....

It's good to be prepared.
Never know just how it's going to play out. But laundry soap to wash your close are missed by many lol. .
We found a sweet deal on shampoo and conditioners amongst other hair products. Was in a clearance bit at our local independent.
Grabbed about 140 bucks in products for around 15 bucks. They was a 2 carts full of products on clearance for 94 cents each lol. It's not first we a have stocked pilled soaps and shampoos living with a bunch of women and girls it a necessity [emoji1787][emoji106].
As for toilet paper we always by bulk we only buy on sale we a frugal and like good deals. Its something you always need so why only buy 1 or 2 packs of it. We probably have a good 2 to 3oo rolls on hand. I would hate to pay so much on something we need as an every day essentials. Spending the 40 or 50 bucks on it when it's on sale will save you more than you spent[emoji106].
I'm thinking since its suck a hot thing right now they won't be putting good deals on them. You know how it works supply and demand why put something on sale when it's going to fly off the shelves at full price [emoji54].
We are totally prepared from soups to rice canned veggies ,soaps ,propane to animals food. . Only down fall is I will still have to work [emoji1787][emoji39]. Just glad I dont work in the city anymore I did when sars hit. I can still keep my distance from people and just do what I have to do if it gets bad enough.
Just dont be buying things that go bad or you will eventually toss in the garbage. Get things you will use.

There is panic buying and this will only get worse as more cases are revealed. Locally, pharmacies are running out of hand sanitizer and masks. About the only thing people aren’t buying is overseas travel!
With over 100,000 cases worldwide, it’s really a matter of time before it spreads more into North America.

Was at the local hospital this morning to drop some blood and was talking to a doctor I've known for some time. She said they have been informed to hire more staff to prepare for what is coming. They are to have more beds set up away from the main ER and such. For the worry to be that big in a small town is a little concerning.

Toilet paper and ammo fellas. The price only goes up, it doesn’t go bad, you’ll always use it, and when you need it, you NEED it
