    The one thing I can't understand with this bog roll rush is why people are so concerned about what comes out their arse instead of what they are going to feed their faces with?
    No shortage of food anywhere unlike the empty bog roll shelves.

    In a survival situation which people are clearly looking at this as being, Who the fk gives a second thought to wiping their arse when they don't have food and water to begin with?

    If you don't eat, you don't shi... and therefore you don't even need bog roll in the first place!

    The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.

    No, shops got restocked, so they can't sell on eBay for a 600% price hike.

    I never considered that, and if I did I'd probably struggle to be convinced most of them were intelligent enough.

    Went to the local IGA earlier to do the monthly shop, small town in western Queensland, no arsepaper.
    Great to see the stupidity and moronic behaviour isn't just confined to the coast and higher population areas

    A message from the Woolworths CEO ;


    These remain challenging times and with the situation evolving, I'd like to share what Woolworths is doing to support our customers, team members and the community.

    Helping you get access to what you need
    We've been working hard to keep our shelves stocked and Delivery and Pick up windows available. However, as you are no doubt aware, demand is still very high and products are being bought more quickly than usual when they arrive in store.

    To help everyone access the essential things they need, limits are now in place on toilet paper, wipes, paper towels, serviettes, rice and some other items.



    WHAT!! Hot Dang! I had serviettes on sportsbet ... /me checks betting app =)

    I still reckon a LOT of this buy up is due to people wanting to send it OS with the baby formula.

    Putting limits on it should have been done weeks ago. Allows normal household requirements to be met and makes it less viable for the hoarders and exporters.

    I was in Woolies today (first time in a long time). Only to pick up some cat food and a couple of other items as it was near the Chemist we had to use. They had employed a young bloke to walk around the store and wipe all contact surfaces. Rather like using a thimble to bail the Titanic whilst it was sinking. You could hardly move for people in the store, so much for quarantine!
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    Whilst there may be shortages of certain items @ the store..........you can guarantee there will be no shortages of stupid ppl

    I thought the supermarket we went to today was very busy as well.
    Mrs didn't seem to think so but there were a LOT of people buying a LOT of stuff.
    I did stand near the front for a while waiting for her and was looking in trolleys and can't say I saw anything that made me think people were panic buying or stocking up but then again, I don't know if they were there yesterday buying the self same amounts they would normally buy once a week.
