I’m far from being a prepper but just the way I buy stuff had me prepared. I never buy just 1 of anything. If canned veggies are on sale I’ll buy a whole flat. I make a tp and paper towel run every once in awhile and stack them in the garage simply because I don’t like to think about it. I’ll buy 15-20 of the 12 double roll packs of tp all at once. Hubby is a huge meat eater so the freezer is always stacked with meat. Because of the way I shop we were waaaaay more prepared than most. I have to host bunco next week at my house and joked with the girls that I was giving tp out as the gifts. lol

I’m with you. I hate to shop so I always buy toilet paper and paper towels from Costco in those huge packages. I have a freezer full of that weird stuff they sell that I decided to buy and then hated. So, I’m good.

Same here. Every few months our local Smith's will have a "Case Lots Sale" of canned veggies, Top Ramen, Spam, etc. and we'll drop $100-$150.

I make a tp and paper towel run every once in awhile and stack them in the garage simply because I don’t like to think about it.
One of the very few benefits of getting old and forgetful is that when wife and I go shopping, invariably we'll ask "Did we get TP the last time? Forgot? Get another bale just to be sure." We're loaded.

We can sit comfortably for a month or so before replenishing and marvel as the idiocy and panic on display. What the Hell would happen if it was food that was in short supply? (rhetorical)
