    My town you have to be at the right place and right time in order to get toilet paper I have found. Two days apart I got 12 rolls from my local shoppers and no frills. Of course right place and right time.

    I was at Metro today and they had toilet paper, they were limiting to 4 packages per person. I did grab 2 just to be safe. Normally we buy ours at Costco and that lasts us about 3 months, it so happens to be that within the next 2 weeks I would pick some up. So to be safe I grabbed 2 x 12 double rolls.

    With this being said I do have to admit I am one of those people who was hoping it would be announced that the province or country would be shut down today to stop the spread. I feel it is going to happen at some point and would be better sooner rather than later.

    Also, if anyone needs a chuckle, when I was at Metro there was a woman buying 4 packs of toilet paper (the limit) the woman in front of her only bought two packs so I have to give the woman props for trying but she asked if she could get 2 more packs (equally 6 in total) because the woman in front of her was only buying 2.
    2022 is going to be my year, the year I find organization in my life and the year I focus on myself,
    follow along as tackle day to day life and whatever else 2021 throws at me:

    I live in Edmonton. I did not go around hoarding stuff like I hear some do. I don't have the monies or storage space to do so. I'm happy to give you guys a pack of toilet paper if you can make it to Edmonton.

    I was in Superstore yesterday and it was a mad house as well. In the midst of it all, I stopped and paused and looked around at the the chaos and tears came to my eyes. I had an immense sadness come over me to see the fear that people were experiencing.

    Please pray for peace, calmness and one another during this time.

    And please, stay safe and healthy.

    Love you all.

    I'm sorry it was in no way directed at one person, but a collective people. I was so incensed. I am venturing out tomorrow 8 am to try to get tp for my Dad who cant fight the runners who storm stores. But me with my anxiety. take an ativan....go in...and deal for my dad. My anger was because we had more than enough if people chilled the f out.

    But they didn't, so here we are

    In the old days when paper towels only came in full sheets, I often torn them in half for my own use - it seemed like such a waste throwing a full sheet away when it was barely used. Once when I had an out-of-town friend staying with me, I absent-mindedly did it when we sat down for dinner, handing her one of the halves. I was so embarrassed. But what do you know - now the companies make them in half-sheets!

    No Frills ran out of stock of the advertised pkgs yesterday shortly after 9am. They did have a few pkgs of 8=16 Royale for $7. Is it me or do you find that price ridiculous? Went to 2 other grocery stores no toilet paper to be found. Just left those for those who really need it. Still looking for my mother but I would like a bigger package. One day I may find some..

    Our area is out of toilet paper, I don't know why people are panic buying them but I know toilet paper can't protect you from the virus.

    My wife was at our RCSS today and they are out
    Out of curiosity today I went on their website today and looked to see when the next available slot to pick up if you use pcexpress and was stunned that it is next Saturday at 2PM. I have ordered using pcexpress a couple of times and have always been able to get same same pickup.
