But you save time conmuting and petrol (which means netto cash too), in my case around 460km a week. Still more expensive than the increase in electricity.

My electric bill has gone down. My electric car doesn't need as much charging.

Too much distance for me to consider it right now. Maybe when the battery management and load process get improved.

96 rolls...that ought to last a while.
When this is over will there be a glut of TP so much so that it will be really cheap? Or will people still continue to hoard and keep it in their doomsday bunker?

Why is is so that people start talking about "doomsday bunker" whenever they see someone keeping a stock lasting more than a week?
When human culture evolved from "hunter/gatherers", living from hand to mouth, to farmers that had to plan at least a year ahead, we consider it an advancement, a kind of higher culture. Nowadays, it seems like we strive to get back to the hunter/gatherer style. We do not gather edible fruits in the jungle but at the supermarked. The difference is not that essential.
I happened to have five sixpacks of TP in my store at the start of the Corona Age. Twelve rolls of kitchen paper. Fifteen cans of tuna in curry ... and so on. I was not as well stocked up on everything, but I could survive for several weeks on the food I've got in my house. To me, that is the reasonable, natural way of living. If I need some ingredient for a dish, I find it in my stock; I do not run to the grocery store to get it.
One reason is that I certainly do not drive my car every day. So when I do, I fill it up with six packs of this, twenty-four packs of that, five kilograms of something and six liters of something else. It is not stocked for armageddon; it is all consumed before half the time until the Best Before date. I know that I won't survive doomsday anyway, so preparing for that is a waste. I prepare for everyday.-

I love how that page has about 20 words and a typo in capitals "See AIL Listings"

And you found that web site while searching for...?

A replacement for the soapbox.

So you ended up at a web site for people who are full of sh*t?

Hey watch it, I'm reading the lounge.

Exactly that. I was curious if someone had already registered it. Turns out they had. That's funny.
And no, I wouldn't have if it hadn't been already. Just curious.

I was reading a piece that explained that the toilet paper we use at home is different stuff from the crunchy single ply on giant rolls that we see at work and in restaurants.
The paper mills and deliveries are tooled to supply it "just in time", except we're all at home now.
This does not explain the panic buying ahead of the stay home orders.

but there's no soapbox.
