Ordinarily I would but when I got laid off groceries were the bigger concern. I have little kids to feed and my animals. The kids and animals come first. I need to save the money in my HSA for an emergency.

I forgot to give you a hug

I never watched any of the Star wars as a kid but my brothers did so they know all about it... I am so lost when I watch the new ones, but I really like them because of all the action in them. I know who all the characters are and everything, but I just don't understand the whole thing because I didn't watch all of the stuff before the new ones.

Well, that is kinda where it gets wonky. Between all three episode groups, there is a considerable time gap and quite a bit changes between them. Start from Epsisode 1, it should help alleviate SOME of the confusion. Some being key, as even then continuity can be a bit, well, odd.

I lucked out and had just ordered enough to last a year for my mom & me both about a month or so ago.

It's definitely timing on some things. I never figured people would be hoarding toilet paper over a respiratory virus but there you go.

I'm so sorry that you are in that situation. My husband just heard that he might not be working either because Virginia might be shutting down... That's not a definite thing, but his boss said to be prepared.

We have kids and lots of animals as well... I will starve before my kids and animals go without food. I will live off white rice if I have to and make do with it.

Yup, I think a lot of us would. I don't think this is going to last forever but boy did the timing suck! And thanks for the hug

Seems TP hoarding should coincide with a lower GI track virus to me, but I'm gonna be the one making "Butt Washcloths" from old towels/tshirts....

they are saying more than half of the people with this virus are actually having stomach issues and diarrhea...

I think the toilet paper run is a directly related to the government giving food and mres and water during times of crisis but no toiletries to go with the food they give. I guess the unprepared figures if anything the Gov will supply foods like mre

I have 2 MRE's in my cupboard. One is spaghetti and the other I forgot what it is.
