Through the Coronavirus and Always, God Knows Your Needs

We'll probably remember 2020 as the Year of the Toilet Paper Shortage, almost more than the Year of the Coronavirus. When everyone started buying up all of the tissue, I can't tell you how many stores I went to for just a package of four, but I had not been able to find any. One of my daughters supplied toilet paper for her kids while I had them during spring break, but I still needed to purchase the normal amount I usually keep on hand, so I had been on the watch for it in the stores.

I was told at one of our local grocery stores that they had a truckload of paper goods coming in one particular day, so I made plans to go there that morning and get what I needed. The store opened at 7 a.m. I arrived at 8 a.m. and saw people walking out with paper goods, but when I entered the store, I found the shelves were empty. I was then told another truck would be coming a couple of days later. The store had changed its hours to open at 8 a.m., and I arrived at 8:06 a.m. People were carrying out baskets full of paper goods, including the coveted toilet paper.

When I walked in, I passed the customer service counter and asked if there was not a limit (because baskets were full), and the representative said there was, but she guessed people were bringing other people with them, and they were able to stock up. As I headed off to the paper goods aisle, she said, "There's no toilet paper."

What? In just six minutes?

"People lined up outside the store starting at 6:30 a.m., and it was all gone in four minutes."

I went ahead and found a couple of rolls of paper towels and went to check out. A sweet-looking Latino man checked out in front of me. I got my paper towels, walked to my car and noticed he was parked directly across from me. We said hello. read more
