I can confirm that. :$
Thursday in Ballarat, Woolworths was cleared out of toilet paper.
Friday, our local Coles was the same. Like others, I just don't understand it. You look at faces, but there's no "STUPID" printed on them.
During that previous panic, customers tried to return their excess purchases as they were short of food money. Supermarkets refused, even printed a message on their receipts.

Good for the Supermarkets, Mike! :thumbsup: Maybe people will think twice before hoarding...although I doubt it. :(

:thumbsup: :lol:

btw George, I'm not suggesting anyone attempt to replicate the store managers tactics in dealing with customers, people, dogs cats or any other living thing. Including plants because, damn, lets not get the herbivore crowd in a tizzy.

I would!! :lol: :lol: Many of these hoarders are nothing but selfish and only think of themselves. It was great to see what the store manager said and did.........................Had me in fits!! :rofl: :rofl:
