It took forever for it to get back to normal here. There was limited TP available after the initial panic, but it took months to get anything decent on the shelves. I was ordering it online for a while.
- dagw 5y ago48-72 hours after the initial panic my local large food store had literally more toilet paper on the shelves than I have ever seen in there before. However it was all super low quality and from brands I've never seen before or since.

- washadjeffmad 5y agoNothing captured my imagination and horror more than an advertisement I once saw for "splinter-free" toilet paper.
- forgotmypw17 5y agoBack when I used to use toilet paper, I would sometimes encounter a kind which would fall apart while I was still wiping, breaking up into a bunch of tiny "rollies" which would, as you may guess, would remain stuck to my butt. It was one of the "extra soft" brands, I think.

I'll wager your grocery store called one of them up and got a few pallets to resell, creative move on their part.
