Perhaps the powers that be consider selling smaller packaging of essential items such as TP.

Who really needs to have 48 rolls of TP?
Or 16 rolls of paper towels?
Or even a 12 pack of hand disinfectant?
Or 6 packs of disinfecting wipes?

I think it's more larger packaging issues (that's mostly what's being offered for sale) for the big box stores.

If they limit purchasing to a 8 pack of TP then more households could have some, like 6 households could have an 8 pack compared to 1 having 48 pack. At least until this is behind us.

Just my thoughts as I'm very bored as are most of you!
