People piled trolleys 2 meters high with dunny paper and they were allowed to buy it
in the previous few days.
I can’t believe that the supermarkets didn’t stop them and the ScoMo
didn’t introduce emergency powers to stop hoarding.
This country is train wreck and that has me very depressed.

I just can’t believe how stupid our so called leaders are.
They are morons and the average person doesn’t give a toss about anyone else –
they only care about themselves as there was enough for everyone if they didn’t start hoarding 100s of toilet rolls.

Yesterday Coles and Aldi in Runaway Bay I checked and they had full shelves loo paper.
I thought how nice, a better relaxed way up here.

Today, went to Westfield in Helensvale about 12 min drive up from Runaway Bay, went and had a lovely back massage at the chinese place.
Said to daughter, I need some deli from Coles, and dish washing liquid as she was nearly out it, and the loo paper area was completely empty!!

I looked at rice section and it was almost empty!

Still plenty tinned products and pasta though.

I think the supermarkets should put a limit of certain items due to the panic buying.
A Facebook friend whom lives in Endeavour Hills couldn’t understand why everyone buying water? She asked if our water catchments are running dry or something.
She also saw someone with 30 cans of pasta sauce in their trolley.

Has anyone seen that funny pic with peoppe wrapped like mummies in toilet paper ?

You honestly think a prime minister (from either side) is going to stop stupid muppets from blowing every cent they have on shyte paper they'll flush down the toilet. Imagine the GST these slimey fkkkers have raked in over the last 3 days on crap paper alone.

All this doom and gloom.
Fires.
Floods.
Corona virus.
Influenza....don't forget that nasty bug.

Turn off the free to air.
Grab a book.
Make your way to a shady spot on the beach or something.....and forget about this stupid society.

Best thing my family ever did was unplug that tv aerial. Works a treat.

The arse paper industry would be cheering right now. I've been thinking about the great arse paper fiasco that's happening at this moment. Either it's total stupidity or there is something smart going on. I haven't decided yet. How do people all start buying loads of arse paper at the exact same time? Maybe these assholes know something we don't? Very weird indeed.
