    I would not have stocked up on that many...a month ago.
    But now... when I was promised by the govt that there was plenty, would be plenty of everything...and all I see on tv are empty shelves...why aren't army trucks being used to transport toilet paper to the supermarkets?...and it's obviously "every man for himself", I'd have to think seriously about doing the same.
    Woolworths have none available for delivery.


    They delivered me some yesterday and last week too. You just have to be persistent and log into your account twice a day like a crazy person (me) and then you can not only get your delivery window but the toilet paper as well. The specials change over in price every Wednesday and the toilet paper gets delivered on Thursdays. I hope this helps

    Yeah, I eat loads and loads of deep fried chicken wings smothered in buffalo sauce so I always keep plenty on hand!

    Yeah. Dunno what happened with all the Easter eggs in Woolies. There were loads of them there on Thursday and in fact soo many that they had just about everything on special but on Sat morning there was absolutely nothing in the store! They must have cleared them out for some unknown reason. Shyt luck if you needed to get some at the last minute.

    I did did however find tones of them on Sat arvo in Big W which is strange as they are part of the Woolies group. Why none in the supermarkets but plenty in the dept store?

    Back onto dunny paper... what’s the bet toilet paper manufacturers cry poor when things get back to normal and no one is buying because they are using up the supplies they amassed during the crisis? Same goes for supermarkets who will see a definite downturn in sales when things return to normal.
    Same at Coles North Rose Bay on Saturday..just one small display of Lindt and no other brand at all but toilet paper at the end of each aisle...LOL...Woolies gave me 2 small bags of the little ones in my home delivery a week ago and refunded me the money for the rest as they were out of stock. Yes my boss and I were talking about the toilet paper production too the other day. Woolies said they sold 20.5 million rolls...

I've been working with a bunch of them for the past 3 years as our other office is in Brookvale but for a time there we did have more Roosters fans than them but due to resignations etc they are outnumbering us again. The new job I've applied for and really want involves working with another of them and reporting directly to a Sharks fan...God help me..I can't get away from them..

He offered to bring me some if I would make one of my nice frittatas for him..LOL..I remember the days when a man would bring flowers, chocolates and maybe a bottle of wine for dinner..now toilet paper is considered a hostess gift..
