Several friends told me they couldn't find hand sanitizer anywhere last week. I was in a Dollar Tree early Saturday and hand sanitizer and toilet paper was sold out as well as many other staples such as bandaids and antacids and bar soap and refills of hand soap. Target also had no hand sanitizer, bandaids were in limited supply as were the some of the bar soaps. Large packs of store brand TP was all gone but Target had plenty of more expensive name brands. These stores I visited were also out of alcohol completely and low on peroxide.
