I went to Sam's yesterday. One of the supplies I had to buy was toilet paper because I'm actually almost out of it. There were two giant packs left out of an entire aisle. The clerk said that was all they had left. I also needed sanitizing wipes for work--I work in geriatric home health. I REALLY need those wipes. The company supplies wipes, but not in the quantities I use them, especially now. But there were no wipes to be had at Sam's. Sold out, the clerk said. People were all over those aisles, looking for basics. Scary.
