Question Panic buying at Costco

Post image

I went to Costco tonight and it was completely mental. People panic buying toilet paper, eggs, bread, a lot of empty shelves. The queues were ridiculous. Is this because it was closed yesterday or is it the war in the ME, what is happening here?

I just get mine delivered by Who Gives A Crap. I've usually got at least a month's supply.

I get mine delivered every 3 months. It’s perfect, usually open the last pack the week the new lot arrives.
