Is it "market price" for toilet paper?

[nitpicker]

I actually spotted some toilet paper in a Harris Teeter's.

However, there were no prices on the shelves.

So what IS the price? $10 for 12 double rolls?

1. Walmart forces you to come pick it up here instead of being able to order it online,

like I have done for years now.

It was $12.48 for 12 Mega Rolls. I usually get 24 Mega Rolls online and they last a good long while, even with nervous stomach problems. So, it is a YMMV type thing for each person.

2. I saw TP and paper towels on the shelf at Fred's in WA today

Seemed to be close to normal prices and there was a good size stock. Still no hand sanitizer though. And they even had 3-packs of face masks, limit two packs at $15 a pack. I did get a pack of those but wasnt in need of the TP and PT.

3. I always buy it even if I don't need it and

then give it to my adult kids who are always dropping off meals for me.

4. I thought about that but seems like people are finally able to get it around here at least.

6. Well, its definitely not on sale, were paying full retail.

With that said, I walked into the store today and was able to by a 12 pack...of course at full price.

As for price gouging, when the lock-down first happened, you could pay $40 for four rolls on ebay. Or go to Costco and pay a premium from a guy who was selling it out of the back of his car.

I plan on buying a bidet if we get low.

It's a 20 minute drive for me to a super market, so we always out of habit stock up, so we've been ok. In fact, our freezer is full, just because when I do go to the store, I just grab meat, butter, etc. just in case. Plus my wife has been baking bread, blitz, etc. and just shoving it in there.
