I can confirm ...
this week the regular cycle to bying a package toilet paper comes in play ... so we've looked 3 days by another for toilet papers until I'm going after the backery directly to the supermarket at 8:30 (still opened at 8am) the parking lodges are all filled ... and every people coming out the door of the supermarket has one package of toilet paper under his arm. The situation could be from a Monthy Python film .... and in the supermarket, the rose toilet papers were empty and the green one, half of the palette was empty. Expecting that at least 9am the toilet paper was empty ... :-P
