Do you panic buy?

Last year it was the panic buying of toilet paper and now in the US in the East is the panic buying of gas. I'm glad I filled up before even finding out about the pipeline closure!

Do you panic buy or do you try to wait it out?

I don't panic buy but I have always been a believer in prepping. We don't go overboard & only buy things we would eat/ use anyways.
To me, the more people give in to panic buying, the worst it is. Prep, but have a clear head.

I don't generally panic buy. I find it weird that people would panic buy the smallest thing, just because something happened. Common people, you don't need a year supply of toilet paper, just because of a virus slowly making it's way around the world.

Unless you're homebound for a year? LOL

I don't panic buy but I do tend to keep things stocked and now I'll keep more toilet paper in stock than I normally would after last year's fiasco.

I generally don’t, but facing the pandemic last year made me stockpile some things just in case things ran out or was a shortage.

I improvise. There's always alternatives out there & I tend to like the challenge lol

The only panic buying I do is the kind where I panic because I'm spending too much money.

I don't panic buy at all. Not unless I get a heads up that there's going to be a zombie apocalypse.

I never panic buy. It takes stuff away from people who need it and it was hard not finding things during the covid times

Nope, and why would I need to panic buy lol, people just crazy. End of the day, what I do not get why toilet paper 😛

If I remember right that's what my family did too. Especially when lock downs started happening
