Not stupid but brave. As brave as the poor shop assistant who draws the short straw and has to fill the shelf of hand sanitiser...

I buy in bulk when on offer. Always have.
Got 48 Cushelle from Tesco for cheap a couple of weeks ago, then Velvet 9s went into the deal of the week at Spar for £2 a pop beginning of March so I bought 5 packs of that.
Haven't bought any since the Covid-19 became newsworthy.
It's my standard practice to keep an eye out for offers for stuff that is non-perishable and that I will always have a use for.
Toilet rolls, razor blades, tins of baked beans, chick peas, sweetcorn, tuna, etc. I always have a small supply.
My motto: It's better to be looking at it than for it.
When my stock is low , I look for more and if a deal pops up I'm on it. I rarely buy at full- or inflated prices.
I check hukd if I'm looking to stock up on anything in particular.

I have three children and buy as cost effectively as I can. This generally means buying bulk packs of whatever you can. We have ALWAYS bought pasta in a huge bag, and big packs of toilet roll/ beans etc etc. It just makes good financial sense.
The other day I needed toilet rolls and felt a bit guilty buying one pack of the 24 roll packs. I think I got some looks walking around town with them, but a) there were loads on the shelves, and b) there were loads of 24 packs, but not many smaller packs?
Its a bit annoying that I now feel guilt for shopping as I always have, but to be fair I know that pretty much no one else will actually cares what I do!

We normally keep 20-50 rolls on hand. When the price drops to $5 a pack of 12 we buy a bunch.
There was once a sale at our local co-op chain that was $7 US for a 24 pack of the 'double' rolls, and I bought 16., That's the most toilet paper I ever owned lol.
