COVID-19 WHACK-A-MOLE

Even "sane" people are going WACKO during this pandemic! Who knew toilet paper would become a currency! At the beginning of the crisis rolls were handed out for free by the most random vendors. Car washes. Restaurants. Car dealerships. And more. All were offering toilet paper as bonuses. Buy a car and receive a TP rebate. Or get a free side of TP with your entree when restaurants were still open. Even my 55+ community gave a free roll to each resident. But you had to go to the front desk to pick it up, and I was petrified to leave my condo. If I run out, I reasoned, I'll just make a bidet out of a spray bottle!
