Anyone else having trouble finding paper plates in the stores? Around these parts it’s like the toilet paper issue a few months ago. Wtf

Well, all the ammunition had to go somewhere. With record firearms sales, maybe they were all bought up for target practice? hahahahaha

Just don't blame me...I only use steel targets as I prefer to hear the ring.

J-K- I have no idea of what causes people to go "el loco"

I don't have any problem getting paper plates, but have a big problem getting paper bowls here.

Sure, you can get all the Styrofoam bowls you could ever want, just not paper.

Kinda the same here. I can usually find paper plates but if they have bowls I had better get some because they usually non-existent. :rolleyes:

All things wood (including paper products) are through the roof. We can't discuss why here.

I can get all the paper plates, bowls, TP, towels or tissues I want. I cannot get napkins, cleaning wipes or Lysol products. Good thing I have a dog. He has been pressed in to service to replace napkins.

Lysol spray and wipes are right up there with big foot sightings. It's very hard to validate whether it was a true sighting or a figment of the imagination. 🤔🤔🤔🤔

nah, people ran out and bought all the paper products they could stuff in a buggy back in april/may. Now there's an oversupply problem here, no shortage at all. Dollar Tree has a lot of paper products now; I bought a bunch of plates and bowls the other day, $2 for 2 packages, which'll last me a good while
