34. Yes. The resupply.

There’s been a run on TP now for at least two weeks. The issue where I live is that it’s not being restocked.

Grocery store chain here has cut hours. People are in line before the doors open. My sister was one of the first inside earlier this week and there was no TP. So it had not been restocked from the night before.
