As stores sold out of toilet paper, manufacturers released photos showing warehouses full of stock to allay public fears over a toilet tissue shortage.
Signs at stores asking people to refrain from taking toilet paper are now popping up all over the place.
▼ “Taking toilet paper out of customer toilets is prohibited.”▼ “A request to customers!!
Please don’t take the spare toilet paper rolls.”This sign says people need to ask to borrow a roll of toilet paper from store staff, reminding them that it must be returned afterwards.
This notice, at a Cainz Home home centre, says those found stealing toilet paper will be reported to police.
