Maybe there’s a surge in demand because people are hoarding the petrol in Jerrycans, similar to how people were hoarding toilet paper during COVID. Something I still don’t quite understand - the whole world was going into lockdown and some people’s primary concern was gathering enough toilet paper to last a lifetime?
Yeah I still wonder about the TP thing. Kinda fascinating really.
Like there’s always just “enough” but it only takes 1 day for everyone to buy everything thats available on that day to create this illusion of scarcity so everyone bought everything they could get their hands on for the next year.
Weirdly my mrs has been a TP horder since forever so we already had a 2 year supply at the start. We have bidet sprays in both toilets so we dont use that much anyway.

Did Australia also go stupid for toilet paper?
Yep. Stupid people are everywhere unfortunately and Australians have somewhat of a tendency to hoard.
