Overview
If you've looked at the news or social media of late, you may've noticed a lot of toilet paper talk. #ToiletPaperEmergency is trending on Twitter, a story about a truck carrying toilet paper catching fire hit the front page of media sites, NT News printed eight pages of toilet paper, supermarkets are rationing the stuff, a roll of TP is selling for $1K on Ebay and people are even hawking their work loo rolls on Instagram. Why? Australians are panic-buying toilet paper in response to coronavirus fears.
Despite experts saying that hoarding food and toilet paper is not just unnecessary, it's also "unhelpful", many Aussies are loading up on loo roll in case of a doomsday-like scenario. While, personally, I'd be stockpiling cheese and other nutrient-heavy snacks, some people's priority is obviously in the bathroom. No judgement. If that is you, you'll be happy to know that speedy booze delivery service Jimmy Brings is about to add toilet paper to its collection.
Available to order on the website from Friday, March 6, the loo paper will be delivered to your door in 30 minutes. So, if you can't leave the house (for a myriad of reasons) this is in fact very helpful. While you're stocking up on loo paper, you can also order wine, spirits, beer, Red Bull, Lindt chocolate, crispy pork crackling, Panadol and condoms. All the doomsday essentials, really.
Available in Sydney only, Jimmy Brings' toilet paper will set you back $2.99 a roll, with $1 from each going to the UNICEF Coronavirus Appeal.
The toilet paper is only available until sold out — so, if you're really keen to get your mitts on some, we recommend keeping a keen eye on Jimmy Brings' website this Friday morning.
