Toilet paper? I've never run out during a natural emergency, but for some reason it flies off the shelves. ;D

Yes.  And when we get a hurricane, I get beer.  ;D  So do a hell of a lot of other people too.  That's one of the top selling items when a hurricane is approaching.  :rotfl:

When it snows we get hard liquor and lots of it. Rum, Vodka, Tequila, etc. . . (All reside in my liquor cabinet in more than sufficient quantities to make anyone's liver quiver).

I always see that I have plenty of coffee and Pepsi and milk on hand.  I also make sure to locate and have my coffee pot I use for camping where it's easy to get to in case of a power outage.

I remember what those look like, but I haven't seen one of those in decades.  ;D

I should probably get one before next hurricane season though now that you mention it.  It would be no bueno in the morning without my coffee.

It's actually a drip coffee pot 'cause I got tired of trying to avoid the grounds in the true camp pot which my ex MIL called a river pot.  You just boiled the water and put the coffee in then put a little cold water in to settle the grounds.  Excellent coffee but a little chewy toward the end of the pot.  The one I use now has a little basket to put the grounds in and the boiling water drips through it from a section with holes.
