panic buying goods, like toilet paper,
Haidee Janetzki of Toowoomba, Australia has taken that to a new
level, unintentionally it has to be said, instead of ordering the 48 rolls at a
time from online company Who Gives a Crap, she recently made an error while
switching to a different variety of paper offered by the website, and the
result was? Not 48 rolls but 48 boxes, that is at a cost of AUS $2,153.78! (at today’s rate £1,082 or $1,413), I guess the company thought with today’s
virus crisis this was just another hoarder, photograph Haidee Janetzki,
she commented "when it asked for quantity, I put 48, thinking that would be a box of 48 rolls," Janetzki told 7News. "Turned out it was 48 boxes. The courier man turned up at the door with two pallets of toilet paper instead of one box." She said the recent toilet paper shortages stemming from coronavirus concerns have simplified the process of getting rid of the rolls,the family has started selling the toilet paper at a slight mark-up to support a school trip her daughter's class is planning, well someones cloud had a silver lining!
