Stan' and Deliver

A panic buyer, name of Stan,
will grab each bottle, jar or can
and leave the supermarket bare.
(No toilet paper? Stan was there!)
His house is full...he buys some more,
and cannot squeeze inside his door!

Lol HaHa - why the huge panic for toilet paper - can understand buying tinned food in a crisis, but just for 3 or 4 weeks. Had a good laugh Jack. Blessings and safe thoughts Jennifer

Whether Stan is a panic buyer or a hoarder, he is quite a character, Jack! Over here in Malta people went on panic buying, but shopping has now returned to normal. ~ Take care. Happy Easter, my friend. // paul

I think that would be called a hoarder. I do know a couple people like that. Even women hoarders.
