The story of people struggling to get toilet paper in a variety of ways in the United States where daily necessities are stocked.

Foreigners such as NBC introduced the story of designer Dahlia McPhee of Los Angeles who obtained toilet paper in exchange for her own designed dress.

McPhee searched over twenty shops to buy toilet paper, but he couldn't buy it anywhere. He said, "Everyone is coveting toilet paper like water in the desert."

Eventually, Mr. McPhee decided to use the new dress he had designed. Originally, it was a proposal to change her own dress and toilet paper, which is sold for about 120,000 won with our money. Mr. McPee, who succeeded in the transaction, received 12 toilet papers.
Such bartering is taking place fiercely throughout the United States. After living in Houston, Van Rensburg posted a post on his SNS stating that he would like to get toilet paper and was offered barters from neighbors. Mr. Lensburg exchanged his hand sanitizer and mask with his neighbor's toilet paper.

People who have never obtained toilet paper use a unique alternative. Online, there have been reports of people using cloth, paper towels, coffee filters, and even t-shirts instead of toilet paper.

"You don't need to be caught in fear. There's enough daily necessities to use during the corona crisis," said Leslie Sarasin, president of the American Food Industry Association.
