    Plenty of fresh foods grown around our neck of the woods.
    No panic.

    Gold bars - not that worthless plastic money.

    I can't wait to use toilet paper as the new currency in the post-apocalyptic world... imagine counting off the number of squares and tearing them off to buy items...

    I'm stocking up on quality triple ply - I'm planning on gouging the rich people with sensitive tushes!!

    Also - we'll form mobs hunting for the heretics who supply toilet paper that unrolls against the wall.

    It will finally be our opportunity to rid the world of this scourge!

    Got it - but also have a very large stack of old newspapers if it gets really desperate

    Smokes. Great trade item.

    Apparently my grandfather did very well trading cigars during the Nazi occupation.

    Coffee.

    And powdered milk but that is a non-essential.

    At the risk of taking this thread off-topic, see this:
    124-year-old patent solves the 'over versus under' toilet paper roll debate

    The original 1891 patent for the toilet paper holder answers the question of which way is the right way to hang a toilet paper roll:

    Medications . I'm a mild asthmatic , so have stocked up on those . Anyone on regular meds should get those .

    I'm ordering my daily contact lenses , one year supply , going to the dentist and getting the car serviced and had a hair cut today

    Masks , hand disinfectant .

    We stocked up last weekend after the initial reports of cases in Iran , Italy and South Korea .

    Going up to our weekender for this weekend and will stock that up too .

    We've always tended to buy food on a Just in time basis , but want a reasonable supply .

    We have the possibility of isolating the lower half of our house ( separate entrance ) so I can stay down there , and go to work without risking the rest of the family . Will get a cheap second microwave and Kettle . I'll hibernate in my recording studio , writing songs . That means they'll be healthy so they can drive me to hospital if it's needed ....

    Think most of the things we bought have been covered . Coffee and toilet paper are important ...

    Also bought hand moisturiser . Using the hand disinfectant will dry your hands and possibly cause problems.

    Olive oil ?

    A reasonable position to take but not Corona for obvious reasons.
