The TP outlet king was supposed to be a joke. My sense of humor doesn't cross the interwebs well.
I'm not really making plans to barter, but I would expect it to be taking place. Commerce is part of the foundation of society.
Having the ability to barter (or provide comfort items) in an emergency situation is just another prep. If someone can swing extra preps, when it is commonly accepted that so few have any preps at all, why not?
In a disaster situation I believe having friends near-by would be very important.
Sharing some TP, food or water could begin the bonds of community. If I were to lose everything, I can imagine being grateful for someone offering me a bar of soap to call my own. I do not relish the idea of waiting in line at a FEMA shower trailer.
Call me weird, it wouldn't be the first time.
