Toilet paper mayhem as three women FIGHT over loo roll in the aisle of a Woolworths supermarket

Three women have been filmed in a remarkable fist fight over toilet paper at a Woolworths supermarket.
The bizarre brawl is understood to have taken place in Chullora, 15km west of Sydney's CBD, as Australia's coronavirus panic sets in.
Hysterical screaming broke out as the trio battled in the aisles, with the incident seemingly stemming from a mother and daughter stockpiling toilet paper.
It comes as tens of thousands of Australians are forced into isolation over coronavirus fears, prompting worried families to panic buy food and essentials.
After spending hours queuing for the store to open at 7am on Saturday, the women poured in - with the mum and daughter piling their trolley high with toilet paper.
The fight began when a third woman tried to take one of the precious packets from the trolley, sparking mayhem.

Bankstown Police said they are trying to identify two of the women, having already spoken to a 49-year-old woman about the incident.
Acting Inspector Andrew New of Bankstown Police appealed for the women to come forward, and urged the community to stay calm.
'There's no need for it. It’s not the Thunderdome, it's not Mad Max', he told reporters on Saturday afternoon.
'Violence will not be tolerated, and anyone involved in this behaviour may be committing an offence and find themselves in court.'
After the fist fight was broken up by a member of staff, the camera panned to show the women's trolley full to the brim with toilet paper.

'Are you f*****g joking?', the other woman asked.
'I didn't smack her, she hit me,' she continued, pointing at the woman's daughter.
'I didn't touch you, I took the packet, and you came and hit me.
'I just want one pack,' she said, pointing at the trolley - which was full of toilet paper.
The mother then said 'get away from my daughter', as other shoppers implored them to stop fighting.
I just want one pack', the women then said, as she pointed towards the mother and daughter's trolley full to the brim with toilet paper.
The mother then refused to give the distressed woman even one packet, saying 'no, not one pack'.

On Wednesday, Woolworths became the first store in Australia to ration toilet paper thanks to the ongoing crisis.
Toilet roll in particular is racing off shelves, with the country's biggest manufacturers, Kimberly-Clark, speeding up its 24-hour production line.
It hopes the round-the-clock production will help to slow the panic, as Australian families stock up fearing a total supermarket shutdown.
This is despite toilet paper being produced on mass in Australia, and no supermarkets reporting a shortage.
Staff called the police and rushed to separate the women, before trying to confiscate the trolley load of toilet paper - but the older woman refused to let go.
Pleading for calm, one exhausted staff member tries to reason with the daughter, saying: 'Look what you're doing. You're fighting over tissues.'

Woolworths said the four-pack limit would protect stock levels in the face of 'higher than usual demand'.
'Woolworths has today moved to apply a quantity limit on toilet paper packs to ensure more customers have access to these products,' the company said in a statement.
'The purchase limit of four packs per customer transaction applies in-store and online.'
Coles and Aldi have now also imposed limits.
Last week, Prime Minister Scott Morrison admitted there was 'every indication' the world would imminently enter 'the pandemic phase of the virus'.
On Tuesday, he made a rare plea to the bosses of Woolworths and Coles as communities worry about running out of pantry staples.

The supermarket giants admitted they had begun stockpiling toilet paper, tissues and Panadol, as well as long-life food produce.
Production has been disrupted in China, the epicentre of the virus, and one of the world's primary suppliers of the household essential.
Tim Woods, the managing director of market analyst Industry Edge, told Perth Now Australia imported 40 per cent of its toilet paper from China but the rest was manufactured locally.
“There might be a one-off hit to what’s on the shelves, but is that going to continue today, tomorrow and so on? I doubt it,' he said.
'People will go and buy extra packs and then they’ll go and look in their cupboards and go why have I got 90 rolls?'

Some people are so desperate to get their hands on toilet paper they have begun queuing up outside of supermarkets hours before they open.

A Costco in Melbourne had people queued in a line down the street hoping to get their hands on the much-sought after product.
Stores have had to introduce a four-pack ban so more customers have access to toilet paper.

A spokesperson for Woolworths said: 'We can confirm an incident involving customers at our Chullora store in Sydney earlier today.
'We will not tolerate violence of any kind from our customers in our stores and we are working with Police who are investigating the matter.'
Bankstown Police confirmed they attended the incident, and an investigation is underway.
A spokesman said: 'Just after 7am (Saturday 7 March 2020), police were called to a Chullora supermarket following reports of an altercation in an aisle over toilet paper.
'Staff intervened, separating the women and police were notified.
'Officers from Bankstown Police Station attended and spoke to a 49-year-old woman, who had reportedly been assaulted. She was uninjured.
'No arrests have been made and as inquiries continue, police are appealing for public assistance to identify the other women involved.'

if they have probiotics in their diet they won’t need so much toilet paper.
 
Aiyoh, why so kan cheong? Just like war time, there will be food rationing. All will still be fed. The fatties should take the opportunity to lose some weight.
 
Ozzy idiots. We 70% are very steady no panic at all. :cool:
 
The men are the hunters, and the women are the gatherers.

Guess how much food rations the Brits got during wwii,not much I can tell u......dumb Brits should have prepped for the war.....build a goddam underground silo and fill it with shelves of canned and dried food.then again people were poor back then and love hand to mouth,we live in a age of prosperity where people can stock one or two year's supply of food.
 
The men are the hunters, and the women are the gatherers.
According to researchers,it's the women that kep the village alive.....calories from foraging plants far outweighed calories from hunting.

One or two year's supply of food? Dammit I only have six months! Time to panic buy again.
 
U mean six days supply?after ur fridge is cleaned out,u will be waiting for the govt's rations.
Really got six months supply lah. My bomb shelter store is filled, my extra room is half full. Sorry can't chat now, need to drive to the 24hr Sheng Siong pronto!
 
This posts is evidence that people who wipe their butts are inherently stupid.

Men brought back the protein and the fur and skin. And the more loot you brought back, the more legs are opened for you.

Also helped to thin the herd of weak men.

Man usually hunted as a team,it was the first advantage homo sapiens had over animals.

But that's not the problem,the problem was the calories they got from protein was about 700 calories, successful hunts were few and far between,the calories barely made up for what they expended during the hunt.....it was the women's foraging that provided majority of the calories and kept them alive.
 
Coronavirus toilet paper row at Western Sydney Woolworths leads to two women charged - ABC News

Shoppers argue over toilet paper

Two Sydney women have been charged over a physical altercation over toilet paper, which occurred at a Western Sydney supermarket on Saturday morning.

Key points:
The video of the fight has been viewed more than 4 million times on social media
Two women are due to appear at Bankstown Local Court in late April
Coles said it has imposed a one-pack purchase limit on toilet paper
NSW Police said officers were called out to a Woolworths in Chullora, near Bankstown, after an argument broke out between two women in an aisle over toilet paper.

It said two women went to Bankstown Police Station about 8:00pm and were then issued court attendance notices for affray.

The argument was captured on video and has since been viewed over 4 million times on social media and was featured on newscasts around the world.

It begins with the two women arguing in the aisle of the Woolworths in Chullora on Saturday morning, before a man who appears to be an employee steps in.

"I just want one pack," a woman is heard saying to the other woman and her mother.

"No, not one pack," the mother of the woman responds, shielding her trolley full of toilet paper.

A third voice is heard asking "what's the limit?", an apparent reference to the limit on how much toilet paper can be purchased in a single transaction, imposed by supermarkets this week.

The shelves of many supermarkets were stripped bare the past week as shoppers stockpiled items amid a panic about the spread of the coronavirus.

Bankstown Police Area Command duty officer Acting Inspector Andrew New said on Saturday that supplies were being replenished and there was no need to panic.

"There is no need for people to go out and panic buy at supermarkets, Paracetamol and canned food or toilet paper," Acting Inspector New said.

"It isn't the Thunderdome, it isn't Mad Max, we don't need to do that."

Police said a 49-year-old woman was allegedly assaulted but did not sustain any injuries.

Supermarket giant Coles said on Sunday morning it had applied a one-pack purchase limit on toilet paper, both in-store and online, to help improve access for customers.

"This additional measure will allow us to maintain stock levels in stores so more customers will be able to purchase the products they need," a Coles spokesperson said.

The two women charged over the fight are due to appear at Bankstown Local Court in late April.
