That makes me wonder if the toilet paper industry is also seeing a short-term dip in sales because of all that hoarding earlier this year.
Its annoying how there was pretty much no toilet paper to be found for months with a massive stock pile of paper towels everywhere and now its the opposite. I stock up on toilet paper and paper towels at regular intervals and was lucky to only barely begin running out once stores started getting toilet paper again but there seems to be no paper towels anywhere now.

i personally drink coffee less because i can simply take a 25 min power nap when i get my usual noon drowsiness after lunch. i also sleep longer because i dont need to commute as much and feel much more refreshed throughout the day

Not worth shelling out for 5lb of the good stuff when everything past the first pound will be stale and not very good by the time I get to it, and purchased in smaller (usually 8-12oz) bags high-quality, freshly-roasted beans are way too expensive to have more than occasionally.

The shittiest (ha) TPs are the ones where the buyer cheaps out, i.e the one you found in every AirBnB on the planet (when AirBnB was still a thing)...
I was originally going to theorize something about office workers having more options to deal with fatigue -- taking a nap, or staring into space (and maybe being less fatigued in general from all the time saved commuting?) -- rather than just drinking coffee and toughing it out at their desks; but in light of this stat, it seems that this is all about how hard cafes & restaurants have been hit by lockdown.

FWIW, major grocers like HEB spent months planning and simulating the effects of the pandemic before it hit the US and still didn't see the run on toilet paper coming.[0] 0: https://www.texasmonthly.com/food/heb-prepared-coronavirus-p...
