Toilet paper and the end of the world

Okay all the doomsayers (I'm one of them, but I'm looking forward to big changes) who think the world is going to change radically in the next few years all talk about survival after civilization breaks down - preparing. Food storage, living off the grid and the like. What about toilet paper after you can't go to your local supermarket - because of earth changes or riots? There is only so much you can hoard. I thought maybe of those commercials where they vaccuum all the air out of clothes and store them in those plastic bags - do the same. OR grow bamboo trees to make it later. I just think its funny - none of these movies or shows like Jericho address that sensitive issue. What do you think? And what would you miss if you survived but were cut off from civiliZation?

No, so if you were shut off from civilization there is nothing you would want - no extra food, books, batteries magazines - you'd just starve, bored out of your mind? Well then you wouldn't have to worry about saving extra shoes, socks etc I guess.
