I can maybe understand toilet paper stocking up for like a month but I don't get why people are stocking up on bottled water. My city drinking water is good (I've been in cities with worse but nothing a filter can't overcome) and I use a water filter pitcher.

This isn't a situation that the water supply becomes undrinkable after a natural disaster. Bottle water hoarding is stupid. Maybe have one case for a real disaster.
