Unfortunately, in some instances panic buying and stockpiling has lead to shortages of essential household items in some supermarkets.
As we all know, toilet paper is at the top of that list, as people flocked to stock up as coronavirus spread.
Despite governments urging people not to panic buy essential items, insisting that supply chains could keep up in the current uncertain times, some people are evidently taking matters into their own hands when it comes to their precious toilet paper.
This leaked Aldi security footage shows absolute chaos ensue as customers scramble to buy toilet paper:That's why the news that Amazon is now selling a handy portable bidet might be of interest.
The portable bidet is rated at 4.6 stars out of five on Amazon, and will set you back just £4.59.
The product description describes the bidet as an "Ergonomic soft squeeze bottle, made from durable material. It's a great economical alternative to expensive & bulky electronic bidets."
And as for ease of use, "It's light and easy to carry. Fill and use anywhere. You may enjoy a clean refreshed feeling anywhere with it."
And as for what else you'll need, according to the product description, just water:
"Long head helps to keep it clean. Angled spray design for perfect aim. Nothing else is required. Just simply fill the container with water directly from the tap, at your preferred temperature, attach the angled spray nozzle and squeeze for a gentle spray of cleansing refreshing water."
One promising five star review of the product reads;
"It works beautifully. Anyone who is bothered by piles or itching will know what a godsend a bidet is for hygiene, cleanliness, and all day relief. I'd an initial reservation on capacity when reading some other comments, but in practice, it's been perfectly suitable, and gives around five strong sprays on one filling. That's usually enough, but the bottle is easily re-charged. It's nevertheless compact enough to fit in a toilet or wash bag, making it available pretty much anywhere."
