Stories have circulated across the country about people purchasing massive quantities of items such as toilet paper and disinfecting wipes at wholesale stores, only to turn around and sell the items online for a huge profit.

That process just became a little more difficult.

Kijiji has now banned the selling of any such items on its website.
