Narrative:
There was not a bottle of [disinfectant] to wipe down the galleys with. Nor were there any sanitation wipes or masks in the flight attendant kit. Both forward and aft; so we broke into the kit; after we notified the csa (customer service agent); and waited for some one to bring these 3 items to us before departure. We were told that they were out of it. If we are going to get a 'must read' bulletin...about bottle that would be on board; and location on both equipment; then why isn't there? This is the second time had to request it out of ZZZ.on another note; when we arrived in ZZZ1; I asked for the bottle of [disinfectant] for the outbound crew; face masks and clean wipes; didn't get those either. The flight went back to ZZZ with no masks. I sure hope that they didn't have a medical; or weren't exposed to an infected guest. We need masks; sanitation wipes and [disinfectant] spray bottle on all aircraft.please make sure that all of the sanitation items are on all aircraft; and the inbound fas are making sure that if there aren't any left on inbound; that they requested them for the outbound to be replenished.
