It depends on what collections you complete and re-complete; I'm level 145 (do not TT) and I occasionally run out of even the most basic fixers. As far as I know, fixers you get from rooms is a completely random drop, so while you might be getting thread or scales about 25% of the time, for example, I might be getting them 10% of the time.

If I am low on a fixer - any fixer - I will put it on my WL. When I have enough I will remove it from my WL.

There have been times when, for example, I changed my name to reflect the need for lanterns (the Garden kind). Some friends will, instead of giving one or several lanterns, gift an entire collection that gives 50 or 75 at one time; I can get enough of those that I am all set for Lanterns for  while, but I run out of the basic fixers needed to complete those collections. Sometimes those collections just sit there because I have no fixers available to complete them for the lanterns. There's no single scenario in this game - everybody's situation is different and very fluid. I've had 15 of one CI at one point and then maybe a week or two later I'll suddenly have none and have to put it on my WL.
