  Might want some special goggles that they can rent for $1-$2 a pop to go with that.

Say, now there's an idea!! Side sales!  Towels, $3, or blow-dry, (Yard blower) $2....

Clean out that sock drawer....

I hope the virus 😷 only lasts for a week, otherwise I'll have to make another beer run. 

[Rebel SS]

Anyone wanna bet that liquor store home deliveries (they do here) and pizza deliveries skyrocket? Booze sales always rise in crisis situations. I'll drink to that.

Checked out the grocery store yesterday. TP had been hit pretty hard but there was still some of the higher end brand name stuff on the shelves. All the hamburger in the meat case was gone. Went to the meat market after that. No real sign of coronavirus panic there. 

Had to make quick trip to town this a.m. to pay a bill I forgot yesterday but needed a box of envelopes 1st. Stopped at Dollar General where some clown with a chain drive wallet was two people in front of me. He had two shopping carts overflowing with hoarded stuff and was pretty proud of himself. It took forever for the cash register to digest it all and print a receipt. I wanted to kick him square in the @$$ & tell him to get a life!

Those effing hoarders need to have their asses kicked

[Rebel SS]

I took pics Thusday am of the north Walfarts TP aisle and paper towel aisle....good thing ALDI's here. They place limits on stuff. Idjitmart doesn't. Saw people pulling two carts full of water, paper towels, etc. Wanted to punch their effin' lights out.

[LPS]

And WHY???  Idjuts. 

[Rebel SS]

I couldn't believe the canned food aisle. Pretty much empty, as was the bread aisle, and the same a-holes had half-cases of veggies piled up in their carts. If I do ever see this sh** again, I am going to intervene. What happens, happens. I have a close friend who's family has little money and 2 kids, and they were unable to find their basic items (including food) because of this crap, so the entire family suffers. This town has a hell of a lot to learn. I'll take small town ethics anyday over all this bullsh**.

We ran into town and went to Target this morning. I saw 2 guys buying diapers, they had 2 packs apiece, checking out when we walked in. As we were walking around, I saw them again with 2 packages apiece again....then we finally got to that end of the store (cause my wife likes to look at everything) those same 2 dudes were asking the clerk when they were going to get more.... 

[Rebel SS]

Wow...just got this in an E-mail from my attorney.....read thru some of the workplace stuff.....!

What concerns me Reb is the people from the urban areas are figuring out we still have some essential stuff out here in places like Bugtussle. They'll try to swoop in & buy it up. I suspect that's what I saw out at Dollar General earlier today. They usually have part of a whole wall stacked with TP. None to be found there today. I stopped in the grocery store this a.m. afterwards and all the TP was gone. Limits will need to be put in place thanks to these hoarder jerks.  I did pick up a case of water & a bag of potatoes, both items I'd forgotten yesterday because I was in a hurry to get home to do chores. (& watch Gunsmoke afterwards... )

You can be sure the scum will hit the small town places. I saw this coming the last 2-3 weeks, and just bought more than normal last couple weeks when I got groceries....but no mass quantities. I always keep the cupboards and freezer as well stocked as I can anyway. Only thing I did grab two of was the TP. The 8 packs. (no 24 roll cases) Already had one 8 pk. I figger if 24 ain't enough, I'll  just have you send me some corncobs. Or wool.

we got all kinds of this stuff yesterday at the hall...….I heard on KQ that they closed the radio station down to visitors also.

[Rebel SS]

That's 2.54% so far...........that tested positive.

I do the vast majority of the grocery shopping in our household. I'm a sale shopper so I try to do the same. A little lower than I'd like to be on frozen veggies right now but nothing's been on sale locally for a while.

I got lotsa bags of wool, especially the dark colored stuff.  I just hope people don't get totally stupid and start stealing livestock. It could turn into the Wild West in a hurry if that happens.   

[roony]

Isn't that wool a bit scratchy when used as tp?

[Rebel SS]

And how would you know that? 

[roony]

Oops

Already had a grocery store broken into overnite here. Musta been lookin' for TP. Yer gonna see an UPTICK in crime, believe me. They come sneakin' around my house, they're GONNA need TP when they meet my ol'  buddy nose-to-barrel. Already happened once here a few years back. Never knew someone could run like that with their feet not touching the ground. 

[Rebel SS]

The latest Corona rules:

Do the five:

1 HANDS Wash them often
2 ELBOW Cough into it
3 FACE Don't touch it
4 FEET Stay more than 3ft apart
5 FEEL sick? Stay home

Ok, but #4......I can't get my feet 3' apart........I drop my cane...

[Dotch]

Could be but it's a lot cheaper than TP right now. Dark wool is worth a nickel per lb. 

Not sure how safe it'd be in septic and sewer systems. Wool is pretty slow to break down and doesn't burn very well. Hey, I know, if del's still out at the Hotel California we could drop by his place and flush a few bags worth down the toidy just to see what happens! 

[Rebel SS]

Does he have one of those that eats bags of golf balls?

[Rebel SS]

My fishing buddy just e-mailed me he's just stepping on the plane for his trip to Cancun....said it sure is empty! 

[Bobberineyes]

Yep, the oldest just booked the same flight momma took a few weeks back to Arizona,  but for a mere 200 $ less.. let's just hope they are still up n running in a few weeks.

I say we all get drunker'n Cooter Brown, (like Sissy said)  throw on some Lynyrd Skynyrd, and bof the nearest hot-looking babe!
