Re: corona pandemic~
Yep I just came in, in the sun it isn't bad. Word had it on friday Costco was getting some TP in but the coppers were gonna be on hand. Maybe I mentioned it before but my folks got back from their wintering hole the other day and had a heck of time shopping,  not much of a panic down along the gulf coast they said.

Re: corona pandemic~
Sooner or later some folks are going to run out of money or out of room.  I shop every day.  I noticed one thing that's not running out.  Pototoes, fruits, onions and more in produce.  Mashed potatoes sound good and I can eat them on a regular basis.  The past few days folks have not touched the breads much.  Today it was all gone.  Lot's of candy, pop, and sport drinks.  I have a lot of meat saved up.  Hey, Cubs have bonless pork loins for 1.49 lb.  Got a couple today.  Looks like they won't get much or any of chicken or ground beef delivered tonight.  Canned and boxed goods are slim to none.  Rice has been out for two days.  And so it goes.  good luck.

Re: corona pandemic~
I was just a cub to grab a few things and I was shocked.
There was a lady going batcrap crazy because they were out of chicken! The employee nicely told her they had frozen chicken breasts and she wanted nothing to do with that and then said she was gonna go somewhere else. I looked at him and said good luck!

Re: corona pandemic~
It's the people who are creating this shortage.  The suppliers have the products but people are buying more than they need.  Another reason is there are not enough truck drivers.  Prior to this virus thing the drivers they had was good enough.  Nobody knew this thing was coming.  So now you have to hire more drivers.  If you had a buisness you would know how many folks you need to carry out the work needed to get done.  When something like this happens and you are in the food buisness all of the sudden you are looking for more help and this is what is happening now.  Hording is selfish and not needed.  good luck.

Re: corona pandemic~
Exactly. You can't eat 20 cases of TP. Buy what yer family should need, not a ton extra to "be prepared". That's wherein the shortages lie. Blizzard/panic shopping. Also, the grocery stores I've seen just do not have the help right now to stock the shelves, becuz very few want an entry-level job like was the norm for you and I. Everyone needs at least $20 per hr job to buy their iPhones and $200 month plans so they can chitty-chat on their social website and post glorious selfies. Very few plan ahead anymore, it's the me-me instant gratification order a "meal-kit" off Amazon for tomorrows dinner. Instant gratification = instant $$$. They're gonna wake up in a real hurry, I'll tell ya.

Re: corona pandemic~
I work as a maintenance tech at a grocery distribution center. I called there to see how things are going. I guess it is just nuts. Unprecedented volume, they can't keep up. Guess I picked the right weekend to be a caregiver.

I went down to the local grocery store to pick up milk and cheese for da fajita's. of course I needed to check out the stores. all sanitary wipes gone, anything with bleach was limit 2. bread was pretty wiped out and most brand name TP  was to.

teals here in town had a limit 2 on a lot of the hoarded items!!!!!! but store was pretty picked over. more then normal for a late sunday afternoon. but I didn't think it was to bad. no idjiots in there when I was.

Re: corona pandemic~
I know.

After seeing Mom, fighting idiots while trying to get my diabetic meds at Walmart, I didn't feel like anything except maybe getting drunk and kicking the sh** outta someone. Or maybe a full choke hold.

Re: corona pandemic~
The better people are about isolating themselves and only going out when they have to the sooner this will be over.  Hopefully this makes a quick recovery.

Sounds like somebody caught the bug in Waseca. Don't think it's roony cuz it was someone 40-something years old. Art is an old fart like me!  :rotflmao:
