Just got back from Walmart and Sams

In my local Wal-Mart the front by the entrance usually has pallets full of bulk stock. Today I noticed that it's full of bicycles! Never seen this before. Where's all the stock?

At Alex City Walmart on Saturday, everything seemed fully stocked and quite normal...except for Bacon Spam, which, sadly, was picked clean. (My guilty pleasure.)

The only thing I noticed that made me think the store was expecting a run, was the huge display of large bags of dog food, set out right in the 'middle' of the next to last aisle. The day before, my sister and her husband made a trip down to Costco in Montgomery to pick up tons of food & cookies for their 6 dogs...just in case things go south sooner than later.

Stocking up for critters -who grow very use to their regular food- may be more important right now, while it's still readily available.

That may explain why they had fish, then.

Although, I'm pretty sure their frozen prepacked Tilapia & Cod comes from China.

I feel the shock in New York. Driving home on the Long Island expressway. Can’t really explain it and don’t know if it’s just me? Costco was asking if we wanted our carts wiped down with sanitizing wipes. Everyone was asked. This never used to happen ever.

A Costco here in san diego ran out of bakery items and sanitizer a few other things and they (Costco) said on the news there’s zero supply chain interruption stop panic buying.

I'm going to Vegas for the Mint 400, will be sure to bring plenty of tp and paper towels.

Cool, nice area. I have a vacation rental in Sedona and figure we'll start seeing cancellations when people start to panic but nothing yet. In fact just got a new booking a few minutes ago for early April

You mean you WISH to see shortages very soon because it makes you feel better.

That's the fear monger psychology.

You better learn how to eat the rich pronto, zippy.

Costco was similar today, but it was definitely panic buying. Place was full and clorox products were sold out. Water was going fast.

Hey Op, I hear Settebello is really good. Is that the best pizza in town? Also, are there any reasonable priced buffets that you would recommend?

Thanks.

MOZarks. Walmart canned food aisle decimated. Very rural.

Good. People should buy food that lasts.

But yes, it's going to get twitchy.

I haven't read this whole thread yet but op is right,I've been hitting the stores too checking things out especially Walmart have been hit hard I've been trying to get those Keystone cans in the canned meat aisle always none there might go tonight at 3:00 am and check

walmart will probably be shutting down stores and turning them into fema quarantine centers.

Most their product will be sent to other areas.

Seems normal here.. I will check tomorrow.

There must really be a problem if they want you to stop shopping. Maybe they're trying to slow down the zombie apocolypse, if the shelves are bare too soon everyone will know something is up. very creepy ! I remember back in the 80s they used to say "shop till you drop", they wanted people to shop, suddenly it's bad to shop ? Isn't shopping good for the economy ? When they want you to stop spending money something is very odd. Just a thought.

Ok going to Sams tomorrow, the one in Spring Valley by the Walmart off Rainbow, will update then!

That's the one I'm talking about.

:ohlook:

These fucking threads need to stop. I don't know how many threads on the same topic I've seen pinned in the past few weeks. Just stop

glad to see somebody paid attention in class.

Hey neighbor. That's where my 99 Cent Store is located, Rainbow & Spring Mountain. A live a few miles just East.

Stopped going grocery shopping a month ago as I've been sheltering in place. Stocked up over the last several months on Jasmine rice, Italian pasta, canned beans, potatoes, 3 kinds of onions. Took advantage of those locally on Keto diets creating good sales on standard prep items.

Amazon/Whole Foods delivery has been having sales on fresh food items. They've gotten extremely popular & busy. Keep selling out of the $1 canned vegetables which luckily I don't really like.

Why don't you go cry in your safe space?

The one I'm talking about is Rainbow & 215 Arroyo Crossing Pkwy. If you hit the one at Rainbow & Spring Mountain I would be interested in knowing if it has the same problems.

I might go check the one near Eastern in Silverado Ranch tomorrow just to see if I can grab the stuff I wasn't able to pick up today.

Hell, that's just normal for the WM shithole near me. It was out of my toothpaste for 3 f'n weeks, even after I pointed it out to the department manager.

Here in Michigan it's business as usual.

Lunds?
