@funcountess My husband just left for another 3 week stint at the company he retired from in May. He is doing contract work for them in Research and Development, something that cannot be done remotely. I did shopping last week, and anticipate not having to go to any store while he is gone, except for lettuce or apples. When he returns, we will do a major shopping for canned goods, and shelf-stable foods, with an eye to healthy alternatives. Like you and a few have mentioned, various shelves are empty. We have two or three stores we can go to in different directions from us. When we have to "run into town" be it north or south, we take advantage of it and hit a store.

Hi Gingerw
Get your running shoes on because you may need to go to 2 or 3 stores for grocery supplies.
Talked to friend in New Jersey, and she said it was bad today when grocery shopping. Tomorrow she going to another market.
Yesterday when I shopped, I bought 2 — 3 pack of Kleenex. Shelf was full of product. Told neighbor,, and she went to market, EMPTY SHELF, manager told her truck would make another delivery on Friday, but. probably limited amount of paper products.
She then went to Ralph’s, same thing there.
It’s the same problem in frozen foods.
High dense area markets are having such a run on food.
Don’t bother to call the markets as they say products change from second to second.
So true.
I have a feeling it’s going to be a re-run of last winter, and panic buying.
Stay well,
Funcountess
