I just got back from the store. Had to do it as the delivery orders from Kroger and HEB kept showing up without the eggs, chicken, fish, ice cream, frozen orange juice.

Houston, west side - small, older neighborhood Kroger - most shoppers are within a few blocks - half of the neighborhood residents are over 50 yrs. old.

At 8:30 am it was busier than I've ever seen it in 10 years. Most items were well stocked - produce, bread, eggs, cheeses, canned goods, coffee, meats and fish, frozen foods and juices, ice cream, soft drinks, chips, pet foods. Also laundry cleaners.
Dish soap and other household cleansers in short supply. No toilet paper or paper towels. They did have facial tissues, so I bought a box. Also bought a pack of handi wipes towels in place of paper towels.

The in store pharmacy was closed.

New cashier in my lane was very abrupt, not friendly as I'm used to - the clerk bagging my groceries was a regular, made up for the cashier's attitude. No one working in store wore masks. Most shoppers did.
And the taxi driver was so very nice, waited for me to shop without charging extra - and carried things upstairs for me. Made my day.

Reporting from Houston's west side. hf

Glad I'm not in Houston anymore, but also glad they are holding their shit together. For now. blink

I'm in the Briar Forest/Memorial neighborhood. This part of it is a bit secluded. It almost has a small town feel about it. No sense of panic here. So far, so good.
