If you think that it's stressed now then wait until millions of people get their stimulus checks this week, I'm going to two stores today and topping off my preps and my gas tank.
Quoting: Storm2come I didnt think of that. I want to do one last run. When exactly do people get some money? PS...I love threads like this OP. Most should receive their checks on the 15th,(Wed.). I just got back and The Local Walmart was 60% stocked, the local Harps was 50% stocked, both were rationing paper products and basic long shelf life items, the stocker told me that they get picked clean everyday by noon and are bracing for the wave of people they expect when the checks start coming in. Do you think all of the new "control" measure at the grocery stores are a preparation for this expected rush? Reduced hours, limited access, marks on the floor telling you where to stand, one way traffic...the timing seems about right. Yes. The limits on items as well as the limits on shoppers will help them keep up but it doesn’t represent the full demand. Lines will get longer and tempers will get shorter. I wonder if we will see u expected places start to sell some food items such as Lowe’s and Home Depot? Some restaurants are already selling direct - Panera and Waffle House.
