Absolutely NO FOOD at the Texarkana Walmart
No meat... no dairy... (a few tubs of margarine)... No frozen foods of any kind... (okay a few bags of frozen veggies)... Beer and wine section was well stocked for some godforsaken reason.

NO MEAT ANYWHERE! NONE! AT ALL!

All I could find to eat were a few boxes of taco shells and Rotel chiles. Dry pasta...gone. I was lucky to get one of the few 5-pound bags of rice left. Even in March of 2020, when the (fake) SHTF it wasn't even close to this bad.

So what did Wharf Rat do? I bought three sixers of beer, some rice, a can of refried beans and an expired deli salad ("Save $4.95"!)

Good luck out there, people. Might be a few days to a week before the supply-chain catches up.

Yikes...

If your first reaction is to go to Walmart for help then you already done goofed.

I'm like, "I rode my bicycle 3 miles in the snow & ice & slush for this??"

Well, yeah. Because I needed beer... hiding

Still... this was the most depleted I have EVER seen a grocery store in my life, and that includes the carnage of last March.

Wow.

Yup.

It wasn't my first choice, though... Most of the stores in town have been shuttered since Sunday night. So it's been about five days since 75,000 people here have gone grocery shopping.

Same in San Benito & Harlingen. Sams Club, HEB, local markets as well. We've been stocking up since Y2K so we're not hurting by any means but still crazy to see empty shelves repeatedly in less than a year.

I don't disagree, and I wasn't looking for sympathy. More of a "heads up" to any fellow Texarkansans who might be thinking about trying to get food this weekend... Hope you like Rotel

Thanks, beeches. Always nice to see you, btw.


Actually, it "began" when an F-350 dinged me with his side-mirror instead of moving over to the middle of the road trying to pass me.

J.F.C., I'm on a bicycle-- you're in a 4WD pickup! Have some common decency, man!

Got a nice little bruise for my trouble... but also 18 beers so I guess I'm calling it a 'win'

Bet the new border jumping illegals had fully stocked pantries from their newly issued EBT carbs. They need all the energy they can get to kill and rape Americans.

Actually I recently lost all mine in a tragic boating accident. Sucks...

*Edit = Texarkana is one of the Top 40 most violent cities in the entire USA. I've never seen a deer. Apparently they are smarter than me... (Obviously)
