Same here on the pool supplies. A pool is a water source, they don't want us to have it. That's what I'm thinking. Also, there is a dog/cat food shortage here.

I have noticed over and above the regular sales of it. That people are stocking up on bleach.

Not just a normal purchase of a jug here or there but buying 6 to 8 large jugs at a time

Re: Two new shortages will really screw me up. Post yours!
Humbird, my brian tells me that you should go to the local grocery store or back to wally mart. Go into the household cleaning aisle, purchase one gallon of common household bleach to dump into the pool, if need be.

I would just put in orders online for any pool products that you need that walmart normally carries. Set the orders to be picked up at the local store to save on shipping.

As far as cat foods, look for the brands with the first ingredient is chicken. Cats generally are attracted to them more. Don't look for exotic "natural" brands as cats often reject those.

I can't think of the name of the brand but some of the cheap brands of cat food spray a crack-like oily substance onto the food that tricks cats into like it. Usually, though the cheapest cat foods will be ignored even by a starving cat.

Hmm, shortages. Other than penile short-ages that most males on GLP have. Low priced gasoline for one. I haven't encountered it yet, but the local grocery store owner said to stock up on meat because the prices are going to be insane. I am good on food now. I don't think it will be shortages as such that will be the problem. It will be the ridiculous prices that we will be expected to pay.


pool supplies and cat food!!!

Just this morning I went to weird wally mart because suddenly my saltwater pool is inhaling salt at warp speed. Manager asked if I knew what he knew . they are having pool supply shortages.

So I said I knew chlorine was scarce. He said no it's everything pool.

So I said my rescue outdoor cats are finicky and I can't get their favorite food. He admitted cat food shortages.


if I let my Moran Brian go full conspiracy, I wonder whether TPTB want to nix our pools and pets.

Anyone else?

Good answer! My current plan is to return to Wallyworld next week and load up on all pool supplies for the whole summer.pet food too. Even if the shortages ease up, nothing will get any cheaper

Convert to a salt water pool. Much healthier, cheaper, and lower maintenance. You could always distill it for drinking in an emergency and have fresh water and salt to preserve meat, trade, etc.
