wow..are the shelves empty in some of the rows in your grocery store?
Last week when I went to the grocery, some of the shelves were empty. I thought, o.k., this is not my regular shopping day maybe they are restocking. Well, this week I went on my regular day and the same thing...many shelves were empty. Usually in this large store they are running over. Anyone else seeing this?

Re: wow..are the shelves empty in some of the rows in your grocery store?
Dude, I remember in 2002 for about 6 weeks I could not buy my daughter's nappies for love nor money. I would ask the droids who worked there and they would always tell me the "oh we've got them on order - they'll be here later this week" line.

6 weeks?

Anyway, in that time I drove (a looooong way) to another town to get them.

A while later they had them and pretended they always had them.

And this just with nappies? Seriously mate, supermarkets just run out of stuff sometimes. Just because it may be rice (once you've all panic-bought) does not mean it's time to duck and cover.

They are probably having trouble with deliveries due to the gas cost. Don't get paranoid.

I haven't noticed empty shelves, but I have definitely noticed fewer products on the shelves. I do a "big shop" once a month for most of our groceries and after I got through there were a few empty spots. There are only 3 in my family, so it isn't like I am feeding an army.

I haven't seen a grocery store that was not fully stocked here in NJ. I've been to Shoprite and Stop and Shop, and they both looked normal. I know, that's only two, but it's two of the big ones here.

Every business is cutting back on inventory so they don't have money sitting on the shelves.
Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.

What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!

when you rob Paul to give to Peter ... ... ... you will always get Peters support!

Where the hell do you live???? There are absolutely NO PROBLEMS with groceries here.

The only odd thing is that at Sams, you are limited to 200 lbs of rice per person per visit. But there is an ample supplies with no shortages of it, though the price is up 10 cents/lb.

I shop at a military grocery store called a commissary. A lot of stuff gone and signs up saying people are limited to no more than 20 lbs. of rice. I thought that was so bizarre, as I didn't think the U.S. was undergoing a rice shortage (not exactly a huge staple here). Does make one wonder. Going to a different, civilian store tonight. Will see what their shelves are like.

Unfortunately, the military will always be one of the few first to experience the worst in the beginning.

Civilian life is easier.

Food is plentiful but they'll get more for it if they can convince you it isn't
