No hand sanitizer, had to get Quilted Northern instead of Charmin, but other than that things were pretty much normal.

Albertson’s Costco and other’s are limiting meat purchases. If you are going to have any chance to get chlorox wipes you better be waiting in line before they open. Ask them what days they get their deliveries in.

I did about a month ago, but not today. Things are better than they were.

A couple of local burger chains announced permanent closures, wonder if it is related to a shortage at all.

No, but expect a bunch of stupid meat shortage threads all weekend.

It is after all a beautiful weekend and everyone is stuck at home and will want to grill

I can afford real butter. I actually prefer real butter to margarine for some dishes. But margarine is what I typically buy because I use it for the oil/non stick properties when cooking things like eggs and toast.

Sams in Covington hasn't had chicken the 4 times I've been in the past 2.5 weeks.

Very little ground beef too

Not that I’ve seen but I’m seeing limits for red meat at Super One

Hadn’t noticed at my favorite hometown store though.

We don’t get a meat truck on Thursday nights so it could be depleted tomorrow.

But we put out a decent amount of stock last night

Went to a Walmart today in Houma.

The meat case was substantially full except for a few spots.

6.59/lb. for 80/20 at the neighborhood store. Chose the ribs instead.

Yes, last time I went to Walmart they had very little. Even out of a lot of can goods.

I haven’t stepped foot in a grocery store since early March.

ETA: I have CCHF so I’m “high risk” . My paranoid wife who treats me like the boy in the bubble does all the shopping now.

Tried to order a JBC from Wendy's yesterday in Dublin Ohio and they were all out of meat. Wendy's is basically a Chic-Fil-A at this point

I can’t understand why y’all are shopping at Walmart’s during this mess. I hate being there during normal times so I can’t imagine now
