I was in two today. Had almost all items. A little low on some breads. Rice and dried beans were still really low.

Toilet paper and paper towels were low, but available.

Didn't look at hand sanitizer or hand soap.

I think the panic buying is over unless the government announces something stupid.

Old people here in Florida are still buying everything not bolted down.

Not that this has anything to do with the stock level in stores, but I was surprised to hear President Trump say that we would probably be out of the woods on this by July/August. I understand why he would be conservative on the estimate, though.

I really thought he was going to say April/May. Just seems more realistic to me. We shall see.

I'm with you on that. By the end of April people will be telling the government enough of the hysteria. We are resuming life.

The Ridge Langensteins was wiped out of the staples this evening. Friday it was fully stocked.

Was like that last night at a new Food City right out of East Ridge across the Georgia line.

Guy told us trucks were coming.

They had it all restocked this morning.

Bread, meat, and paper goods were empty last night. Available at 11 AM today

Same for neckbeards and tats in Texas. I haven't seen, and hope to never see this again. The worst thing is the millions of tons of milk, meat, produce, etc. that's going to hit the trash over the next few weeks as it spoils from overbuying.

I hit a couple of Walmarts around Austin, the vultures had picked them clean. Weird though, fully stocked with beer.

Not here, fricking derelicts continue to hoard toilet paper

And now they are crushing the frozen food sections and fresh ground beef.

According to a report on FB the local Wally World is cleaned out in the TP, frozen, dairy/eggs and water sections.


When these heathens decided they need bottled water I have no idea.

Fauci I believe clarified that later and said the last cases will be until then but things will be back to normal for most far before then.

Which one did you go to?

I went to both Food City stores in East Ridge. One up by the tunnels wasn't that well stocked, but the new one right across the Georgia line had everything. It was wiped out yesterday.
