so went to Costco for the shop and TP was gone paper towels gone signs up limit 1
they said that folks came in last night wiped them out so they put up signs limit 1 again restocked this morning first thing lines waiting to get in wiped em all out
then went to biz costco (which is dif then regular costco) where I get my meat and they were wiped asked a guy he said pretty much all of AZ got wiped of all TP and paper towels and at the biz one panic buyers with carts full of water etc…
at least I walked out with my meat
the meat was low way lower and lots buying so not sure if that is going to get a run on it to another covid panic all over ? OR just TP and paper towels ?
costco guys when I asked if they asked customers why they said people afraid of biden as pres and his shut down ?
costco guy had the same look I did hahahahahaha
Surprisingly, I’ve never been a Cosco member. I used to skip class and go there for pizza a lot though back in the day when I was going to Lake Wa tech :dance3:
Lol ok! The great meat shortage of the spring of 2020! I remember it like it was yesterday. meat processing facilities with sick and dying workers, lines for days, people knifing each other on line for the last can of spam. Those were scary times indeed! Barely survived May! Oh… wait… despite all the speculations meat was in abundance, costco had a crazy sale on pork loins. My local supermarket had a killer sale on beef brisket and prime rib. I’m talking $1.99 lb, pork butt 99 cents/lb. Tons of meat, fish canned meat…etc…
Limits? None here. I’m lying, there was a limit on tp, sanitizer, water and probably a few minor things I’m forgetting. However, I still don’t need to buy tp and haven’t since before the lockdowns. Neither water or sanitizer
I just bought a nice big pack of TP. Shelves looked like they were already starting to be picked over. Last time there was no TP on the shelves, or paper towels. Staples like flour, rice, pasta, potatoes, all quickly disappeared as well.
was more shocked it was happening AGAIN
if ya go into any stores this week will be interesting if its local or what just the TP meat seems OK this time
I was in that same supermarket yesterday afternoon and walked around a little. Didn’t see anything out of the ordinary. The briskets that were on sale again for the last 2 weeks were finally gone. Crab legs went down in price! A small sale on chicken thighs. I didn’t look too hard, just had to pick up something and this is what I noticed on my way to that isle
Probably. One side of the brain doesn’t know what the other side is doing or thinking.
Left side… orange man bad!!!
Right side…aaaahhh lockdowns…aaaaaahh…omg!!! We’re all gonna wipe our asses with something other than tp and starve to death while social distancing in our homes…aaaahh! Where can I get a mask for my hamster and goldfish!!! Sky is falling!!!
I lived out in the sticks and on a septic tank, My Sister and her four Daughters would come visit and jack it up every time.
I think they were flushing sheep sized wads of toilet paper every five minutes the whole time they stayed.
