When I stopped in to irritate my GF earlier today the nurse mentioned she had been at Costco early in the morning and been unable to get some staples she really wanted. I told her I would see what I could do.
A ran my necessary errands and drove by Safeway. Couldn't get into the parking lot. OK, no biggie. Finished my errands and went to Raley's (a high end grocery chain in my neck of the woods). The parking lot was more full than I had ever seen it, including the day before Thanksgiving. The bread shelf was 90% empty. Milk was still OK. Butter was almost wiped out. Meat was almost wiped out. Paper products were wiped out. Pasta and rice were gone. There was a kid throwing pasta sauce into a shopping cart like it was free beer.
There was a little old Italian guy in line ahead of me with a FULL grocery cart. When they bagged it they had to put it into two carts. It came to over $500 with zero booze and zero meat. All staples.
Hey guys, come on. They are going to stop making groceries. Cows are still giving milk. How much buttwipe can you really use?
