I haven’t tried it before but sounds more appealing than powdered by a long shot.
I would expect issues for the next three months easily. I don’t think stores will be bare, but expect lots of things to be out of stock routinely. The runs on goods is really just starting as the average people are just now realizing this is real....
No doubt, don’t forget our four legged friends! Hell, I like my dogs more than the kids most days!
Down here in Louisiana, its 30 days right now. Some items are completely out for longer.
The store I work for does too, BUT at this time, certain items have been taken out of the ordering because of high demand and instead corporate is going to decide how much each store will be sent of the high demand items. Monday I started seeing the panic buying of TP. When I went back on Thurs, it was just about on everything. I never thought I would see cooking oil and flour totally depleated. This is worse than what we see during a hurricane scare. . . Our store is even talking about shutting down our hand to hand counters, bakery, deli, seafood and meat departments. The prepackaged items in those areas will still be available though. . . Mind you, we do not have even 1 case in our county, or the the next one over, or the next. . . People have gone scared of this and the media does not help one bit!
It’s just that the average citizens are finally catching on to the real possibilities that preppers have always thought about.
I've been hearing stories about people breaking into medical supply places to steal masks and stuff. It really is SHTF all around us. I told my boss we're watching the world end in slow motion.
Coworkers went shopping last night and today, looking for things we need around the office. At one store they found TP, and a few lysol wipes. But no hand sanitizer. So myself and a couple coworkers are going super early tomorrow morning because we heard from a source that they are getting a shipment in then. Our employees use it a lot working with the elderly so we need to get as much as we can. Fortunately my personal stash is good but I can't share with the whole company.
Just remember too that good old fashioned soap and water is good stuff to. Not always convenient but more effective they say.
Yes, we are encouraging handwashing too. But sometimes a sink isn't nearby and we have to clean our hands.
Make soap and water solutions in a spray bottle to wash hands and a water spray to rinse, then use paper towels to dry.
Exactly, my husband went to the store tonight (the more expensive store that is usually well stocked and was well stocked last night).
Unfortunately that does not wash hands for 20 seconds, which is what is needed to effectively remove germs from hands with soap and water. High-alcohol hand sanitizers simply dissolve many germs on contact (including coronaviruses).
I don’t think fear or paranoia is justified just now but agree that being aware of one’s surroundings is always wise. Ccw is too. Hopefully we won’t see this bring out the worst in people. I just hope it dosent drag on for too long.
What city is that grocery store in? I’m betting it’s all over now, especially in larger cities.
Gary try this for a beer
