Went to Walmart after work this morning. The meat dept was very well stocked, so was produce! DA ( dumb a$$) was also well stocked, PLENTY of it as a matter of fact!! Yoga pants and pajama bottoms were also plentiful!!
I'd never heard of that - had to look it up.Buddig beef...for our traditional Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast family breakfast on Christmas Morning. I understand it is a recipe from the Great Depression, but it has been modernized, and now requires a specific type of beef that my wife will be visiting multiple stores for tomorrow. (Several failed shopping expeditions already today.)
That is my wife's family's recipe. I brought a baked egg dish recipe from my family. We do both every Christmas morning. Funny to see the kids gravitate to one or the other.

Maybe all the preppers in Utah hit it hard!Was shocked yesterday that the pasta aisle at our Walmart was almost bare. Don't know if they messed up stock levels or if it's an indicator of things to come, but it was eye opening. Local grocery store had full shelves of pasta, so who knows. Bought eggs for the 1st time in a while (lots of pumpkin pies to make) and was surprised that the cost between the pasture raised organic and the regular ones was less than a dollar a dozen...
Shtuff on a shingle!
I just put up 20 Lbs.Maybe all the preppers in Utah hit it hard!
That is such an easy prep to put up. I put mine in 5 gallon buckets with a gamma seal lid. The bucket holds 25 pounds. I left the spaghetti in the original packaging and stood it on end.I just put up 20 Lbs.
It really is an easy storage item, even the gluten free pasta we use has been fine well over the 3 years listed as the "expiration date" on the package. We rotate it out pretty lazily, but have definitely had some 7+ years with no issueThat is such an easy prep to put up. I put mine in 5 gallon buckets with a gamma seal lid.

I have become quite the internet shopper and I purchase a few items every week from Amazon. I really prefer to shop online now, because I can do it from the comfort of my home. I hate to shop in stores. I am so easily frustrated with how people act. I have a list, zip in and around and am out quickly, but other people, not so much and they create obstacles!I'm seeing so many complaints on social media about shortages of cold & flu meds, pics of empty shelves, they're talking about it in the news. Does nobody ever consider Amazon? That's where I get all mine.
Here are deals I found just in the last 4 days! I didn't buy any myself, I'm so well stocked up.
Propane tank filling is weird. Many places charge a flat rate, whether you need a gallon or complete refill and as you say, prices are wonky. I prefer to go to the local farm store, TSC here, and get my own container refilled and pay for what is actually pumped. Not sure the current price per gallon.Maybe I haven't been buying propane very often but our teenager and a buddy are living in our old motorhome and heating with a propane catalytic heater .
The price for filling a BBQ sized tank varies wildly just in our little town. With your own tank it can cost from 9 to 20$
if you want to trade a tank it is in the 20 to 30 dollar range.
If you want to buy a full tank it varies from $49.95 at our country market to $120 at a chain mini mart right on the freeway (which is also the turn off for the river and lakes).
What I know; We sell propane and tanks. Also fill them. Only the 20lb and 30lb. Tanks were $35.00 for a 20lb. Now, $58.00. Why? look around. We charge per gallon when filling motor-homes only. Why? because it takes an employee time and effort and takes that employee away from other services. 20lb have gone from $15 for years to $18 to now $21 per fill-up. Half full? then empty it before getting it filled. If thats an issue then contact those creating the issue as in most cases it has nothing to do with the retailers. WE do 100lb tanks too at $105. Take between 21.5 and 24 gallons. Yeah, pick them up and toss them in the back of a typical pickup at around 175+lb. Good part is that currently stock seems to be good but other than a few cold days it has not been too bad. If there is any confusion or questions I will try to answer with what bit of information as I know it.Propane tank filling is weird.

I was lucky to pick up a 100 lb propane tank at the dump/ transfer station. There are usually a number of 30 lb tanks there that folks just don’t want anymore. Perfectly good tanks, just ‘spring cleaning’ time. Anyway, when the fuel company came to fill the big house tank, the guy was more than happy to fill the 100 lb tank and would have filled the little ones. Better than money in the bank, he says, because they’ll keep and not go bad.
