Has anyone been stocking up on supplies? I'm trying to figure out the right way to do this, honestly. Based on my stop at Woodman's today, the panic buying is getting nuts.
Down 1 w 5 seconds left. Doable.
If it comes down to it, check out places that you wouldn't generally to expect to sell things like toilet paper, hand soap, canned food, etc., e.g., Family Dollar, Dollar Tree, and, believe it or not, many local gas stations.
Said that to a friend of mine yesterday who rolled her eyes at me as if those are all below her. I hate my age group.
I'm not privy to the details as my sources are busy and military (so not necessarily directly involved) but the bones of it sound like shuttering of non-essential businesses, schools, and no unnecessary travel(airports closed or limited). Don't know more than that.
So, in theory, I'd still be able to drive from my home in Chicago to my in-laws in Lake County, IL? That's all I'm really concerned with at the moment. We are going to be relying on them for child care.
All WI k-12 schools closed 3/18-4/6, per Tony Evers order.
Yesterday I went to CostCo and then Meijer. CostCo was very busy .. I hear today it's a freaking zoo, with lines reaching the back of the store.Meijer, on the other hand, was great. It was busy, but they had everything in stock (minus TP) and it was quite orderly.My guess is Target/Walmart/Meijer is a far better place to shop during these panic days.
I have heard from someone who has been dead on all of this since early January that the "lockdown" is going to be for NY, CALI, WASH and NJ. Though I would think areas in Colorado and Chicago now too.My GUESS would be no travel in and out of the hot zones.
Interesting article that judging by the cruise ship data where everyone was tested, that the overall mortality may be lower than believed, although still very high for the elderly.https://www.sciencenews.org/article/coronavirus-outbreak-diamond-princess-cruise-ship-death-rate
Maybe I should go smoke some weed, aina?
I have been. Plan to continue to, at least until the Army closes the interstates and I can't get to Rockford. Aina.
i was at pic n sav waukesha/south at about 2 pm. i was expecting the worst. nothing. i walked right up to and thru self checkout. the cashier lines(all 4 of the 7) had maybe 2 waiting while one cashed out. i did not even attempt to get toilet paper, hand sanitizer, rubbing alcohol as i have plenty at home. the only thing they were out of that i had on my list was self-serve feta/kalamata olives.
