[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I ventured out this morning to the local grocery store for produce, because we had zero fresh fruit left, and the only veggies in the fridge were liquefying celery.

There were a lot of people there shopping for 8am!
A lot of very quiet staff restocking the shelves.
Not a single person wearing a mask. 
No possible way to stay 6ft away form each other, even at 8 am.

I hope I didn't catch it from that trip - I feel it was a stupid one. Too soon to wear a mask because no-one was, and too soon to feel safe from others, because so many other people out, but late enough to be really dumb. 
These veggies better make my kids happy. [/quote]
Isn't that hour of shopping reserved for elderly and those with other compromising issues? Honor system, I realize, but still.  [/quote]

All stores? I looked up the chain online to see if they'd narrowed hours for cleaning, and whether/when they had senior hour, and didn't see anything. No signs anywhere there either.

It’s inconsistent. I think one store near me is just two days a week: Tuesday and Thursday. It needs to be better spread out like Monday and Thursday. If, as a senior, you miss getting something on Thursday, the wait until Tuesday can feel long. [/quote]
