[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes I think there will be some shortages and supply chain disruptions, as well as inflated orices for what supplies stores do have. You also can't predict what panic buying from consumers will do once the disruptions begin to show up.

So with that in mind, I've stocked our freezer with fish, meat, fruits and vegetables. I've stocked a deeper than usual pantry with dry goods including flour, rice, sugar, beans, pasta, and crackers. And stocked on up on canned vegetables we use like tomatoes and corn, as well as plenty of cans of tuna, salmon, and sardines. Also stocked up on seasonings and condiments.

Outside of food, I'm making sure we have extra of everything we use around the house. Hand soap, dish soap, detergent, plastic bags, paper towels, toilet paper, etc. And made sure to also stock up on cold meds and PPE supplies.

Basically, I wanted us to be able to go a few weeks without needing to go to the store, and to have enough supplies on hand that we can wait out supply chain disruptions or we can wait to buy things on sale if things get too expensive. [/quote]

We live in an NYC apartment and it is nearly impossible to stock food - our frig/freezer is just not that big. [/quote]

Can you get an under bed tub and store some dry goods?[/quote]
