[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Great. So because of the food hoarders, the rest of us won’t be able to do a normal grocery run. Thanks guys. ?[/quote]

I think real hoarding must be happening in certain areas, not all over the place.

I'm in an urban area outside of DC that now has a fair number of confirmed coronavirus cases, and lots of morbid speculation about working from home. But my stores all have everything except for hand sanitizer.

My dollar stores have plenty of hand sanitizer, and huge amounts of the ingredients you need to make your own sanitizer (alcohol, aloe vera gel).[/quote]

Maybe it's in areas where most shopping is at big box stores? I'm also in an urban area with both big grocery stores and tons of bodegas. The only shelves I've seen empty are hand sanitzer and lysol spray at my local CVS (but they still had other disinfectant sprays). All foods are still completely stocked.[/quote]

FWIW it sounds like the Target, Walmart, Costco type places - and to some extend Whole Foods and TJs -are MUCH worse than the regular Harris Teeter or Safeway/Giant type of stores. [/quote]
