Yes, none at all at the big supermarket, but the local garden place with some groceries had some. $6 but worth it for my picky eater.

I ordered a patio umbrella in August. Lots of shipping delayed emails. Now the ETA is February.

Strawberries. My son loves them and I can’t find decent ones anywhere right now. I typically encourage in-season eating but he’s truly strawberry obsessed.

Fancy Feast tender liver and chicken pate cat food. Nowhere for months. Now I can find a few random cans sporadically. My cat’s favorite.

Prego creamy vodka sauce. I think it's fairly new (I first noticed it several months ago, but it's delicious and only around $2/jar!) and now I can't find it anywhere.

Lots of talk about inflation, energy prices, supply chain shortages. How is it affecting you personally? The pettier, the better, because we can't say these things out loud.

OB tampons, regular absorbency, impossible to find. They've long been difficult (only super or multi packs available in stores), but at least Amazon worked. Can't even order on Amazon now.

$4/gal gas in a time when WMATA is basically like, find some option other than Metro for getting around.
