Re: Stores empty
Ran into the local Jewel/Osco yesterday to get a few items.
All the Paper and Sanitizing aisles were of course empty and each empty place had a sign hanging that read "1 Per Customer Please" on it. An employee rolled out a skid with cases of Toliet Paper and Paper Towels as I was passing by which were emptied without him even stocking the shelves. When I got to the checkout a man 4 customers in front of me is checking out with a 6 pack of T/P from one brand and an 8 pack of T/P from another brand. The cashier says "1 per customer sir" and he replies "They are not the same brand!" To which she says "Pick ONE!!" She proceeded to take the other and put it behind her register. Another fine example of someone hoarding attempting to cheat his fellow Americans. She should have done like on Seinfeld, taken all his groceries away since it was clear he thought he was pulling a fast one! :-D |

Re: Stores empty

Re: Stores empty
Everything the same in Az. I hate Walmart but caved in as they had milk and some meat
We are in a Hotel as our new house was flooded and insurance put us in a room. The hotel had free breakfast and supper so we didn't really care about shopping. Now hotel halted service and we had get stuff to eat and was surprised on how empty the shelves were. But found enough to get by for a week. |
