I have mentioning that to some of my younger friends (20yo) they are living through a crisis , watching history unfold right in front of their eyes. They will have stories to tell their grandchildren. NRA benefactor member

They will get further deliveries but were told they will not their full orders. Bryce

They were very busy like saturday morning would be . They seemed well stocked . They had tp , wipes , soap and all the food staples there were bargains on cheese , bacon frozen cooked chicken products , canned goods,and cereal .

Wife goes to town every 2-3 weeks, so we always are planning ahead. If not we have wise food in the basement for a few months. Interesting and sad to see this happening. Hopefully the masses will learn a thing or two, but I’m not counting on it Everything the left touches it destroys

We have Amish nearby that have the same type bulk food stores. Haven't heard whether they're still stocked up on stuff or not. It's a good store to get different bulk pasta's and spices.

There was 4 bags of dog food left, thankfully the right brand and flavor. That surprised me. Got one. Plenty of scissors. Decided to walk around and look cause the parking lot seemed pretty active, but I wasn't seeing anybody. Well, they were trying to buy ammo in sporting, but the rest were in the food/cleaning supply section. Wasn't anything but a few generic brand napkins in the paper products isle. Maybe 6 cases of water and people moving toward them. Can good isle, pasta, and a few others had bare sections. And folks were moving at a pretty good pace. The aspirin, ibuprofen, etc. isle was almost completely empty. I felt like I had walked into a movie scene or something. Nothing frantic, but a sense of urgency seemed to be in the mood of most people. Common sense is gone.....havent they heard that taking ibuprofen if you have Covid 19 can be deadly ? Talked to a friend from Sacramento today. He's on the fire department/ ambulance there. He said their response time has went from 4 minutes to 8 in the last few days and they expect it to go up to 30-35 minutes before its all over... do unto others as you would have them do unto you www.grizzlycreeklodge.com

They may be having some sale or something but that place was packed. Most looking at AR's. I have never seen that store with that many at the gun counter.

Things like hidden valley ranch, boneless skinless chicken breasts, a particular kind of bread. Only thing they didnt have that I was looking for was Jif creamy peanut butter. They also had TP and bottled water, though I didn't look at cleaning supplies. Store wasn't all that busy for 6pm on a weekday. They also had plenty of beer, so that's probably contributing to a lack of panic.

I strolled on by the toilet paper and paper towel aisle just to see what they hype was about. Yep... completely empty. and I mean completely empty. Nothing. Nada. There was a large box from the stock room that used to hold napkins... really? Real name Eric The sharpest hammer in the box of crayons.
