It’s crazy.
Hysteria. It’s like a snowball. Even if people aren’t worried they know everyone else will buy up everything so they have to buy now also.
Exactly my thinking.

That is correct. I bought Friday night (a few things) simply because there will be a shortage.
Now, admittedly, I do expect some levels will be close to normal in a couple weeks, once the initial panic is over.
I didn’t get much, couple packages of toilet paper (needed that anyways), a few canned goods (less than 20) and since no bread, yeah some extra tortillas and bagels (bagels only good for a couple of weeks). And since ammonia cleaner was cheap, a couple of those. I had already bought some cheap bleach a week ago or so.
But I’m a prepper. Always 6 months or so of food. I won’t eat like a prince, but I do have stuff to eat.
I bought my extra ammo many months ago. Pray (I do) that I never need it. But I don’t shoot it up.
