I made my last trip to the grocery stores today including walmart. Panic buying has officially set in here in the boonies. Canned goods, pasta and sauce, big bagged cereal and any healthy boxed cereal, rice and of course paper products wiped out. Exceptions were split pea soup and clam chowder. Went to a grocery store a mile down the road and they had plenty of canned veggies but most soups were gone, no potatoes, no rice or paper products.

I walked around walmart with a smile on my face because I had already slowly stocked up over the past 2-3 weeks. One woman said, Have you ever seen such a thing. I said, Not for a while. Saw it when I lived in FL right before a hurricane.

Only thing we still need is a few gallons of milk but we can get those whenever over the next week.

I heard soups were out here, too.

Whew, found a misplaced bleach jug at home.
