“North of Atlanta”
I am hearing from co-workers people are driving out of Atlanta to find food for stocking. My brother in-law had to hit dollar general stores to find food.
That is possible. I have noticed a large difference in traffic around my neck of the woods.
The grocery stores are seemingly always more packed than before. So maybe the traffic is all heading to the grocery out of boredom during the day.
It angers me that people in and around Austin, TX continue to drive out to the rural areas like locusts and wipe out our grocery stores. They are ringing up $1500+ receipts. In our rural areas, there may only be 1 or 2 grocery stores in the entire county. It has taken a few weeks but HEB has put even lower limits on dozens of items to hopefully stop this invasion - see #165.
Last week, San Saba Co, TX, had their only grocery store burn. Thankfully, they rapidly found another building (a closed store) and are trying to get it into service.
