Yes, they are like Sam’s club or Costco.

More Loratadine. I have a Mast cell disorder and an on 3 a day. Their JBJ’s brand is by far the cheapest (outside of Sam’s) of anywhere.

After that cheese. They have a fair amount with coupons. Hopefully TP. I bought a big pack just before this all went down, but it will not last forever.

Then other misc food items that keep well.

I’ve heard of freezing eggs but never tried it. Around here and up in NH there are egg stands all over the place so we can just stop by some roadside stand and pick some up.

There’s also a dairy farm not far from out NH house and we can get our milk right from the cow practically.

They do have an order online service and I was thinking about using that.

I’ll try calling the store and finding out how that works.

Tucker blasted govt for lying to us. Of course masks help. Just tell the truth and say you want to keep them for healthcare

This is a prime example of why you just cant trust the govt.

Well, zoo zoo zang the trump hating so called reporter on CBS This morning reported that Trump was lying and Cuomo was correct that NO theft was going on. Which of course is preposterous.

Countries with mass usage of masks have slow or linear growth of infection.

Countries that don’t use masks have exponential growth.

The Surgeon General needs a muzzle on him—my dog is much smarter.

It’s that second wave I plan on being ready for.

I thought I was ready for the first one, and I was to some degree.

But this situation went FAR, FAR beyond anything I ever expected. We have no precedent for the way this thing blew up and I think only a very small percentage of people were as prepared for it as they would have liked to be.

“Herd immunity” for those not at risk, effective treatment... the flubros may get the last laugh- if they ignore the costs, which they will.

I think the thing about the flubros that bothers me the most is their callous attitude towards the lives lost.

Those are just collateral damage to the flubros, a nuisance and inconvenience that is better dealt with to get it out of the way, so they can go on with their selfish, self-centered lives.

That's a lot . . . .

Aiming to test more than 750 people a day, the state’s only drive-thru coronavirus swabbing operation in Palm Beach County will open Tuesday morning and is already booked through Thursday after more than 330,000 calls flooded the lines seeking an appointment, health authorities reported.

A very good idea to help restaurants. Let them purchase in bulk from their restaurant distributors and sell at a profit to consumers for curb side pickup.

Should allow food, toilet paper, paper towels, whatever.

Michigan restaurants can sell food & pantry items to consumers, state says

“Beats letting it spoil on the shelves.”

They could make a killing.

They may not like the consumer to know that their fish comes frozen in a box from US Foodservice but they can roll it out like they are offering an expanded line that is available to them through their distributors.
