“Said there was a riot at Costco over toilet paper...”

Yeah. “Seattle nice” only lasts for so long. I went to the hardware store for some more duct tape and plastic sheeting to add to my existing supply. (Create decontamination zones. Good for 100 other uses as well).

Then stopped by the grocery store to wander around (okay - bought a couple bags of chips). The hardware store had about half their supply of TP and paper towels still on the shelf. (Hint, hint). The grocery store was wiped out of that sort of stuff. Also the “feminine” articles.

I like your hardware store tip—most folks won’t be thinking that way.

I stocked up on junk food of all sorts—it lasts a long time, and we will eat it eventually.

Day to day we eat healthy...the junk food is for emergencies only. ;-)

Walmart sent a memo to U.S. store employees on Friday explaining how the company is responding to the novel coronavirus...The memo also discouraged face masks for general use, citing recommendations from the CDC.
