Honest to goodness true. Can’t get half of a super basic cook from scratch boring grocery list. I’ve posted many times we’ve had Venezuelan grocery shelves for years less than 2 hours outside the city. It’s a real HEB chain grocery store. The excuse is usually the truck didn’t come or it wasn’t on the truck. The best excuse was “The truck will deliver some tortillas tomorrow... Ok, exactly how many tortillas?... One... Is that one case or what?... One 8 count package.” How the heck can a store order ONE package?!? But that’s the norm. When you’re the only game in town and for miles around, you can treat your customers like dirt.

A life time of shopping there ended the first of March and covid making the shelves more empty. Now, we’re driving a few towns over to the nearest grocery at Wallyworld. It’s still difficult trying to get items but not so bad. Even Wallyworld has had zero Lysol, Clorox, tech stuff, ginger of any type and had to holler at them to get one little 3 pk of yeast since March.

How’s your shopping? Are things difficult or fairly easy?
