Same here for all the usual stores. We have a True Value Hardware store that tries to fill in the gaps between Walmart, the grocery and local lumber Companies. One gap being rancher’s supplies. So they have baby chicks for sale in the spring, and some limited farm equipment. And they have pressure cookers and jars etc. They got cleaned out too.
Just glad I have always managed to stay ahead of the shortages so far. Once hubby has finished the shed/root cellar, if there’s any leftover money, I’m going on a spree shop-anything that lasts forever and got short supply last time buy more.
Even Toilet Paper. When Covid hit, I had 9 month supply. Now I have 12, but I’ll get some more cause it lasts forever, should be a good barter item.
Plus if the kids had to come home, it’s be more like a 3 month supply. Ha. Course, I could make the kids use the phone book pages that I have stashed.(wish I was mean enough to do that).
We have recently used TP that I stored up in the attic, when Bammy got selected.
Works just fine.
Of course, we’ve stored NEW TP in the past year :)
I’ve got a good store of tp too.
I’m jealous of the canning lid find, but having just moved, I do know where they all are.
Maybe it’s time to move them to the gun safe.
