Went shopping yesterday - heads up
went shopping yesterday for staples.
6 can limit on tuna.
Paper products wiped out in each of 4 stores, covering a 30 mile radius.
I got lucky to get last bag of World's best cat litter (ground corn) at PetSmart.
Zero auto brake cleaner at wal-mart.
On edit: canned jellied cranberrys very hard to find here. Checked numerous stores & finally scored. Lol
Also large cans of Lipton ice tea mix. Nowhere to be found.
I've read canned goods & cheese are expected to be in short supply soon, so if you are in need it might be good to get some.
= new reply since forum marked as read
Chumputin has people groveling for toilet paper again. 
Small turkeys are usually hard to find, in my experience.
Maybe you can freeze some?
I'm contemplating a turkey breast instead off a whole bird this time.
Last Christmas the timer on my oven stuck (wide open) & bird was incinerated by the time I realized it. So I ended up at a really yummy Chinese buffet. That's not an option this year, though. 
Now, back in the days when I stuffed turkeys that size I'd have to get up in the small hours to finish and get it in the oven. I was definitely a lot more energetic when I was young, but smarts not so sure. How on earth did it take me 20 years to discover two 12-14 pound turkeys? 
Enjoy!
Years ago I had a cubicle mate that would bring tuna for lunch damn near every day, and eat it with hot sauce. Fortunately for us both he was moved before I formulated a proper method to murder him 
Well, I occasionally make tuna salad or casserole, but I usually buy a case of 48 cans every couple of months to share with homeless feral kitties in the neighborhood. I like for them to know if they come hungry, they will get a nice meal, especially in cooler / rainy weather.
Couldn't get it done yesterday, though.
Tuna and hot sauce? 
He kept adding more sauce, and I think he had burned out his taste buds and needed to increase his intake for the same "high."
That really sounds gross. Maybe he was trying to kill his taste buds cuz he was sick of tuna?
Well, in this (idiotic) area, they have difficulty ordering and stocking shelves anyway, regardless of pandemic. And much of it is management directives.
Once the roads here broke a "spring bolt" - big heavy bolt with a spring around it which supports car exhaust. I'm no expert, but to the best of my knowledge, they are usually used in pairs. So off I went to buy a pair, but was consistently told "we are only allowed to stock one." I was like, "You're joking right?" Bovine stares, no offense to the bovine neighbors.
But this is worse. When they impose limits, there is usually a reason, especially at Aldi. I went to 3 Aldis yesterday and they were all that way.
I usually buy a case of 48 cans every couple of months for me and to share with feral, homeless kitties in the neighborhood. Could not get it done yesterday.
Same here.
I used to always buy Aldi Supreme frozen pizza. No longer available. Tag taken off shelf. Cheese or pepperoni only.
Not a big deal, just an example of small inconveniences.
Sundae ice cream cones hardly ever available either.
Will check.
Sorry to say it reminded me of pix we see of animals & plants instantly frozen when last ice age hit.
The flowers were beautiful, though.
Glad things are getting back to normal.
Yes, hunkering down.
I bought a few cases of soup, 1 from each of 3 stores, rather than wiping one store out. But this is not put of the ordinary for me to stock up once per month since isolating in early March.
Was unhappy tuna was so pimited. I usually buy a case of 48 cans for both personal use & for homeless feral kitties in neighborhood once every couple of months.
Not sure what's up with canned goods. I've been reading there might be shortages on canned goods soon.
