What are you seeing at the grocery?

32. I live in a NE African American neighborhood.

It is solidly lower-middle class. Mostly single family homes.

If I go to Marc's, they have most things, but some things remain in short supply. Paper products, and wipes, alcohol, PPE, Lactaid milk, some brands of hot dogs, beef, chicken wings are scarce and expensive, there are no whole birds. Beef has doubled in price for common cuts and hamburger. The premium grade of ground beef is gone. All raman, most noodles are gone. Flour and yeast are still scarce there.

Some of the other stores are only partially restocked. The CVS nearest us is distressingly empty. Coolers are half-full. A series of signs at the entrance list what they don't have including wipes, sanitizer, alcohol, o2 meters, vitamin D, PPE are all gone. Coke is well-stocked, though no diet coke.

I drove 2 miles to the wealthy and white neighborhood near our premium mall. It has Neiman Marcus, Saks 5th Avenue, a Lego Store, etc. There is a Giant Eagle nearby. They have everything. Limits on PPE, wipes and Alcohol, good diversity of meats. Prices were noticeably lower on ground beef. Leaner cuts were available. Everything was stocked.

I also stopped at a gas station that had TP and paper towels.
