Mid west city I go to many grocery stores and laugh when normies repeat their fake news about Christ shelvs gonna be empty. End of summer I saw shelves be removed from house goods buy out stores, TJMaxx type, but Home Goods was getting very bare. By early Nov the boxes to unload were covering the stores. Christmas items had come in, late, but were there.
Now I go to many grocery stores and only recently see empty shelves, prepared salads mostly. I don't recall other items disappearing. I do keep extra on hand and store freeze dried survival food for my NPR son and his family.
He is sure he can walk to the store if an emergency happens. KEK
