Pro-tip: go tonight. Hide in the store overnight. Be in the back of the store in the TP section the instant the doors open.

I'm in Costco right now.... it was surprisingly dull for an apocalypse. No toilet paper, no papertowls, no dish detergent, no chicken, very little bread, very little canned fish. Everything else is normal.

Edit: There is a lot of alcohol being bought and a one eye man is yelling but I think that is just Reno being Reno.

No uniforms at my Costco. Everyone just wears casual clothes and has name tags.

I'm planning to go tomorrow for some non essentials. Double up on detergent, fabric softener, olive oil, etc. hope to catch the things the other co was out of like strawberry jelly and Cheezits.

If they're really full on supply maybe be a dick and buy one of the short freezers and fifty pounds of frozen chicken.

Took my son people-watching there, the other day. We gazed in wonder at the line to get to the back of the store for the nonexistent TP.

He suggested that maybe people think corvid is going to give them explosive diarrhea, for a month.

I was at the 'co a couple days ago and it was very tame. The TP/water/paper towel area was barren, but besides that, everything was fine, no big crowds. I'm surprised. Maybe things have changed since then

Same for me but I'm in a small city in Virginia and not at a west coast Co which seem so much busier in general

Ran to my local Japanese Costco, more or less no changes in inventory due to the virus I could see, however toilet paper was being sold by the those smaller packs of 6 rolls at around $4 each and you could only buy 2 per family, although the online store is still selling the normal larger packs. The food court also got rid of all their tables which expanded the cart parking area, so people just hung out and ate standing up. I've heard the place was a madhouse the past few weeks but it seems like things are stabilizing.

Also, our hotdog buns have sesame seeds on them.

I'm in the States but there is a brewery here with a mushroom poutine that is amazing. Their non-mushroom version is okay.

I didn't know poutine existed until a few years ago. I don't know why it's not huge here but I finally found it at a local restaurant. It was glorious. Wisconsin arguably has the best cheese curds in the world so it's just another way to deliver the cheese into my face. But with gravy.
