Food court at the local Costco wasn't serving a bunch of items including pizza by the slice, you had to get a whole pizza if you wanted any.

I don't understand why Americans are afraid of poutine. Even if you ask for gravy with your fries you get funny looks. I know you guys eat a gently caress ton of gravy but the second it goes near a French fry all hell breaks loose.

Surreal trip to church today (Waterbury, CT). No fresh vegetables, frozen meat or fresh meat whatsoever. I hadn’t really realized in the past that the aisles themselves are products. But there were no aisles through the center of the store because everything was picked clean. Still loaded up on a hand full of things and we are set for an extended quarantine if we had to, but that was really weird.

Shwqa posted: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. I went to Sparks this morning and it was busy but not insane. Only really unusual thing was the line stretching halfway through the story for TP and paper towels (limit of 1 each). They had every single register open though. Only had to wait for one person to check out before I was up. Got one of those 15 pound NY strip loins and two big boxes of Cheezits and some ciabatta rolls.

Went to Costco today and it was amazing. EVERY lane was open, zero wait. Got some frozen beef and chicken plus some other random crap then pepperoni and sausage pizza from the food court on the way out. It was probably the most painless Costco trip ever.

Went to the 'co after procrastinating for weeks. Normally, my nearest one is crazy: impossible parking, slow people crowding every isle, etc. Today, they limited the number of people in the store, so had to wait in line. Pretty quick, got in, place felt empty. Fast to get around, no slow oldies clogging the isles, short wait at checkout, best trip in a long time. Also, I guess lots of folks didn't want to wait, so easy parking too. Despite being sold out of some items, and rationing others, 10/10 would shop during panic buying crisis again.

The best poutine I've ever had was in Tucson, Arizona. Nothing in Canada or Wisconsin has even come close which is shocking to me.

I honestly don't know how my friends that work on the front end haven't had nervous breakdowns this last week. We've have people working 12 hours shifts back to back to back and we're still struggling to keep up.

I went to my local grocery store that had a few sections that were cleaned out but most stuff was there and the staff was working like crazy getting everything restocked and manning the checkouts so it was actually a very smooth and quick experience. Mad props to the retail folks who are busting their asses during this time, seriously.

This is what I thought. Who in their right mind would say "Oh I need to get in on this!" You're better off driving a few hours away to a different store. Bunch of lemmings. gently caress that.

Made a trip to the Co. - No TP, paper towels, or baby wipes (these don't disinfect. Read the label.) - No hand soap or cleaning supplies. Simple green is available, and plenty of shower soap and shampoo. - No fresh meat or frozen vegetables. Plenty of frozen meat and fresh vegetables. Seafood all around. - No white bread, sliced bread, or other processed breads. Full bakery section full of baguettes, croissants, bagels, cakes, pies, and all other manner of regular fresh baked goods. - Rotisserie chickens available. - Saw someone buying 200 lb of flour. I hope they own a bakery. - The lady checking out at the register next to me ask the cashier if Costco opened early for executive members. She was not happy to hear that they did not and that Costco treats all of their members equally.
