    Went to Costco this evening. Looked like a day before and hurricane cleaned out. People from Tijuana are in fear the border is going to be closed so now they are hording.
    When I was a kid my parents told me to turn it down. Now I'm an adult and my kids tell me to turn it down.

    That reminds me of an old buddy went to get (loot) a TV from circuit city during the 92 riots. He came back looking like that saying you should have seen the Sony I got. I said where is it? He said they beat his **** and took it. He pretty much looked like that but he still had his shredded bloody shirt on.

    Went to Sam's around 9:00 this morning. You would think it was the Christmas shopping season the way the store was packed. They were out of bottled water, TP, hand sanitizer, chicken ****, ground beef, and Jack's pizza. People were stocking up on everything available like the apocalypse is here. I did not see any fights though.

    Good thing I like chicken, the wife says no hamburger left at store - or potatoes, onions, or bananas.

    The craze has finally hit out by me. Never thought I'd see Costco with empty shelves and empty refrigeration units. Jewel grocery stores and Trader Joes also taking a beating.

    I do like looking at other peoples carts, just to see what they consider end of the world food. One guy had his cart full of Mountain Dew....another stacked high with frozen pizza. Still others, all snack foods, canned goods. Among all the scurrying around by crazed shoppers, emerges one old lady taking her time, with a cart full of wine.

    See, old folks can prioritize. :)

    Then when all the fresh meats produce etc are restocked restocked the grocery stores will have to throw away the spoilage because everyone is stocked with no room.....what a waste

    Same here in Chula, People from Tijuana that can cross over are coming and cleaning out all the can buy. they are scared the border will get closed.

    I tried going to Sprouts and Trader Joe's this morning. Nope parking lot is full. Darn it I need Chorizo, onion and bell pepper.

    My saving grace is my daughter is married to a military man, as long as the local Navy commissary don't get hit by the panic.

    Stay safe my friends it will be a bumpy few months.
    When I was a kid my parents told me to turn it down. Now I'm an adult and my kids tell me to turn it down.

    Are you kidding me, first they come to steal our jobs and services but now they want to take our necessities. Is the Border Patrol doing anything about this?

    There are a lot of people from Mexico that can come here legally. My neighbor said TJ has been cleaned out for over a week with no restock scheduled. People that can cross come and load up for resale.

    In 9 months hospitals will be over run with child birth, they will call them corona babies.


    My daughter went to the commissary to get bread, she said they are getting cleaned out too. Well we have bread, now I just need to find Chorizo.

    Brother in-law was at an Asian store to get rice. They had to be there at 8am to get a number. The shipment of 100 25lb bags arrived @ 11am, He said a fight broke out. Not good fighting over rice.

    Verb! Bud Light?! Seriously?! 🤔

    That’s stuff is only good for cleaning toilets, so I guess it does go along with the bathroom tissue section. Smart store manager! 😂
