I’m surprised they have power

When I lived in Washington there was a 100 year ice storm and even Walmart had no power for several days

Most stores are looking something like that here right now.

When I was in Tom Thumb on Tuesday I think I go the last bagged salad they had.

In a Kroger today and most of the chilled produce shelves were empty or close. Bread aisle almost completely empty. There were maybe a half dozen loaves of multigrain and wheat store brand bread left. I got one of them.

Went to check and power is still out at my house so I restocked on some groceries and clean clothes for the hotel.

I saw something like this in person yesterday in TN. A year of scamdemic has rewired peoples' brains to panic buy now. Pretty much all the meat, dairy, and bread was gone. Shelves almost cleared out. At first I thought it was that they'd missed their deliveries for a couple of days, but at the checkout I saw the same kind of overstuffed shopping carts we all saw last March.

All because of a severe cold snap of ice and snow that was due to last no more than 4 or 5 days.

Can confirm,

went to store today,

last two days I drove there and left, 2 hour wait outside, the only place in town open.I normally buy 300$ worth of groceries every 5 days avg and the entire store was cleared out of everything.


Except dumbasses left all the good stuff behind. Except meat. Luckily I had bunch of frozen fish, beef, chicken etc


I still bought some sea bass 8$ for 6 ounces n lobster tails.

To me I didn’t skip a beat on my diet.


The dumbasses who I laugh at are ones stocking up on a months worth of water for 2 days is the real problem

Also all the bread was cleared out, juices, and fruits.


Funny thing again, organic stuff left behind, I still got beets, broccoli, tomatoes, blueberries. Still had some blackberries tho.


90% of people’s carts looked like


3 cases of 24 packs, a months supply of water, a months supply of whine bottles, toilet paper, bread and soda packs.

What blows my mind is if you open up your ****ing weather app you’ll notice the longest this could possibly last is 7 days.

Why are these retards stocking up like it could be months? Lol

All you have to do is buy a normal weeks worth of food like a normal person.

It's so weird for me to think that a few days of sub-10' temps absolutely wrecked a good portion of an entire, huge state, so badly. I get that it was a bad ice storm, but holy chit. We've been dealing with temps regularly hitting -20' F for like 2 weeks, just now finally starting to legit warm up. Plus, our idea of "warm" right now is only days with high temps of ~15' F or so. Clearly, their infrustructure and power grid style needs some serious reassessment after getting rekt so badly like that, even if it was a "once a century ice storm" for the area.

I'm just across the border. I have power, walmart had full shelves, and very few had masks on.

We had the same weather, just small differences in how things work. Stuff like not having water pipes in the attic or walls and not being on our own power grid.

I feel for my buds down south, Texas was no prepared in the least for this. Heartbreaking seeing homes ruined.

So many houses are being damaged. I guess there is no easy access to turn off the water valve in a lot of these houses?

[outube]0unopTUfvYw[/youtube][/QUOTE]A shocking amount of people don't know where the cut off is located in the house. And it's impossible to find the cut off outside when it's buried in snow. And it can ruin a home in less than 30 minutes. Should be one of the first things you locate when purchasing a home, and make sure everyone in the home knows where it's at in case it happens. Water and fire can destroy a home in no time.

This, I stocked up last Saturday like a person who isn’t a moron and there was plenty of food and milk left at the store. The worst is basically over and now these idiots start panic buying. Gotta love it.

I got meat and cheese and bread on Sat and just rode it out with that and the stuff I already had.

Went by the grocery yesterday and it was packed.

My prepper friends who live in the country ate MRE's they had stored and used their generator.

It's not illogical. They're doing it because they know other people will do it. Game theory in action

It’s logical only if one was an idiot to begin with and didn’t stock up a week ago when we knew this was coming.

I kind of thought I had it covered. Pizza dough ready to bake in the fridge. Chicken poached and shredded to make enchiladas.

this is why restrictions need to be put in place when natural disasters happen. i have been seeing signs that say "limit 1" and "limit 2" since the pandemic began. walmart refuses to do that.

My power went out too, I just moved perishables into the garage and they were fine. I also stocked up on protein bars, bread for PB and Js and other items that dont need to be cooked. MREs are also an option but since this was only supposed to last a week at most I didnt bother obtaining any. I admit I’ve been on tons of camping trips and was a scout so I have some experience with this kind of thing and being ready for the worst case scenario, so I get that everyone does not necessarily have the same knowledge, but I bet people will definitely be more prepared next time. “Be prepared” is the scout motto and is definitely the most important life lesson I took from being one.
