Tabonga | 2,533 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) We have dairy delivery - that is something to look into (if available in your area) - and you can get a wide variety of dairy products - they tend to be a bit more expensive but they are for sure better quality wise, they deliver and you don't have to worry about what is on the shelves. We have a standing order but we can vary it as needed each week. Edited March 17, 2020 by Tabonga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skorp | 387 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 My Target has fully stocked milk when I went there today, so they are restocking often and limiting everything now so hopefully this shortage thing won't occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Californication | 1,491 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) I was taking the bus home yesterday afterwork and when I was at the bus station there was a young black kid on the phone talking about how he got all the lysol wipes, sprays, and hand sanitizers they could sell. It was def. surreal hearing someone talk about cleaning products like they were making a drug deal. Looking back I should have probably punched him in the face Edited March 17, 2020 by Californication Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves | 12,268 Administrator · Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Here in Canada it's been declared that groceries are an essential, so they're going to all stay open. Bars and restaurants and other gathering places have been told they have to shut down. As an aside, I've only had my toes in the stock market (I use Wealthsimple) for around 2 years now, and mostly it's been all up with lots of gains/returns. Seeing my portfolio suddenly $2k in the hole is admittedly a bit scary, but I'm going to do as suggested and stick it out rather than panic exit.

You can reliably freeze milk. Also, if you buy the stuff in the paper cartons, it is usually labeled as good for 6-8 weeks with just normal refrigeration.

ICrappedMyPants | 302 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Grocery stores are out of meat near me, NW burbs of Chicago. My wife and kids only eat meat and limited fruits and vegetables due to food allergies/sensitivities. I’ve resorted to ordering meat online for a little bit more than my normal cost (talking organic grass fed beef and organic chicken). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in all seriousness, this is a serious situation the likes of which have not been seen in 100 years. We really do have to do everything we can (economically and otherwise) to get this coronavirus thing over and done sooner rather than later.
