I drove into town this morning and did my grocery shopping at Tops Market, got everything I needed and a few items more with no fuss whatsoever... they had Ronzoni pasta at 10 for $1, got a few kinds. Why can't you drive to the closest local market to shop??? I order items on line but only when I want bulk and items by the case... I can't be bothered to order picyune items for delivery, just causes grief... you deserve the grief. I do much better picking out my own produce and meats... but if I want a case of #10 cans of tomatoes that I'll order on line, comes right to my door, same with bulk cat/bird food. I don't even want delivery for one schtinkin head of lettuce. I'll bet our monthly Chewy bill (~$400) is more than your monthly grocery bill, Julie you are not well, I mean mentally. We've never considered ordering a loaf of bread on line to be delivered... perhaps from a local corner bakery. |

Popeye, Tops market is certainly the finest store in the universe. But they don't have a huge chain, so most folks can't enjoy the bliss of buying there. |

Because we're on lockdown and not supposed to leave our house. I am in the high risk group and due to my impending surgery, I have to be extra careful not to get sick. So I am avoiding people. I did go to the dentist where Angela works and also to get my hair trimmed as the general consensus is that Governor Inslee will put us on further lockdown soon and close those places. I don't want to have to go months without another haircut. You are right in that I'm not well, but it's all medical. Not mental. I tried Chewy once. Too expensive. Wasn't worth it. I get the Target brand cat litter. I get treats and foods at Walmart. Jazzy only eats dry food. Things should settle down with the online orders once people stop the hoarding. Right now, they still are. And due to restrictions on in store shopping, it's far quicker and easier to have the food delivered. I did make a quick stop at the bread store last week only because I wasn't having luck finding bread anywhere else. They didn't have what I wanted, but I did get some bread and there is still a little bit left. |

Chewy's prices are substantially lower than anywhere else, they carry every major brand with a huge selection of dried, they carry food for all critters; fish, chickens, horses, gerbils etc., and deliver for free. Besides foods they carry many critter associated products from fish tanks, bird cages, feeding bowls, and lots of pet toys.

I've not seen any signs of hoarding... for items we buy in quantity we shop at BJs, they sell cleaning products by the gallon/case... they sell TP in bulk, all you want. We buy Dawn dish washing liquid in gallon jugs. We buy in bulk for the cash savings, always costs a lot less. It's no biggie to refill the small Dawn bottle from the gallon jug. I still see people buying single rolls of TP... they'd almost do better wiping with dollar bills. With all the hand washing recommended I wash my hands with Dawn, does a very good job and no irritation, I figured if it's good for washing crude oil from birds I'd try it, works very well, I even use Dawn for shampoo, costs less than the name brand shampoos and need to use less than half as much. Actually I now put a few drops of Dawn on my washcloth and bathe with Dawn, does a great job, lots of lather, and is very mild... also rinses off much better... at the same time cleans your tub and no soap film. |

I've heard of BJs. We don't have them here. I hate buying giant sizes of most things as they are too hard to heft around. I get a case of small bottles of laundry soap from Boxed. They are the store brand of some big box store but I couldn't tell you which one. They fit on the skinny cart in my laundry room. The reason for the hoarding here is that we are on lockdown. We are not supposed to leave the house. Some people (younger, no medical problems) are going to the store but no vey often so they stock up as much as they can. Or Governor has also said (although not in an official press conference) that he might shut the grocery stores down and at one point some time ago, instructed us to stock up on two month's worth of provisions. Then he wonders why people are hoarding, |

Then he wonders why people are hoarding, BJ's is the same as Costco and Sam's Club. I went Monday and there was not a paper towel or toilet tissue to be had. Hoarding started again when the news said it may be in short supply soon so everyone ran out and bought up. Crazy, no matter how you normally shop you only crap so much a week so no reason to have a two year supply on hand. |

I accidently bought that lavendar scented TP twice and it's so very nasty. I've learned to look closely at the wrappers. |

Never did care for printed flowers on toilet paper, either. That was a "thing" (briefly) back in the day. Don't need pretty flowers printed on toilet paper, or on paper towels. I digress... One day shortly after this whole hoarding thing started back in March, after the TP disappeared from even Walmart shelves, I was at the gas station convenience store looking for Slim Jims. (kidding!) A thought popped into my head: I wonder if they have toilet paper? Yep! Cheap, never heard of brand, four roll packs. Apparently no one ever thinks about buying TP at a gas station convenience store. ![]() Jill |

Then he wonders why people are hoarding, Paranoid much? That's not going to happen. Food and medicine are necessities. Besides, vaccines are approved and on the way soon. Speaking of hoarding. I went to the grocery store yesterday. As I entered the store, one woman was leaving the checkout with a basket full of toilet paper and paper towels. I guess they don't have limits anymore like a couple of weeks ago. Anyway, while I was shopping, here was that same woman back in the store with a new grocery cart buying regular food. |

Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you...€ > Marvin 8:12-17 And it came to pass that jesus lifted up his robes and pounded the holy sausage before the multitude. They all marveled when it squirted. And they knelt to prey. This I give unto ye, that ye may become wise unto mens. And ye shall go forth and make thy sausage. But ye shall never use mystery meat. And ye shall never eat thy neighbor's sausage. Yeah, Ye may eat his wife's squirting pussy, but not his sausage which he hath pounded. Yeah, verily, I say unto ye that whosoever blasphemes the holy sausage law shall be put to death. AMENS |
