>>13782231
Retards bought it all in panic. It'll be back next delivery

>corona virus is mentioned on the news today
>cousin buys a pump action shotgun and 60 rounds of ammo
>"I think this time around we need to be safe."

>>13782271
Then another delivery man will take his place

>>13782301
wow humans really are like insects

>go to store
>plenty of vegetables and foreign food
based retards

Panic buying is pretty light out here. Main casualties besides the obvious are tomato sauce/paste and most frozen pizza.

>>13782252
>shotgun
>rounds

>>13782307
Yes

>>13782252
That's all?

>>13782231
just buy beer for energy. You can go a month without food

>>13782244
But then the hoarders will just come back and buy more "just to be safe"

>>13782231
Welcome to late stage capitalism it's literally the same as Venezuelan communism.

Get a load of this retard

I feel like now is the perfect time to go to Wal-Mart and steal electronics because their loss-prevention is probably too busy keeping an eye on people trying to pocket large amounts of goods in the grocery isles and attempting to walk out with carts full of food.

>>13782631
He's not wrong, the American economy is held together by gum and tape at this point

>>13782231
It's ok anon i have plenty of food. You can come over to my place :)

>>13782318
>dotard

At times like this I'm glad my grandma is a hoarder because when have rice, beans and canned fish to stretch out for a while. I'm probably going to buy some seeds and gardening equipment tomorrow just in case though.

>>13782667
Better than being a retard.

Buy silver and ammo

>>13782668
This will all blow over before you can grow plants to eat.

>>13782761
This. I'd honestly be surprised if Corona-chan is still spreading by April. She's already run out of new continents to visit.

>>13782301
shortage of delivery drivers already before the hit, most drivers are going to be calling in sick anyways

I took the days off cause it was too much work

if everyone just shopped like they normally do there would be no shortages. it really disappoints me how selfish everyone is.

>>13782814
>b-b-but what if i-i n-n-need i-iit?!11

>>13782821
bunch of self important inconsiderate assholes out there

>>13782814
>>13782822
its chicken and egg

shoppers are in a game theory mode, they can be all oprah and PC and think about acting rationally or they can think everyone else is going to be acting selfishly and need to prepare for that

some people are worried that others are going to hoard so they have to hoard themselves otherwise they will find themselves paying 50 dollars just to wipe their own ass cause they believed in the good of people

>>13782814
`Basically this. These morons are going to crash our economy for this stupid toilet paper nonsense.

>>13782231
For some reason everyone is panicking today. My advice would be to stop being a little bitch and have enough food at home to survive more than a few days at most.

>>13782836
>having to pay 50 dollars to wipe your own ass
Or you could just use a regular towel, or a page out of a book, or a paper towel, or clothing, or anything else that can be washed in a washer or by hand.
If there’s running water you can always just wash your ass too. Idk why everyone is so fucking retarded they don’t realize how many ways there are to clean your own shitty asshole.

its literally only toilet paper that is low, and thats mainly because toilet paper takes up a ton of shelf space and buying small amounts empties a lot of space, and because everyone keeps talking about it being scare which just makes more people stock up

>>13782958
in some places they are out of frozen food, canned foods, soap, cleaning supplies, pasta and rice

if your area is only out of toilet paper, it means the rest will follow, it literally only takes one person emptying out all your cans of tuna for the dominos to roll in your area

>>13782949
Yeah it was fine at the stores the other day, but today suddenly shit hit the fan. Was it the travel ban going into effect that triggered people?

>>13782964
>tfw crazy cat ladies are going to cause the downfall of society

>>13782231
It's all elderly boomers who are scared shitless of leaving the house so they buy enough supplies to last months.
Things will go back to normal in a week.

>>13782811
You literally have an hour cap as a driver you pussy. I was a merchandiser for Pepsi for years and you cocks are babies

>>13782981
I think it was the WHO calling it a pandemic and then all those universities and shit closing.

>>13783008
My dad is insisting on going to Walmart this weekend. Can't talk him out of it. Like for fuck all's sake you can wait until Tuesday, but NOPE.

>>13783008
tell that to italy lmao

>>13782231
I'm a manager at a walmart. I'm so fucking tired of this toilet paper shit.

>>13782981
Yeah. Trump had a slip of the tongue and said that cargo bans would be prohibited as well, which wasn't the case.

>>13783021
Stomp stomp clap.

Right now, not that many sick shoppers and full staff.

My sibling visited a Publix tonight that will be reducing their hours 2 hours shorter at night so limited staff can stock. Who knows if that trend will keep up, but I'd be pissed if I had to shop in reduced hours.

>>13783027
*cargo planes

>>13783021
Is hand sanitizer also an issue? That one I really don't understand, it's baffling to see an empty section with antibacterial hand soap well-stocked right next to it.

>>13783015
Boomers are fucking retarded.

>go to supermarket
>food fully stocked
>only one pack of toilet paper left

>>13783018
Italy dug their own grave. But at least they proved to the world they're not racist. That's all that matters here.

>>13783030
Just got back from Wally World in Missouri about an hour ago. It was a complete zoo. No shitter paper, but there was plenty of food, cleaning supplies and the OTC section was fine. I chatted with the 110 year old cashier and she said the past few days were worse than Black Friday and Christmas by far.

>>13783037
buy food now

>>13783037
When you were prepping food, i studied the toilet paper fort
Now, with the looters at the gates, you have the audacity to come to me to shit?

>>13783041
buy food now

>>13783037
Yeah, my store had like 3,000 apples just sitting there and no one wanted any. But every cart had 2-3 toilet papers in it, not even memeing.

>>13783046
People that are panic buying want canned goods and dry goods, things what will last for ages.

>>13783046
Yeah I picked up ibuprofen and NyQuil just in case and it was untouched

>>13783045
I did. I got a pile of Little Debbies. These “Banana Twins” are tucking great.

sold it all to 'zuela for 12000

The worst part about this isn't the quarantine.
It's the "Corona? I prefer Coor's Lite" jokes I'm seeing.
They stopped being original in like half a day who's still laughing at them?
Someone give me an ETA on when this meme virus is over so I know when they'll stop.

>>13782777
>thinking that corona is going to die out because there are no new continents to visit.
