My mom has a grocery delivery company and they are still making deliveries like usual and we have everything we need now for a month so no panic buying here. I love my mom!!!
Just nature's way of showing us what life under Bernie would be like all the time.

Why do people try to assign what is happening now to the actions of one, or people not even involved. This is something pretty much no one in our lifetime has experienced. People are freaking out. They don't know what to do because there is no blue print for pandemic. Instead of point fingers or sarcastically assign a would be scenario, why don't we as human beings all just try to figure this thing out as best we can.
This can't be all of the picture: Close here, Pattaya has about 1 million - and no supermarkets are raided. It looks the same in Bangkok to me. I guess that 'culture' is an influencer in how people respond to 'an issue'.
We have 6 million people and growing cases of Corona virus which are helping fuel panic. People are afraid they will be quarantined and not able to leave so they're stock piling. Add to that schools are now closed for three weeks so people have kids home so they are buying for them too. All you see on the news are stories of the virus and the panic shopping so people are panicking.
Yeah last time I went there was plenty of everything. I'm curious if its like when there is a hurricane now

I think it largely depends on where you live, and if you have cases in your area, and major shut-downs. I know where my uncle lives, its business as usual because he's in a small town, but I live in a city with millions and a growing number of corona virus cases, so someone definitely hit the "everybody panic!" button!

You clearly haven't seen Venezuela. That's what Bernie wants for us. And Liam is right: we're falling in line.
You must be living at a quite insane place. Hereabouts it's all relaxed.
I live in a city with million and several corona virus cases, so people are losing their minds.
*with millions

Uh... "apocalypse?"
I don't think you know what that word means. Unless you were trying to be humorous or ironic or something.
I saw that too a lot of stuff were empty from the shelves in stores. But I eventually got everything I needed so I'm all set
yesterday i had to wait an hour in line, the line went around the whole store
Wow. I mean people are just freaking out and nonstop media coverage of the panic stricken isn't helping .
yes all the fake information on it, then i watch doctor mike's coronavirus update and i just "oh" full of disappointment smh
maybe people will appreciate truck drivers and retail workers a little more
Management appreciates us a little bit more, because of refusal to give up. But at the same time, notices that the extra loads are not healthy for us.
I saw one guy unloading a pallet today. His eyes were cold and lifeless.
That doesn't surprise me one bit.
I was able to pick up 3 ham and pineapple pizzas today. The only frozen pizza available in the store. Thankfully I'm a fan.
Pineapple on a pizza! What are you - a philistine?
I'm just a madman. 😁
Oh, yeah, feel free to hoard that. We're cool, lol.
😄 bunch of haters on here. Lmao
No, just traditionalists who believe that they only fruit on a pizza should be tomatoes

I live in a town with about 5000 people so I haven't really been effected.
I say some people are buying things that dont make sense from batteries to meats that only have a short shelf life even when frozen
Yup I feel honestly like they ard trying to crowd control and not bring us into a panic state which makes things 100x worse. For me it is what it is.
It's gonna be a fucked up world , & more to come just yet
Welcome to another episode of how the media controls people. And god damn are they doing a good job at it. Just sad
How the media controls people? Please explain. The media's job is to report.
@coffeewithcream Then the media doesn't report things well.
OMG it's been crazy here's In Ohio almost every store is empty
This is a life or death problem not shopping for gifts
I've been wearing gloves everytime I've gone out shopping lately during this pandemic.
Where are you located?
