I am in Tucson.. If you can pick up a few cases I would be more than happy to drive up there and pay you for them and your time..

And no.. I am not hoarding or selling any of these I am merely handing them out to the elderly people who cannot get to the stores and desperately need something

Cal him. I left with a bunch of equipment. No room in my truck. Plus I’m 3hrs away

As i understand it, are we just not flattening the curve, 50% of us on here are going to get it eventually, just latter than sooner.

My wife has a sinus infection and couldn’t sleep last night. She went to Walmart early and was pulling in the garage as I was walking out to leave. She was able to get what we needed. I normally pay on Friday, but paid Brady today so he could go himself, if he needs anything. It wouldn’t surprise me if one, or both, of us are quarantined.

Oh boy, The federal reserve just eliminated the mandatory 10% reserve all banks need to have to pay out to depositors. Effective March 26.

That doesn't seem to be this:

" suspending all rent, mortgage, and utility payments "


and I don't know how it is there but here , from what my wife tells me, it is sort of moot because the courthouse is basically shut down.
Do.mean exaggerated a little

We are in unprecedented territory and it’s possible it may shut down but I don’t see how it could for more than a day or two

the trading floors are pretty empty from what I understand and the trades are electronic

there are billions if not trillions of dollars in weekly options and future contracts that are zero sum and need to be settled by or at expiration which is typically every Friday at the close

besides .... computer viruses are rarely fatal or contagious

I've been to a half dozen stores several times since Friday
Best times are early morning after they've stocked over night.

also the least mow-rons out too

had no real problems here finding most all the foods stuffs ..bread, milk, butter, eggs, produce, rice, noodles, meats and cheese, etc...IF you get there early in the morning.
can be a different world if you get there late in the day


TP is the problem
it's like gold .
I missed the last 12 pack this morning by mere minutes .
I'm good for maybe 2 weeks before critical , but sure would like a little more cushion .
(than Bounty paper towels provide)

I discovered this morning I was low on Dog food. Went to the store tonight and there was only about 5 bags of dog food on the Shelf. I was glad I got one. My dog would have been very upset if I didn't get a bag.

I talked to the Meat cutter and asked if there was any ground beef in stock. He said no and the delivery they were supposed to get today never showed up. I'll be glad when this is over and we all can get back to fighting about Pre Spray and what an asshole Bristor is.

The City sorta shut us down. The "shelter In Place" policy shuts us down for 3 weeks.
I Had to call all my clients who have appointments within the next 3 weeks that we are closed.

Only one said it was essential that we take care of her ASAP. They have allergies and asthma and needed their carpets cleaned.

After I set up, I get a call from my sister, who is a nurse, That she may have been exposed to the virus- "Fuk- was it before or after i saw her" thought goes through my head.-- might need my 84 yr old dad to stay with me for a while.

I felt like douche working today and not doing my part to keep people safe.
