Smiths was crazy, I could not get in the lot Monday. Today I hit Vons, they will have this Thursday and Tuesday, and it was no issue. My location is Durango south of the loop Enterprise area.

That store is reasonably convenient to Sun City Anthem and Sun City McDonald's Ranch. So you got 20,000 elderly who will hit it. Not as bad as the One at Rampart and Lake Mead which has a golf cart entrance but likely to clot up pretty bad. I would try ones not convenient to a senior development.

I have heard that there are fewer people at Smiths and Albertsons outside of the senior hours.

Also Solera at Anthem.

Sadly, nature most likely will take care of the too-many senior shoppers issue within the next 2 or 3 weeks.

was at sky point Smiths for senior wednesday morning shopping. Water and paper products were available but still on a ration system. Meats are pretty liberal, 2 beef, 2 chicken, 2 pork limits each, picked up a tri tip, ground beef and chicken cutlets no problem. Deli was normal and no limits. The rest of the store was pretty stocked. No lysol or disinfectant cleaners, but they did have a tub of disinfect wipes at the paper ration spot. They even handed out complementary cut flowers to all the seniors.

The crowd was 1/3 the first day with maybe only 100 online and they just let everyone in just before 7am. Plenty of checkout lines, organized, laid back, no hassles.

I hope after the crisis, they keep a senior hour once or twice a week, its really a pleasure to be catered too.
