We’re still having problems with pasta and various canned goods at my grocery store. But hey, I bet making fun of people who are noting supply chain disruptions and empty shelves made you feel good, right?

Some people are just too serious. Lighten up.

Nah, I won’t lighten up. It’s still an issue, even if supporters of Joe Biden like to belittle and make fun of those who are noting supply disruptions.

Yawn, another labeler. I know it may be hard for you to understand that not everyone is into your Red team/Blue team nonsense. Some of us can actually use critical thinking skills and not get into politics. Pointing out that a problem is regional at best (not national) is belittling no one. And calling out people that attempt to mislead by claiming stores are mostly empty with their disingenuous pictures of an empty shelf and projecting it to be national in scope does nothing to help anyone have an honest conversation on the topic.

Couldn't rep again. It is astounding how many work so hard to keep this division alive. It must be exhausting trying to maintain that level of hate for your fellow countrypeople every day.

My local grocery store looked pretty stocked, so I asked the guy how were supplies?

He said he usually gets 1100 pallets a week, but he is only getting around 400 a week still.

My last stop was Food Lion and the guy was there stocking some cat food. I grabbed a bit and the guy said every time he stocks, it runs out fast.

Even Chewy was low yet dog food is on the shelves. Weird.
It's been like this with canned cat food for quite a while now. Signs on shelves, "Sorry for the inconvenience." All the canned dog food anyone could want, including same manufacturer which makes cat food.

Fortunately, my cats will only eat dry food. Haven't seen shortages of that. Fingers crossed.

OP, is this just a bragging post? “My store is not under stocked like yours and everything is way cheaper too. Nanana boo-boo”

What is the point of this thread?

See post #126 and please stay focused on what was said versus how you'd like to characterize it. No claim was made that prices weren't going up in the original post (we have had civil exchanges regarding pricing that have been interjected throughout the thread).
