Stores where I am remind me of grocery stores in Mexico City: full-ish but the variety is heavily pared down from what I'm used to. And the shelves get filled with items that aren't typical for the region/time of year (eg. Easter hams and corned beef year-round)
Yes, this is definitely what I am seeing. They still have generally all the stuff you need, but then just random things are missing and yeah, lot of less choices.
I know I go into also a quick trip every day and they usually keep things pretty well stocked, but they I have just noticed a lot of things that when they DO run out of an item [say a type of m&ms for just random example] it takes LONG time of that spot being empty before they get a new one in. Not saying there is a rush on the m&ms for example, but eventually these items do run out and then it takes forever.
Yeah, stuff isn't restocking as quick, but that may also be that people have started buying prepper style again and it sells out fast. The shelves have all the necessities but less choices. But even the cereal shelves, with workers on strike, are still full, minus a few favorites. And I'm in a Blue City.
Interesting. In north Texas where I live shelves are full
