Besides the obvious toilet paper, Clorox wipes shortage, what have you found hard to get?

1. Cherry Coke Zero
2. Diet Cherry 7UP
 
Somebody keeps buying all the cans of diced tomatoes. I presume they are making ginormous amounts of chili and spaghetti?

I can't find the Tyson air fry chicken lately. They probably stopped special products just like soda companies did for awhile. Through much of May and June, I couldn't find the cane sugar Pepsi. Culver's, my fave fast-food chain has been consistently out of the yummy fried pork tenderloin lately.
 
by the way, a friend in the bottling industry has mentioned they are having trouble getting aluminum cans because of the ban on recycling.........

I have seen reports that there is a massive aluminum can shortage because the manufacturers could not ramp up enough as people started staying home. Manufacturers are thus only making their most popular brands. I got the idea that this problem will not be getting better.
 
New freezers, go buy one from one of the many failed restaurants, but be sure to let it set in place for 24 hours after you move it before plugging in.

I thought that was only sold online.

There are/were certain stores that carry it (I think just in single 16oz aluminum cans), such as 7-11 and Wal-Mart. They were briefly available in a couple of 7-11s near me, but, are no longer sold in WA state.

I bought online six years ago when they were first affordable online. Earlier that year, they were rolled out with hilarious prices. Oh, yeah, and Burger King had (has?) a Surge slushy, but, the one near me never carried it.

You can actually go online and use a tracker to see if there's anything near you.

They had it in a few gas stations when we went out west in 2018 but just like my cane sugar Pepsi it's not their brand's bread and butter and took sidelines for awhile.
