    Default supply shortages

    so far for me - just today today:

    dark bread - ( thick German rye) but i grabbed the last of the pumpernickel
    soda machine: cartridges are "unavailable" at Wawa.
    sodas at Publix: i grabbed the last of Coke Zero on the shelf

    Depending on the product I am now doing my best to lay in at least a six month supply, a year is better. Between the inflation and the lack of availability, which compound each other, this is the smart play.

    Going the other way my wife found sponges of the size I like at Kroger for the first time in over a year, she also shops Walmart and Safeway...they have not been there either. She also found Kellogg's bran buds that had been out for months.

    I make up my own mind, and that does not conflict with my post.

    Are you having an off day today?
