    Old timey way. 20 pounds flour, 20 pounds sugar, 10 pounds bacon, 20 pounds of chicken, etc. Some concierge to the car, some I walked into the store (I laugh in the face of microbes and fart in the general direction of viruses!) and bought.

    Still have some to pick up Friday.

    My MIL and I should be set for 60 days.

      You'd be hard pressed to find a sack of flour around here. Weird, because I haven't had a bit of problem getting great bread.

        Lad, ya gotta shake the bushes. And you may not find the brand you want, but I'll find something that works. I bought ten pounds of White Lilly, five pounds of Shawnee's Best and five pounds of Martha White.

        Hint...Don't overlook your dollar stores...Sometimes they have paper goods, some foodstuffs and cleaning products when the grocery store doesn't have them.

        Of course, you'll have to do your Hazmat routine...

          BTW, I went into a smaller, local grocery store for most of what I bought today. I've known their butcher for 45 years...P.J. told me that things were getting back to normal as far as his job went. I noticed I could buy just about what I wanted, with the exception of some really nice ribeyes or such, but that store doesn't tend to stock that type of product. Real blue-collar type of store.
