It feels imminent that something along the lines of martial law is about to be mandated here in the U.S. I think that is at the basis of the panic buying. Or at least it is a major factor. People fear they will be told they can’t go out, and the entire nation will be quarantined. And without a good supply of food at home, they will go hungry.
The other major factor is hoarding. But it’s interesting. All it takes is a few people buying a two year supply of TP to launch a stampede. Why? Because if you see someone snatching up toilet paper, you realize you have no choice. You have to stock up because people are out there hoarding!
I got a lot of steps today because I went out shopping again! There were a few ingredients we needed for the meals we have planned for the next two weeks, and we really wanted our freezer well stocked. I think we will be glad we did.
Thanks for visiting my blog!

Hoarding of oods will certainly be unavoidable since there would be scarcity of goods.
