This time its because the trucks can't get through because of the devastation caused by Hurricane Ida. I went to the local grocery store (Rouses) and they had no bananas, apples, salads, jugs of sweet tea, bottled water, no cheese, frozen pizzas and other frozen goods. I'm sure my Chewy order will be late since half of the stuff I order comes from a Texas warehouse. I'll have to scour the other stores in search of cat food, luckily I was able to get cat litter at Big Lots.

Ida certainly was a rude and disruptive guest. The videos of Louisiana, as well as the northeast and the Atlantic coast, are astonishing. We don't see pictures of the wide swath of her destruction that cut off commercial ground routes.
I hope your shelves are restocked soon.

Sorry about your supply disruptions, wickedkittiesmom. Hope you had at least some non-perishables stocked up ahead of time.

They were also out of sugar. I don't worry about WKD and I , we could both lose some weight but I always worry about having enough cat food for my wicked kitties.

Sorry to hear this WKM. I'm still having trouble ordering canned cat food off of Amazon. Find some in the stores, but not always what THEY want.  |

Just more evidence of massive systems breakdown that corporate America has made absolutely no attempt to predict or act upon, even though the facts have been in front of them for quite some time. Expect a lot more of this in the days to come, and get used to Soviet-style shortages and unobtainable necessities in our 'land of plenty'.

Sorry to hear this WKM. I'm still having trouble ordering canned cat food off of Amazon. Find some in the stores, but not always what THEY want. I order 95% of my cat food from Chewy.com., if you spend over $49.00 (which I always do) its free shipping and if you do autoship, you often get a better price. I have autoship every 4 weeks but sometimes I run low and sometimes I buy a few cans of something different to break up the monotony of their diet. Chewy is has better prices than most grocery stores.

My chewy order ran a day late… A couple of years ago, with the flooding in PA (where my orders usually ship from), my orders were over a week late. On the plus side, Chewy was very helpful and in fact gave me a full refund on two of the late orders. Even when there are delays, I like dealing with them as they're always good with customer service issues.

That is serious, I've always been well stocked with toilet paper, its a hang up of mine. We are alike: I never run out of toilet paper. I always have an abundance. lol diapers, too. There are just a few things I cannot run short. I just noticed the shelves.

My Mother used to say that serious stocking up on toilet paper is the first sign that you're becoming a Little-Old-Lady. I didn't pay much attention to it, then. NOW, I know what she meant.  |

I'm old but probably would not be considered a lady. My toilet paper "fetish" started when I worked on the primitive Greek island (Agistri) decades ago, the only things I truly missed were soft toilet paper and Big Macs. I could deal with only cold water to wash, running water only at certain times of the day, not being able to flush tp down the toilet which also had to be flushed with a bucket of water and limited electricity. Now the island of Agistri has become a popular tourist destinations, especially among Europeans. Our tp of choice is Charmin with aloe.

One empty shelf space I'm starting to get a little nervous over is the Wolfgang Puck's Garden Vegetable soup, which has been a staple in my cupboard for many years now. Lately (last month or so) it has simply stopped appearing on the shelves at those local stores near me that carry the WP line of soups. Not sure if it's a discontinued item or what. Come to think of it, I've noticed some of the other WP soup flavors have disappeared as well.
