at local grocery store last night-man bought all the powdered milk, dry beans, ramen

and powder pancake mix.

The clerk asked if he ran a kitchen or something, he said he had a large family.

He seemed a little "off"

when we got parked in our complex=there was the man in the back of his van sorting out piles.

He is going to hoard it and sell it for higher cost.

Sorry, but even if you have 7 in the household, that amount of TP I've seen flying off shelves would last two years.

To whom?

I can’t imagine buying dried beans or pancake mix from some rando somewhere.

How bizarre.
