PSA for those in the Mid-Atlantic: Stay FAR away from supermarkets tonight!
:scared:

stopped in just to get a corkscrew opener and holy hell, it was PACKED! Who knew you could make a Friday night look as packed as a Sunday Afternoon and the day before Christmas combined into one.

:scared:

2. Yeah. The grocery store was packed, but I didn't go in. I got myself a case of beer
at the package store, though!

Gotta be prepared!

Take care of yourself, charlie!

:hi:

3. heh, got a bottle of wine for the weekend
it was only after I got home from the liquor store did I realize I didn't have a corkscrew opener, so I had to run to the supermarket.

NOW I'm all set to be snowed-in for 48 hours

:toast:

5. The snow panic is always amazing!
I went just to see how frantic people are! OK, I really went to get lottery tickets, but it's always fun to see people doing the french toast run. What else do you make with the bread, milk and eggs that people hoard before a storm?

6. LOL
I never understood how people SUDDENLY can NOT be without milk, bread, and eggs for a entire day, lol. I suppose any snow storm could unexpectedly dump 6 feet of snow, but you'd think the roads would still be clear in a day or two? :shrug:

8. And why do they stock up on toilet paper and bottled water?
NO idea.
