This is for in-Iowa news and discussion. ABSOLUTELY NO POLITICS.
Cornholio foretold thisI've been buying TP daily.
I made my beer run to Hy-Vee yesterday after work. Was informed the Governor's office was asking for a count of how many people can work from home by the end of the day, so figured on the off chance things were moving quickly I would stock up ahead of the crowd.Anybody been to Hy-Vee or Fareway today? Assume panic buying is picking up.
Bought a bottle of Buffalo Trace yesterday.I'm not sure if the ole "kill it with whiskey" approach will work but I'm gonna give it a try.

Yahtzee!!!Bought a bottle of Buffalo Trace yesterday.
Not today. I was at the Windsor Heights Hy Vee last night to grab a few things. They were totally sold out of hand sanitizer and running pretty low on TP (which, why?) and disinfectant wipes, but everything else was pretty much normal. I usually make my big grocery run on Friday but I might knock it out tonight just in case. Interesting times.
Costco in WDM was not unusually busy as of 6:00 last night. Tons of bottled water for sale and it appeared to be moving quickly. Most all paper products gone except for napkins and industrial/bathroom paper towels, I think. I overheard someone say more TP would arrive today and they expected it to sell out quickly. Soap and sanitizer sold out, someone else said rice had sold out. As best I can tell, inventory looked good otherwise.
I would guess it picks up today.
Bought my first bottle of the stuff over the weekend and I really like it.Bought a bottle of Buffalo Trace yesterday.

Anyway, no, it wasn't too busy yet from what I could tell.
Ummm I was out there on Saturday morning and it was out of control. I got there just after they opened and it was already packed. I would say it was busier than any time I was there over the holidays.

State employees. I know they were already discussing hypothetical plans last week, but sounds like the urgency has picked up.Curious as to whom they are requesting this from? State employees or business too?
Started my regimen last night
