Shelves at Costco, Target, Walmart, etc. lately?
#89
Dropped off garbage and got water today.
Numbers were light with quick and easy access, easy to avoid getting close to others.

Then went shopping.
Did not go into town, just Pahoa and Kea'au.
Farmers market was nice, uncrowded, good availability, no limiting.
Got a lot, and spent about $50.

Hit a couple of stores in Pahoa.
Still some shortages, but things are beginning to become available again, found everything on the list and more.
I even found some wipes to keep in the cars.
We do have plenty, but still can't find bottles of alcohol available.
I'm led to believe it is a manufacturer's problem.
Didn't see any limiting on purchases.
Definitely more expensive than going to town.

M'Lady wants some Tylenol for around the house.
All acetaminophen products are still missing, only naproxen and aspirin items on the shelves.
Not a problem for me.
I very rarely use pain relievers, or antipyretics.
If I do, aspirin takes care of me.
We have plenty for now.

Was a bit reluctant at first to use my mask, but became quite at ease using it everywhere.
Numbers of other users are up everywhere.
Some surprised by my mask, many a bit envious, a few questions.

I saw many failings in the use of the "surgical" and N95 type masks by others.
People do need to learn how to use them effectively.
Just hanging it your face doesn't really cut it.
But, it's early.
Knowledge should get better with time.

Prices as expected were high.
I'm convinced supplies are loosening up.
Think I'll go into town for the next trip, probably a week or so, check things out there.

Was a Democrat until gun control became a knee jerk, then a Republican until the crazies took over, back to being a nonpartisan again.
This time, I can no longer participate in the primary.
