#5 I'm wondering if there will be a run on sugar so people can whip up some home-made hooch.

#6 I'm wondering if there will be a run on sugar so people can whip up some home-made hooch.

In the grocery last week, there was NO sugar. Thought to myself, "What? Is everybody moonshining?"

/disclaimer: I needed sugar to make ginger beer.
And to be fair, they could be baking a lot. The weed store is doing a land-office business.

#7 If they don’t open soon, there’ll be a lot of people taking the gas pipe.

#8 To SteveS: Our local Lidl had a boat-load of sugar. I almost bought some, but, rational thought kicked in when I realized I do not need any sugar, so I didn't. Of course, maybe I should have bought one as perhaps I could trade it for a pack of TP down the road.
