(to get "Winter Storm French Toast" makings...hehehe...jk!)

to get some makings for cookies (just in case I'm snowed in tomorrow...I need to bake these for Saturday)...and I SWEAR the average age of shoppers there was 75.

I could NOT believe how crowded it was!

Thank the technological god for the 'self service check out' lanes!
 
It snows every winter, I don't know why people wait until the snow is on it's way to stock up. And it's not like a person will be snowed in for a month, or something. Streets are clear w/in hours of a snow storm ending, what's the big deal?
 
It's the old way of thinking with the old people. You're not going to get out and be snowed in. Also, it would take days in the "olden" days for stores to restock after a big snow storm.

I do remember back in the 90's we were snowed in for 2 or 3 days.
 
wonder what all these people would of done in the ice storm of '98.....we had nothing opened for a week and some people had nothing for a few weeks......we made do with what we had and what our neighbors had.....we shared food and milk and had a very very close time with all of the people in our area.....One night we had our daughter husband and two kids....their dog and our dog and my hubby and myself......his mother and my mother too.....and then our son and his wife from out of town came.....it was wonderful.....our neighbor came over with a cooked chicken and she stayed for a pot luck supper of other types of foods with the chicken.......we did buy a generator .....and it has not been used to keep us warm yet........we do start it up and get it to work each fall ....just in case....
I HATE SNOW TOO by the way.......have a safe weekend everyone
