"there was a run on them" You just made me spit tea all over the place!
LOL
I didn't know quite how to put it (seems I chose a good one).
My DD gets an enema 3 times a week and we saw no reason to bring 2 weeks worth of them with us. After all, at home, we have no trouble picking them up from Target,
Walmart or any Pharmacy.
It was the weirdest thing....
My husband went to Target to pick up some food supplies. No enemas! The Pharmacy staff had no idea when they ran out or when they would get more.
So, no problem. DH was going to Walmart anyway. We figured they would have some. Same story. No enemas.
Walmart suggested a nearby Pharmacy. DH went there. Same story - empty shelf where the enemas should be.
At that point, DH drove back to our resort and we called a Pharmacy and asked them to hold some enemas for us. (Who would have thought you needed to hold enemas!)
We never figured out what happened - was there a sudden outbreak of constipation? Or people felt a sudden need for internal cleaning? Some kind of weird flushing ritual?
But, now for us, it's "enemas, don't leave home without them!"
(We wrap them in a zip lock freezer bag, then use our bag sealer to add another heavy layer of plastic, sealed really well.).
