I had mostly the same experience. I figured at 2pm I'd just pop into the 
grocery for milk and bananas as we were out. It was real busy but interestingly 
I thought people were pretty upbeat and kind to each other. Ground meat was 
totally gone, most of the chicken was too. Lots of beef. Pork tenderloin and 
corned beef are still on sale. We've already got 3 pork and one corned beef so 
I declined to pick up another. Probably should have gotten a corned beef, I 
like corned beef. ;)
Some people buying TP but not crowds like I saw at the pharmacy yesterday.
Gas station was very busy but I think thats probably normal for a Friday 
afternoon. People were rude/dumb which I think is also probably normal...

 Went to Costco on the way home from work today, as there were a number of 
things we needed.

OMG.

You would have thought a CAT 5 hurricane was off the coast. It was absolute 
insanity. I was able to get the stuff I needed and cut through the pharmacy to 
get to a line that only had about three people in it. The other lines snaked 
back halfway across the store.

I needed gas, too, but the lines for that were just as stupid. I have a 1/4 
tank, so I’m good. I’ll go by there first thing in the morning tomorrow when I 
go to the dry cleaners to pick up laundry. No one will be up then.
