Stop in for a cup of coffee
You guys must be trailing us. Like Susquehana valley is trailing us on pet food shortages. Remember OMR couldn't find any here a couple of months ago. Back to the old days when pets got table scraps. Worked pretty well like that for a few thous years.
Well I think you’re right.
rural areas are generally the first to feel a shortage and a price increase on goods, but on that same token, we’re normally slower to see fuel and utilities increases.
HOWEVER, the last couple of years, it’s been the opposite on fuel. We’re amongst the first to go up, we still have some days where not a single station has gas except for maybe premium. Propane has been in limited supply since 2020. I’m down to my last two tanks, luckily I had several(6) from the camper, all filled in feb 2020 for a big camping trip that didn’t happen due to Covid.
food shelves are still rather bare and in most cases way worse than 2020.
my theory is simply this, the population centers are getting the resupply faster and more consistent than us rural folks.
which is not surprising nor political. It’s simply because you’re gonna want your limited resources to go where it’s gonna get to the most number of people.
that, and us country folks can survive. We have and we will.
