What's the general supply situation in AZ at the moment? Are there other items that have become hard to get that are normally an easy find?

They could, and they should. But that would cost fuel and canal transit fees. And from the rumors I've been hearing about the backlog and the motivations of the large shipping companies...their upper management/owners are making a killing on container prices and ship slot priority. So they...

No, then they are vunerable to weather and accidents, like the container ship that is/was on fire and lost containers during the bomb cyclone a few days ago, of the coast of Vancouver in Puget Sound. It would probably take about a week to get ships from LA to the Florida/Gulf Coast ports, and...

New wrinkle in the supply chain. Frieghter on fire of the Victoria, B.C., and combustible cargo containers are now floating in the Juan de Fuca Straight...

Good to know. I had to use canned tuna to try and get an old cat to eat his meds, and only got stuff with water based preservatives. But would not have thought the oil based stuff was dangerous for cats; that's a good tidbit to have.

Dollar Tree to start offering items that cost more than a dollar. This is a really bad sign.

Both yes and no. Done it two years I a row, and I can say that potato's are more finicky than many think. They do not do well with too much heat or arid conditions, need loose soils so the potatoes can actually grow (clay rich soils are not good for potatoes), and have issues with giving you...

'Just in time' logistics and off-shoring to China has completely fucked the American business model and supply chain. The Gen X'ers, Centennials, Millennials, and Gen Y are going to be paying for Greatest Gen/Boomer short-sightedness and base greed for a long time to come. Home gardens and...
