Damn your really paranoid, you need a couple blunts and relax, work on that Tacoma with all your spare time you have.
Everyone who can do so securely, should always have cash on hand for emergencies. Even before this Ive always had $100 hidden in my wallet, $100 in the car, and $50 in each phone and tablet I own behind their cases. Don't tell anyone
Goes back to my days removing snow as a means of secondary income as an adult. We'd stop by peoples mansions and they were shut in with no cash. We'd tell them when they did get cash to call us back. We were WAY to busy and choking on cash work so we never went back to those houses until the end of the day when we ran out of work. Only reason we even would knock was because we were at their neighbors house and less time driving is more time making $$$. No need to take plastic then have some A-hole fight the charge after the work was done nor did we want anyone knowing we were bringing in thousands in un-taxed revenue a day. KISS in emergencies. Shit egts bad and cards are by by. Shit gets real bad and paper money is also useless and Ive got stuff to barter as well so I guess I'm really crazy for that
who the hell carries cash nowadays?
Credit card, copper and lead if I need to make any transactions.
Not me. That's not being carried on my person unless I'm changing quarantine locations for some horrible reason.

I ordered new watch band, screen protector and charging stand for my daughters watch last night. It said it would be delivered on Wednesday. Now it shows "out for delivery".??

Shiiiiiit.......Amazon has been "out of stock" in the stuff I stock normally for 3+ weeks. Similar minded people and all I guess? You already know that though
If anyone needs or wants long lasting bulk food like rice or beans and or 'gourmet' MRE's as of when I checked yesterday packitgormet (TX company) still had items in stock. One of my less prepared buddy's was looking for MRE's and said everyone was selling out of Mountain house online. Packit Gourmet Backpacking Meals and Groceries

I really need to make a new reloading bench.
Went by Academy yesterday and ammo was very limited. What surprised me though, and I guess it shouldn't have, was that the gun counter was almost empty. People were gobbling up the guns and leaving some of the ammo.
The reloading section was largely untouched. Plenty of projectiles in all the popular calibers. I didn't see powder though. I didn't even see a place for them to stock powder, which leaves the question: who sells projectiles but not powder or primers?

80-90% of gun sales were to first time gun owners. All these liberals and idiots are out buying guns because the police have publicly said they are not arresting people right now for theft or misdemeanors as well as not responding to calls that aren't an emergency.

Yea, not sure if price gouging or not.?. My last order was not that pricey but was a loooong time ago
You guys think I'm crazy for stocking up months ago.....
Little do you know how thick the foil really is.
This was an order from 5 years ago when I was in a ton of debt and living week to week. Things have changed drastically since then

I have a couple of grand that has lined my safe for a couple of years. My mistake was not hoarding more $1, $5 $17 and $20 bills! Nearly all of it is in benjamins.Everyone who can do so securely, should always have cash on hand for emergencies. Even before this Ive always had $100 hidden in my wallet, $100 in the car, and $50 in each phone and tablet I own behind their cases. Don't tell anyone

That's the price of not being able to live with the idea of canned items, beans and rice.

I only took out $800 for this and no bens.
$17 dollar bills? Is that a CA $20 they just take the extra $3 off the top immediately for local tax's?
