yup, loaded up on milk, bread and eggs last night!!!!!

 

[Snapdragon]

Me too. Got bread, milk, and eggs (all of which we needed anyway), but Oh, the humanity! I forgot the half and half for coffee! I'll have to use milk!

 

[Ademus]

I always try to stay stocked up regardless in case of emergency.

WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!

It's going to snow and get cold...has this ever happened in January before?

 

[Snapdragon]

And we're going to starve without bread.

And we're going to starve without bread.

Stopped at Krogers to pick up oj and couldn't believe the throngs of people getting bread and milk. What's the deal with bread and milk?

 

[Trigger Time]

People are so stupid and unprepared for normal weather let alone a little cold and snow.

 

[Snapdragon]

And what good is milk without cereal? There should be a run on Cheerios too.

 

[The Keymaster]

I am ALWAYS prepared. That being said, I am sure the retailers provide kickbacks to the NWS, and the media for sensationalizing the weather. Go out and buy, buy, and buy more, so you will have enough if 6-8 inches of snow closes all the roads.

ive had my mom tell me for 2 days how unprepared I am because I wont rush out and buy bread and milk. my response remains the same. I have enough food saved up for 3-4 weeks if we are smart about it. its not a lot but we are still newbies to prepping. to me the ones running out to get carts full of food are the one that are not prepared.

 

[Snapdragon]

Yeah, bread and milk are perishable. If you are stocked up on non-perishables, you're actually in better shape than the ones who just make a run for bread and milk.

Bread in the freezer and rotated out as needed. It keeps very well that way.

 

[churchmouse]

Perfect.

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

Uh-oh! We're in the 3-5 loaves area and we only have 2 in the house!!! If you guys don't hear anything from me after Sunday, please SEND HELP!

Bread, Milk and Eggs - French Toast.
Bread and Milk = Milque Toast.

We rarely use bread or milk in our house, it usually goes bad before we eat/drink it all...I find I'm less prepared to feed my dogs if I got snowed in.

We went to Walmart last night to pick up a few things we needed. Two of the items we purchased were bread and milk. But it was only because we actually needed them for sammiches. 6 loaves should hold out until Monday right? 5 gallons of milk seemed reasonable. I already had 13lds of bacon on hand so I'm set until at least tomorrow. Probably should get some more tonight after work.

Looking around it would seem that was the way people were thinking. We must have looked weird with only 1 loaf of bread and 1 gallon of milk. One thing I did notice, we were the only ones who had T.P. in our cart. Do the people who panic buy assume that their bowels will stop moving in the event of a snow storm?

We rarely buy bread but we do go through a lot of milk. I need to pick up a gallon today plus a few other things I needed anyway. I also need to find some calcium chloride since I am down to 10-12 pounds.
