what has everyone STOCKED up on?

Dawn, guinea pig food, and a bit of dry goods. Forget meat there isn't any in my area. I wish Walmart and the rest would quit increasing food price's and medical supply's have gone up quite a bit. The only thing I really wanted is towel paper for my shop and upstairs in the kitchen. I scored a 6 pack at the 12 pack price. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR
 
We live in a relatively remote area. Not as remote as parts of alaska that can only be reached by plane, but about as far away from things as you can get in the lower 48. We usually go months at a time without going to resupply... so this is all very much life as usual for us. Normally we can go a year without re-supply if necessary. So while I have empathy for anyone going through hard things, this hasn't affected us much at all.

If UPS/fedex stop moving... quality of life will be reduced a bit, but we'll be fine. :)
 
I have a rancher friend over in New Mexico who is remote, not as bad as you but still remote. He goes to the 'big city' once every 3 months in his dually with a big chest freezer in the back. He e-mails the list ahead so he can get back to the ranch before midnight...

I go over a couple of times a year to visit and shoot prairie dogs so I load up the truck with treats they normally don't bother to buy. High on the list is a case of excellent bourbon. :D I get keys to ALL the gates!;):D
 
Didn't have to stock up on anything really, I just bought a little extra here and there previous to the Chinese virus outbreak. 2 deer in the freezer so I have meat, plenty of canned and dry goods on hand, a few bottles of whiskey, set on my reloading supplies for the year. As long as I can get my meds, milk and OJ I can get through this mess without too much hassle
 
I live in Silicon Valley on the side of a mountain just outside the city proper. It's earthquake country, so most people maintain a sane stock of essential supplies. Because of the aggressive CA anti-guns&ammo laws, I maintain a pretty fair stock of reloading components as well. Does that make me a closet prepper?
