I’m of the thought that if we see Immune Escape  (variants) among the Jabbed leading to more restrictions, lockdowns and the slowing of supply lines, we may not have full shelves this Winter.  It may be a conspiracy theory but part of me thinks the pandemic was to kill our economy, create dependency on Government and develop an ID Card via the Vaccine Passport that would control all aspects of our lives.   Punishment and rewards.  We are seeing that now with the Green Passes acting as a so called freedom pass.  The rest of us are punished by not having one.

Having a discussion with my better half.  Family background of farmers until the last generation where we produced most of our food and put it up for the Winter months.  Her side were city dwellers for generations and bought from stores as required.  Just on time shopping.

I have always leaned toward stocking up on non-perishables  (3 month supply).

 

What are forumites thoughts on this Winter in particular?  Supply line shortages leading to empty shelves.
