Dagny, they do that here as well in new england...I do not understand it. Milk, eggs, TP, and, of all things water...which, in a blizzard, I find rather amusing that people stock up on water.

In Colorado it seems it's ammunition. At least this winter those were the shelves that got emptied most often.

I used to live about half an hour's drive from where I work. So I moved to within 3 miles. I can walk home if I need to. I live in a village so I can get to a small supermarket if I need to, and I keep supplies on hand so I probably won't need to. When picking a new home, I pay attention to access routes and try to ensure I have multiple ways to get in or out.
