I am going to do a big restock this week because our cases are rising. I am going to try the Walmart grocery delivery instead of curbside pick up this time.
I think the real spike will occur two weeks after Thanksgiving and again two weeks after Christmas.
We just tried the Walmart grocery delivery and are quite pleased with it.I am going to do a big restock this week because our cases are rising. I am going to try the Walmart grocery delivery instead of curbside pick up this time.
I used Walmart delivery yesterday--it is great! Delivered on time, contactless, delivered up the stairs to my porch. I left the delivery person a nice tip, it was worth it to me not to have to get the bags from the parking area up to my house. One item was missing and I was easily able to get a refund online. I recommend it. There is a 14 day free trail which they extended to 30 days when I signed in. I plan to sign up for the year --$100 for a year of unlimited deliveries.
People are living their lives as if the pandemic does not exist.
When the coronavirus first erupted in Sioux Falls, S.D., in the spring, Mayor Paul TenHaken arrived at work each morning with a clear mission: Stop the outbreak at the pork plant.
That outbreak was extinguished months ago, and these days, when he heads into City Hall, the situation is far more nebulous. The virus has spread all over town. “You can swing a cat and hit someone who has got it,” said Mr. TenHaken.
Gone are the days when Americans could easily understand the virus by tracking rising case numbers back to discrete sources — the crowded factory, the troubled nursing home, the rowdy bar. Now, there are so many cases, in so many places, that ? ?? ? ?? ?: ? ? ?? ? ?? ?? ?? . “It’s just kind of everywhere,” said Crystal Watson.
I'll never go back after doing WalMart pickup, I realize I spend less money, get everything I want and spend a fraction of the time doing it. Pre Covid Walmart got well less then 5% of my grocery spend , now it's 100% and that won't change when CV is gone.
It makes me wonder what Walmart's plans are, once they have hooked everybody on free curbside pickup. Surely they will start charging (whether openly, as a subscription fee, or covertly, as in the prices are higher than in the store...which customers won't know, since they don't go into the store).

I tried grocery shopping Sunday morning and it was so crowded I turned around and left. Monday morning at 9:00 was almost deserted. I'm retired! What the heck was I thinking going to a store on its busiest day? The downside is that they're not fully restocked with produce that early on Monday.
We have now pretty much documented the best time to do our Costco run. Pretty much Monday through Thursday between 10:AM and 1:00PM. (Full disclosure, we've not really tried before 10AM since we don't get up too early.
Our Costco opens one hour early on weekdays, 9 am, for seniors. That is my preferred time, it’s super easy to get in, shop, pay and get out before the crowd.
