Meet TP... One of the Covid19 hatches. They don't care about lockdown and neither do I now that they occupy my time.

I am so tired from staying up all night just to make a Walmart pick up order... Whoever stated that they post times at midnight, was completely correct! Thanks for that advice whoever you are... Sorry I forgot, but you really helped my family out

In other news husband's company is not letting them work long hours so he's leaving early today. That means lots of fun at our house tonight with games, puzzles, and laughter. Hope everyone is getting as much quality family time as they can... There's no better time.

With walmart pick ups, do they actually have your stuff ready for you or do they pull the 'out of stock' with that, too?

I've heard many people sit out and wait for the trucks to come, then bolt in the store and buy it immediately. Nothing is ever left at my Walmart. Ever.

In other news, almost 460 for the count yesterday.

I just wouldn’t have a place to keep all of them and my DH would kill me if I kept building more and more coops.

If I am murdered, tell the cops I kept building more coops.

I have been staying home but I still worry that someone may bring the virus to me with the sale of my eggs. I do have to handle money and I have no idea who has handled it. I do keep disinfecting wipes next to the change jar. I have to keep eggs out to sell. I can't stockpile them.

What a great set-up! Is this indoors?

Don't feed the troll.

Where is the troll? I have anti troll spray and I swear I am not afraid to use it.

If you click "no substitutions" and they don't have it, you just won't get it. If you allow substitutions, you'll get something similar. Like, I ordered 0% milk and got whole milk instead. Or you may get a different brand than you requested. But if they don't have it you won't be charged, either. You'll see it at checkout. I expected my bill to be about $200 once and it was $80 or so. I had to go back and click okay to substitute.

There will be some that's out of stock, but if it was in stock when you order then they'll usually substitute it with something better. I've rarely left without getting something I wanted.

They stock the shelves every night at 830 when the stores close its best to get there when they open.

There are certain things that I don't like to substitute like my vegan stuff that I don't want to get something with dairy in it so I make sure those are never substituted, but with meat, cheese, snacks, and anything else usually I substitute it and we always get something better.

One time I got the small package of sliced cheese and they gave me one that was so big I swear it lasted a month and that was us feeding some to the dogs It was ridiculous

One time I got a smaller mouthwash and they gave me a huge one and I just finished it and it lasted 3 months they always give you something bigger and better

Oh wow that sounds amazing!! I may have to order something out of stock just to get something better.
