Here in Butte MT. The super Walmart has had " Last chance" signs on many
items all winter. I worked for Walmart years ago and never saw these
before. I asked the employees what it meant. They all said they had no idea
what they were. They had never been told about last chance stuff. But the
spots where these items were have not been replenished. In fact this past
month the shelving has been spread out and the refrigerated/frozen items
are spread out thinly to keep it from looking too bare. My husband is an
over the road truck driver and tells me he's seen the same issue all over.
Especially in the west. He is also seeing the military equipment movement
ALOT. Anyway, I had told him months ago that I thought the stores were
going to close . So glad the aware are stocking up.
P.S. The Albertsons grocery chain was abrubtly bought out by the Stokes and
switched over night. They bought out the Safeway too apparently and maybe
true value hardware. All quite suddenly.
