Cream Cheese
 
Can someone explain why I can't buy cream cheese at Publix? Am I the only one who suspects that this is a scam?

I found a tub at the Lake Deaton store, but with inflation, I had to put it on lay-away. If you sneak into the back freezer area, you probably can nick my tub -- I have until this weekend to find the funds to get it out.

If it is missing on Sunday afternoon, I'll know it is one of you who got it, and I'll schmeer your name for taking it.

This is happening all over TV. When I first heard of this did stock up as Aldi had plenty.

Do not need it now but in recent weeks Walmart and Aldi have none.

They blame a cyber attack from last year. It seems our industries are fair game to foreign hackers who spread ransomware.

Make a deal trade half of it for a few bagels

This has been a country-wide problem since before Christmas. Daughter in Virginia can't get it either. New York didn't have enough for their deli bagels. Bad news is that there really isn't any good substitute for cream cheese.

I'm super excited you stocked up.. (me me me ) what are we supposed to do?

And do we still hoard toilet paper? my wife said we should just throw it out now that we made everyone else use a leaf.

I looked for some in Aldi (441) yesterday - empty shelf :-(

At Costco last week, they had tons of 16oz, and bricks. Sorry I could have filled my yeti to the brim, and sold out the back of my car:a040:
