major winter storm. Power outages, accumulation, slick roads, etc. "Better stock up now" was what the news was saying. Once it all played out, only freezing rain and power out for a couple of hours. With that being said, I have 20 loaves of bread, 10 gallons of milk, 80 gallons of gas for the generator, 100 gallons of propane, 25 cans of Chunky Soup, 10 packs of hot dogs and buns, 6 larges bags of charcoal, 120 gallons of water I'd like to sell. Anyone interested?

Save them. You’ll probably need it. The grocery stores seem to be more and more empty every time I go in.

I’d say keep it as well though not for the scarcity, but for inflation. Buy a can of soup today for 1.50 then sell it in a week for 10, a significant savings to the now 14.00 shelf price. Thanks voters, you nailed it.

And I am over 100 miles west of you in the center of the storm's path and had no ice or power outages. Just a lot of rain, wind and a couple of hours of flakes that melted on contact. But I only bought one loaf of bread and a gallon of milk.

Hang on to all of it... Better yet, you should get premium $$$ as the "real" big one is supposed to hit Thursday and Friday.
Also, don't forget, you're competing against earthquakes too. Market should be at a premium.

Trust me, having been a former Air Force weather forecaster, I can tell you weather forecasting is an inexact science. We do the best we can...honestly.

So you are why we couldn't find milk. Plenty of homeless people and shelters would appreciate the gifts.

That 4-day power outage turned into 8 hours--even so, I was ill-prepared compared to you, MfO. But seriously, have a good day!
