Remember the good ole days when you would wake up and there would be 20 pages of unread posts on this thread? This morning there was 1 post. :( I think this thread is dying and the question Are you done stocking up has been answered.
Since we're now less than a month from the PMTA deadline, people should be done stocking up. ;)

Paper Towels: There is no shortage of C-Fold towels; the type you'd find in the dispenser in an office bathroom. They're not as nice as Bounty or Brawny, but are certainly usable for many purposes. My wife has plenty of Brawny in stock but gives me stink-eye every time I "waste" some, so I order a case of C-Folds as an alternate.

Still waiting on the hellvape destiny rta from 3f. It should show and ship next week. Sourcemore has it preorder for under $20 using code DEST.

I did get a response from totalindustrialsupply this morning, they are out of stock.
Did you get your Destiny yet? I only have a shipping # so far, zero movement foe 4 days.

I finally got the first of 2 FastTech shipments yesterday that I ordered on March 1st. I don’t build (yet) but ordered some Doggystyle tanks and building supplies for my stash. Hopefully I’ll get the second shipment soon.
I’m in a smaller town too and TP is still flying off the shelves here as well as paper towels and Kleenex. Food is pretty much back to normal tho, it got a little dicey for awhile there where meat, canned goods, bread etc were gone.

Not back to normal in Phoenix but getting better. Meat is goingbto be a problem with quite a few meat packing plants closing due to workers getting sick with the virus.

Last tracking is delivered to air transport on 4/4, so I expect it to clear customs and flip to usps any day now.

Sourcemore has it on sale for under 20, thinking about getting another and was hoping for someone's impressions that wasn't a reviewer. Think I'll probably get it, know it's a deck and af I'll like. Bottom af always makes me leery though.

What's the code? I'm seeing it at $29. Found it - DEST [emoji106]

About to go down the rabbit hole? I'm sooo tempted lol

I was lucky... I ordered the Sigeli Vcigo 150w for like $11.... it was so cheap I ordered two. Been using it as my main device for about 2 weeks now to test it out, and so far, it seems like it was worth it.... not the best of quality, not the best looking, old display, all plastic, light in weight as all get-out... but for $11, it was a great deal.
So, back in Jan/Feb, I ordered a backup mod, 1 liter of max PG 100mg/ml nic base, about 750ml of flavorings, a gallon of VG (still had one gallon left)...

Took stock of what I had: 8 LG HB2's (LG browns), a mix of other batteries (about 8 more) about 500 organic cotton pads, about 10 rolls of wire (at least half of them are un-used) Efest LUC charger still working (only vape gear I have just one of). Many many RTAs and a few drippers.

...and my working mods: 3 mech clones (Caravella, Orion, Nemesis), 1: 3 battery mod (releaux RX-200); 2: 2-battery mods: Sigeli K3 Vcigo, and Smoant Cylon (just re-glued the leather right before this post), Cloupor Mini TC+ 50w, Eleaf Aster TC, Smok Guardian 3 Epipe.

I'd say I am set for a while.

I suppose I’m still stocking. I looked at my inventory and noticed I didn’t have coils for one of my pods. Ordered from eightvape today. I finally remembered to use my virtual account number for my credit card so maybe they can’t hack it any more. Unless they hack my hack. o_O It’s a nice feature. I think I have a contest win tank that I haven’t used yet that also needs coils. I’ll look at that tomorrow.

I also found toilet paper and paper towels for us and my parents on amazon a few days ago. I’ve learned you gotta look often and be ready to act fast. It’ll be gone in a blink of an eye. I’ve been lucky around 7 am.

Hope all you stockers are doing well and staying safe!

Where is @BigPappa ? I still don’t see him around.

Well, fortunately for me, I am a baker at a grocery store.... I know when the trucks come in. If I had to give advice on how to get TP/Paper towels, etc..... I would say go in as early as you can. I know our store will reserve a good deal of the TP/paper towels for the morning... the first hour we're open is supposed to be for seniors only. But after that, there's usually plenty, and it goes fast... like within 1-2 hours, we're out again.

As far as the credit card.... When I order online from China, I usually use a Visa gift card. I register it on the card site, register it with Paypal, spend it, then throw away the card and remove it off of paypal when finished. I do not have Paypal linked to any bank. So, no matter what they hack.... they can't get any money from me. For local and trusted sites, I do use my credit card...but it has a limit on it.

Tp, hand sanitizer and soap. But I can get out. I am just not finding them.

When you're out at the grocery store (or any store I guess), keep an eye out for hand sanitizer in 1L glass liquor bottles or in a plastic soft drink bottles or even a plastic 1 gallon white vinegar bottle. Could be in any type pf bottle normally used for food/drink.

These could very well be located on an endcap in the HBA section.

I just got back from a local grocery store to get milk and spotted an endcap that had what appeared to be 1L bottles of vodka, but they were actually hand sanitizer made by a distillery.

This stuff was not thick like normal hand sanitizer - it's very fluid like water. You're supposed to spray it on your hands with a spray bottle.

80% alcohol (My bottle of Purell Purell says 62% alcohol. Sam's Club brand says 65%.)

$8 per liter. Not too bad.

My neighbor is paying a local soap maker $10 for 8oz bottles.

Take a look here to familiarize yourself with types of bottles you could expect to find hand sanitizer bottled in.

Could be 1 of 2 reasons maybe, for his not being here in awhile:

1) He's still trying to find his way out of that doghouse he's in.

2) He's gotten out, but is avoiding ECF because of temptation to buy more = another stay in it.

ETA: At least I hope it's just something like those and not something serious like illness, etc.

    My cc got hacked a couple of days ago. I keep forgetting to use the virtual number. My cc company had replacement cards to my door in under 19 hours during a pandemic shutdown. I’m impressed. I was hacked around Christmas too. It’s getting old.

    Yup they got mine just a couple days ago as well. Luckily I got a text and the charge didn't even go through! Got my card way faster than the stated time, sent in a priority Fedex mailer. Probably the least painful credit card hack I've been through.

    Haven't bought any vape stuff lately but I have bought more pairs of shoes than someone whose been on reduced pay should be buying (~70 hour two weeks instead of 80). Luckily we have new work and projects coming in so that's great news for me!
