If there's any measurable amount of civil disturbance as a consequence of the November 3rd elections, the sheeple will panic-buy and the grocery stores will all run short of TP and staples and lord only knows what else. So you might want to hedge your bets and beat them to the punch. Remember that the 19th Century pioneers traveled from sea to shining sea subsisting on little more than beans and rice and still endured months of daily hard physical labor. So as long as you've got at least that much, you might complain about the lack of variety but you're not likely to starve. And as inconsiderate as the fucks were with their panic-buying from the coronavirus plandemic, under the looming threat of violent civil unrest, I suspect they will do worse still.
Hedge your bets and make sure you've got enough staples and non-perishables laid by for you and yours for a few weeks, and get to it before the locusts have descended and stripped the shelved bare.
