My shopping trips indicate hoarding like the pandemic years. We have so much more experience at it than in 2020. But, some fluff items, non-nutritional like donuts are left on the shelves. Also, low price items are moving or gone already. I did see some very stale brats, i mean gray, consume by end of day, marked down, no sane person would buy them.

Also have noticed there are zero 11" notebooks in Wally's. Been that way for months. All they have are 15", 16", 17" in mid-price range. Meaning once again, consumers are bottom-fishing for some reason.
