    We have posts on ammo shortages. Long wait times on new boats. Price gouging. Ect. Here are my top supply chain shortages. Now, I’m not the guy to go spend an entire day driving around looking for stuff. But these items are hard to find for the last few weeks at the places I shop at.

    – Miller High Life Light. Both bottles and cans.
    – Size XL regular white cotton t-shirts.
    – Thermocell refills.
    – Size 12 shoes and boots.
    – Spinning reels under $100

    I’ll think of more. What are you seeing?

    cannot find much terminal tackle.
    Tackle boxes or just the clear trays.
    Lumber don’t use it much but hardly could find a 2×4.

    It’s everything- when the global economy stopped, we continued to consume. No manufacturers kept up with the bubble and here we are. LP products, pressure treated lumber, fishing, hunting, camping, auto industry, forestry products, EVERYTHING.
    I can’t get stuff from Mexico, Japan, China, Russia…..nothing. Going to take awhile to get caught up to what we use

    About the only thing ive noticed is bacon prices have gone up and for a time we were on short supply for pork and some other meats. Maybe im more conservative then most but i just don’t have a need to buy much of anything these days other than food. Lord knows i have more than enough fishing tackle and gear to make it through any supply chain apocalypse

    Busch Light Apple

    Oh man that stuff is terrible. Maybe one is good. Then just awful.

    I am a Latte guy through and through but I just could NOT get on board. I was really hoping it would come across as a “beer with a bit of apple in it” but man was it just too sweet for me. A lot of my good buddies (also Latte die hards) raved about it. I drank one of the 12 pack and gave the rest away.

    -Treated 4×4 and 6×6 posts.

    -+1 on reels <$100. Good luck.

    -Basically any fishing rod where you want a specific model and length. Other than if you’re willing to spend $600.

    – 5/17 ounce jigs. Notoriously difficult to find.

    – A decent sweet corn stand in the east metro burbs.

    Waiting for parts for my 50 merc after the voltage regulator started a fire. Over a month now and still waiting on one part. Not fun.

    We will have to grab some lattes together. I have a palet in the garage. I was worried there was going to be a shortage so I bought alot

    Unless yours is the one about receiving, then that was someone else.

    I think its better then all the other apple stuff out there and not as sweet. A couple is good or maybe mix them in once and a while. After about 6 of them last night I had to go to the beer store and get some regulars to flush them down.

    I have a palet in the garage.

    How many cases come on a pallet and what kind of price break did you get?

    The only thing I had a problem getting was a new fishing reel and tackle. Other than that I have not been doing much shopping to notice. My flooring was on back order for 2 months from the manufacture because they could not get the materials to make it.

    100 cases is a typical pallet. I bought 3/4 of a pallet from a guy i fish with who owns the local liquor store for cost. toast

    WOW My wife thought the same thing when this first started and filled the back of her car with Lattes. Don’t worry Jarl, its just like the toilet paper. There is not a problem finding that now.
    We could have a good IDO get-to-together between Sharon’s apple pie and Bearcat’s pallet. toast grin

    Getting word that basic plumbing supplies are being hit to. Ive already can no longer count on my suppliers to have their standard stock on hand. Toilet seats, garbage disposals, faucets and parts for them, well tanks, lift pumps, copper fittings, and much more have had days this summer they where not available. One thing that is not in shortage this summer is people wanting to fix there homes. Im guessing thats not helping the issues with the supply chain.

    I have a landscape company here right now as part of Mrs Grouse’s one woman economic stimulus package. Crew chief said they were booked until November by June 1 of this year That has never happened before he said.

    I can’t find black tungsten worm or flipping weights anywhere. If anybody has a surplus of 3/8, 1/2, or 3/4 oz they’re willing to part with. Im a buyer.

    Bearcat, that’s an excessive amount of Busch beer. Im not a drinker but a Latte is my 1st choice for a once in a while brew. Even I can respect your dedication to a darn good beer brand though. applause toast

    I am assuming they have product on hand or waiting to be picked up. With an unprecedented onslot with work orders and diy purchasers manufacturers were caught off guard estimating for the season. On my end few patio projects were put on hold others were changed to a different project. Things are evening out.
    I had one patio that I was short on brick lucky I had connections with the manufacture to hunt down the brick I needed. Got the last pallet at that time.
