In America,I’m in Silicon Valley so people have money and space in their relatively large houses to store lots of stuff. Stores did not limit purchases early so there was panic buying early even here. Popular stores like Trader Joe’s and Costco have lines out the door for several hundred feet (they limit the number of people inside and everyone outside is six feet apart) but less popular grocery stores/green grocers do not based on my limited excursions on bike. Now purchases are limited but still some items run out because it takes more time for someone to stock items on shelves versus people just pulling it off.
