when the covid pandemic first hit and lockdown was looming it was impossible to find freezers, locally and online, even up to the $1K price point.

I'm not talking about pandemic related issues. I'm talking about power disrupting disaster issues.

There's two reasons why most people on the Gulf Coast and lower Eastern seaboard keep their freezers completely stocked: so they have food to eat in the case of an emergency, and because a full freezer stays frozen longer.
