This is happening at local grocery stores in Texas too. They're slammed and many regular items - like aspirin - are out of stock. And yes, it's very similar to what happened at the start of COVID.
🚨 BREAKING

We are getting reports of a run on eggs at Costco locations throughout the country.

Sources describe scenes of pandemonium with people running around the store to stock up on supplies, similar to the beginning of COVID.
