Magnet shortage, magnetic business cards delayed 2 months. Parts shortage for a machine central to my business. Machine has been down a month.
Talking with other business owners, everyone is affected. Be ready for the supply chain to collapse.

Good news is that food supply hasn't been disrupted yet. Bad news is that could be next.
Hunting season is about to start. Time to stock up the American way.
I don't know, I just got back from my neighborhood market and they're downsizing all of the meat packages, they're all tiny, like the hamburger was in little single serve packs, like they had a handful of family packs, but it was mostly packages of around a pound, and the pork I usually buy the whole loin, and then cut it into chops for the freezer, the whole wasn't available at all, you could buy a half for about 17 bucks, but just a month ago I was buying a whole for around twenty two and change. The onions I used to buy in bags were in sleeves of four to five, I noticed a lot of stuff like that, like they're making a lot of small packages to fill up the space. It's just a local small chain, so they probably don't have the buying power of Publix or Walmart, so I guess it's easier to notice.
Rural areas are business as normal, drive a little out of town to a local market and you may find a plesant sorprise.
We live near Amish country, no supply shortages there. An abundance, in fact.
Actually I live in near an Amish section of town where I'm at too, we do have some Amish shopping spots, but they're a bit pricey, one of our Amish restraunts here made it on Man vs Food, Yoder's. Pies are soo good. But I believe you're on to something, they're going to have rural connections when things get tight, so they'll at least have it, pricey or not.
