I know there's a thread like this about shortages you're seeing; but I want to get ahead of the game and see what I can do before some of these products are in short supply. So I figured I'd just make a nice clean thread for this.
My family and I are forward-thinkers; we look at trends, watch economic data to see what products are going to be impacted the most with shortages or price increases. Elkhound's thread regarding the new cold war being here and supply chains are going to be hardest hit, made me sit back down and ponder through my wish-lists and to-buy lists. What items do you expect to see in short supply soon or whose prices will increase? If China cuts off trade with us, we could summarize a list with everything. And with rising gas prices that's going to reflect on the grocery bill in general, but! Instead of a generalization, I wanted to look at things a little more detailed.
So from news articles; radio shows; Youtubers; etc what do you foresee being in short supply and or expensive in the near future? Things haven't inflated out of hand too terribly yet where I am (minus the gasoline). My list is short so far, but I'll add to it as I can think of more. If you have anything to add, I'd love to know what you foresee being in short supply; high demand; increasing price.
- Gasoline; Diesel and Kerosene Containers (As people try to stock up on the rising cost of fuel)
- Rubber Boots
- Edible Oils
- Coffee
- Semi-conductors (Cars; electronics etc.)
- Vodka
- Wheat and cereals (If the MENA region is hit with shortages due to Ukraine not exporting, I could see the US exporting our additional reserves to them)
- WD40 / WD30
- Chicken and Turkey - Mentioned by Ladycat
- Animal Food (due to poultry shortages)
- Animal Feed (Ukraine crisis)
- Pasta - Mentioned by Ladycat
- Garden Seeds
- Canning Lids, Ball & Tattler Reuseable
- Pharmaceuticals: Vitamins; OTC medicine; cat, dog, farm animal immunizations
